Iv Nodal analysis.
UniTest® PTA Software for dynamic nodal analysis.
Data sheet with nodal analysis, diagnosis and areas of opportunity.
These rates had to some extent been derived from KPC Consultant 1's nodal analysis study.
Also provides dynamic nodal analysis and IPR and Outflow calculations.
The Panel has carefully considered the capabilities and the limitations of the nodal analysis technique as outlined above.
In short, nodal analysis is a model of an individual well, while reservoir simulation models an entire reservoir system.
For example, KPC's Consultant 4 prepared a nodal analysis for the two reservoirs they studied.
As noted above, nodal analysis is a well-by-well analytical technique focusing on the productive potential of individual wells.
SPICE1 was coded in FORTRAN and used nodal analysis to construct the circuit equations.
In order to replicate real world conditions, and to estimate blow-out volumes,certain limitations must be imposed on the nodal analysis.
In fact, this argument does underline the basic limitation of nodal analysis for estimating blow-out volumes.
By focusing on outflow performance, nodal analysis generates what is essentially a maximum production volume per unit of time for each well.
KPC's reservoir simulation consultants also relied to one extent or another on nodal analysis as part of their work.
Nodal analysis: The number of voltage variables, and hence simultaneous equations to solve, equals the number of nodes minus one.
The Panel's own petroleum engineers prepared an independent nodal analysis of a large number of the most prolific wells and completions in the Greater Burgan.
Nodal analysis considers the ability of an individual well configuration to produce oil, and it can therefore be said that it is based on"outflow" performance.
Accordingly, the Panel instructed its petroleum engineering consultants to take these constriction effects into account in their nodal analysis studies.
Nodal analysis relies on a mathematical description of an individual well with consideration for well bore configuration and reservoir characteristics.
The Panel directed its petroleum engineering consultants to prepare an independent nodal analysis of a large number of the most prolific wells and completions in these reservoirs.
The Panel concludes that nodal analysis is, to the extent it is used properly, appropriate for the prediction and estimation of the oil blow-out volumes lost in this case.
The Panel considers that the ability to set adjustment factors to take into account these real world conditions is an advantage of the nodal analysis approach to measuring blow-out volumes.
As with the nodal analysis work undertaken for the Greater Burgan, the results were adjusted for natural reservoir decline rates and for water production.
Given the relatively small volumes of crude oil claimed in these five studies, and the lack of methodological deficiencies,the Panel did not request independent nodal analysis with respect to these reservoirs.
The Panel notes that the nodal analysis work performed by its petroleum engineering consultants effectively confirmed the volumes calculated by these consultants using the reservoir simulation method.
For the Raudhatain and Sabiriyah losses estimated by KPC's Consultant 4,the calculated loss of crude oil using this nodal analysis method was within 1 per cent of the claimed amount.
This consultant also prepared a nodal analysis estimating the same loss of crude oil to be 708 million barrels of oil, taking into account well-head damage and water production, and applying a 35 per cent reduction for other factors.
The Panel will, accordingly, consider the volumes estimated by KPC's reservoir simulation consultants,together with all other available information(such as volumes estimated using the nodal analysis method) in assessing the blow-out volumes suffered in this case.
Accordingly, the Panel will use the nodal analysis studies prepared by its own petroleum engineering consultants as a point of reference in assessing the reservoir simulation studies prepared by KPC's consultants.
As a well-by-well tool, nodal analysis is not capable of considering the impact of a blow-out in a neighbouring well, whereas production from neighbouring wells in the same reservoir would be considered by a reservoir simulation model.
