Downhole System Enables Real-Time Reservoir-Fluid-Distribution Mapping

摘要

This paper presents the basic concepts and architecture of the Eni Reservoir Electromagnetic Mapping(E-REMM)borehole electromagnetic(EM)mapping system that integrates borehole EM methodology with surface EM methods to provide real-time mapping of reservoir-fluid distribution during production or injection.By helping well teams know how distribution of hydrocarbons and water changes over time and space,the system addresses a fundamental requirement for managing the reservoir to maximize the recovery factor,optimize production,and reduce associated costs.
