Water Flooding Injection Rate Tutorial

The document contains two exercises related to water flooding in an oil reservoir. The first exercise involves calculating the water injection rate for a new injection well with specific parameters, while the second exercise focuses on calculating the water injection rate before and after breakthrough time in a 5-spot pattern. Key data such as reservoir pressure, water saturation, and injection pressures are provided for the calculations.

1 WATER FLOODING TUTORIAL 5

Excersis-1: A new injection well is to be placed in service in


an oil reservoir where the reservoir pressure has declined below
the bubble-point pressure. Current reservoir pressure is 800 psi.
Bottom-hole injection pressure is expected to be 2600 psi.
Calculate the water injection rate early in the life of the well
when the radius to the water and oil banks are 200 and 388 feet,
respectively. Assume the injection well skin value is zero.
Other data are given below:

Φ = 20%
Swi=26% , (dfw/dsw) at swf = 3.2
Average water saturation in the swept area at BT= 56%
h= 8 feet
Ko at Swir = 10 md
Kro at Swir= 1
Krw at average water saturation at breakthrough=0.3
Assume Krw at any water saturation > average SwBT =0.8
μo=0.9 cp
μw= 0.6 cp
rw= 0.33 ft

Excersis-2: Assume the well in Excersis-1 above is part of an


80 acre 5-spot pattern where the diagonal distance (d) between
the injector and the producer= 1320 ft. bottom hole pressure of
the producer is set at 500 psi.

1- Calculate the water injection rate before breakthrough


time at 80435 bbl of water injected
2- Calculate the water injection rate at 350000 bbl of water
injected
