Optimization of Mature Floods
Almost 70% of global oil production originates from mature conventional fields, which face decline rates as high as 10% per year. Enhancing efficiency in these fields reduces supply risks, minimizes the need for drilling in remote areas, and supports a smoother energy transition.
Streamsim Technologies' tools facilitate pattern surveillance, efficient full-field simulation, screening and classification of geological models, and history matching and forecasting under uncertainty for IOR/EOR processes. Together, these tools help engineers optimize performance and maximize recovery from mature conventional floods.
Streamline Simulation
3DSL® is our streamline-based reservoir flow simulator. 3DSL can be run in reduced-physics "Surveillance" mode or full-physics "Simulation" mode.
studioSL
studioSL is a Windows/Linux desktop application that houses our workflows ranging from reservoir pattern surveillance to probablistic reservoir forecasting.
Surveillance
Use studioSL's data-driven technology to quantify injector and producer patterns, remaining oil in place, and then forecast low-cost operational decisions on mature floods.
Sweep Management
In mature conventional floods, significant optimization can be achieved by adjusting well rates to realign patterns, enhancing sweep efficiency, and reducing fluid cycling.
History Matching
Use streamlines to modify gridblock properties between wells, assuming that well-level mismatches can be corrected by adjusting static geological properties.
Uncertainty Quantification
EVOLVE® works with an ensemble of models to quantify the uncertainty in NPV arising from geological and simulation uncertainties, forecast scenarios, and economic parameters.
