Identification And Analysis Of Problem Wells In A Mature West Texas Waterflood

Presenters

Mark Fleming, Chevron USA Inc.

By compiling foreman's costs in a West Texas field, a method was determined for identifying problem wells and keeping a close liaison between field personnel and engineers in the office. Plots of marginal water and oil production as a function of both oil price and pulling costs were generated and used by field personnel and engineering for identifying unprofitable wells.
