Volumetric Reservoirs

Problem 1:
We have a single phase gas reservoir with the following field data:

Contour
member
Contour Area
(Acre)
Thickness
(ft)
Pressure
(Psia)
Water
Saturation
Porosity
1 551 5 4200 0.34 0.22
2 410 6 4185 0.25 0.22
3 290 5 4102 0.2 0.22
4 142 4 4055 0.2 0.22
5 80 5 4044 0.2 0.22
6 0 - - - -

1. Please calculate the reservoir volume using trapezoidal rule and pyramidal rule. What is
difference you get using the two different integration rules?
2. Pleasecalculatetheareaaveragedandvolumeaveragepressureofthereservoir
3. Pleasecalculatetheoriginalgasinplace,usingthetrapezoidalruleforthereservoir
volume
4. If the gas formation volume factor at the average initial pressure is 0.00453 cu ft/SCF,
what is the original gas in place in units of SCF?
5. Calculate the recovery factor after producing 1 MMM SCF
6. Calculate recovery factor at abundant pressure of 500 psia with Bga=2.89 RB/MSCF and
Bgi =1.15 RB/MSCF
7. Considering a water influx into the reservoir with 60% volumetric sweep efficiency,
calculate the recovery factor at 700 psia as an abundant pressure with formation volume
factor of Bga =2.5 RB/MSCF and Sgr=0.15.






Problem 2:

Given the following data for saturated oil reservoir:
Hydrocarbon Area =25,000 Acres
Net productive thickness=50 ft with the gas/oil 10 ft from the top
Porosity =20%
Average Swi =30%
Initial reservoir pressure =3000 psia
Boi =1.68 resbbl/STB
Rsoi =700 scf/STB

1- Calculate OOIP
2- Calculate original gas in place
3- Calculate the original solution gas in place
4- What are the recovery factor and the remaining reserve when 5 MMSTB of oil has been
produced at 2500 psia?
5- Given the ultimate recovery factor for such Gas cap drive mechanism in a similar
reservoir estimated to be 30%, calculate the ultimate oil reserve for the given the
reservoir
