摘要

Effective production-decline analysis is crucial to thernsuccessful management of declining oil and gas wells. Fromrnanalysis of declines caused by reservoir conditions, engineersrncan generate valuable information such as reserve estimatesrn(useful for property value appraisal) and production forecastsrn(useful for generating cash-flow forecasts). In short, arnproduction-decline analysis is at the heart of many economicrndecisions about the future of a well or property.rnBecause decline analysis is so important, engineers arernfaced with a significant problem when the conventionalrnmethods of analysis break down. For example, wellsrncompleted in fluvial, meander-belt systems such as thosernfound in the Piceance basin, Colorado often do not follow thernconventional production decline patterns established withrnexponential and hyperbolic equations. Rather, the declinernreflects the complex interaction arising fromrncompartmentalized, point-bar reservoirs that are commingledrnat the wellbore. This paper presents an improved method ofrnanalyzing these complex declines using a numerical simulator.rnCentral to this method is the definition of six differentrnreservoir types, each of which can be subjected to differentrnboundary conditions and hydraulic fracture options (i.e., withrnor without fracture, different fracture orientations, differentrnfracture lengths, etc.). While there are other configurationsrnavailable in nature, these reservoir types form a sufficientrnrepresentation for modeling purposes of therncompartmentalized reservoirs likely to be encountered andrnproduced.rnThe modeling itself is done in two steps. The first step is tornmodel the individual responses of the reservoir types andrnsuperpose the responses in various combinations until a roughrnmatch of actual production history is achieved. This bestmatchrncombination is then used as a starting point for thernsecond step: modeling the complete system allowingrncommingling at the wellbore. Further model runs are madernuntil an acceptable match is found. This match is the basis forrnpredicting future performance.
