Increased Oil Production and Reserves from Improved Completion Techniques in the211 Bluebell Field, Uinta Basin, Utah. Quarterly Technical Progress Report, April 1-211 June 30, 1998

摘要

The objective of this project is to increase oil production and reserves in the211u001eUinta Basin by demonstrating improved completion techniques. Low productivity of 211u001eUinta Basin wells is caused by gross production intervals of several thousand 211u001efeet that contain perforated thief zones, water-bearing zones, and unperforated 211u001eoil-bearing intervals. Geologic and engineering characterization and computer 211u001esimulation of the Green River and Wasatch Formations in the Bluebell field will 211u001edetermine reservoir heterogeneities related to fractures and depositional trends. 211u001eThis will be followed by drilling and recompletion of several wells to 211u001edemonstrate improved completion techniques based on the reservoir 211u001echaracterization. Transfer of the project results will be an ongoing component of 211u001ethe project.
