Economic Pilot-Floods of Carbonate Reservoirs Using a Pump-Aided Reverse Dump-Flood Technique

摘要

Successful waterflooding in carbonate reservoirs depends greatly on the ability of hte operator to make technical and economic adjustments in a specific area, due to the heterogeneous nature of carbonate reservoirs. It is important to systematically consider all tools available in waterflood system design, including laboratory testing, waterflood design using computer simulators, pilot flood tests and waterflood monitoring.
