• Contacts from material balance were compared with those observed from the
simulation model:
• Moved OWC from the simulation reasonably matches 4D
• Moved OWC from material balance and simulation model are in alignment
• The difference is possibly associated to missing sand volume unresolved by
seismic (below seismic resolution injectites)
• Material balance can be used, in addition to well performance evaluation, 4D
seismic and simulation modelling, to monitor the contact movements
effectively. Results can be used to control well operations and placement of
new wells.
