SC07 Gas EOR in Tight Unconventionals
Sponsored by: SPE
Sunday, 19 June 2022, 8:00 a.m.–5:00 p.m. | Houston, Texas
Who Should Attend
Reservoir engineers, production and completion engineers, process engineers (facilities), EOR technical management, and regulatory professionals.
Objectives
To learn about and share experiences in gas EOR in tight unconventionals. The course lectures and visual presentations are video recorded and made available to course participants. The instructor has worked on a number of commercial gas EOR projects in tight unconventionals
Course Content
Gas-based EOR in tight unconventionals is a growing application to tap the vast unproduced oil and condensate resources in liquid-rich shale basins. The Huff-n-Puff process now involves several hundred wells in the Eagle Ford, and pilots are planned or ongoing in all other liquid-rich basins (Bakken, Permian, and Montney).
The course will discuss the Huff-n-Puff gas EOR process specifically, but will also address relevant fundamentals of displacement-based gas EOR methods (miscibility, vaporization, and displacement) in tight unconventionals.
Topics:
- Introduction to Unconventional gas EOR
- Summary of gas EOR methods and recovery mechanisms
- What makes unconventional gas EOR different than conventional?
- Huff-n-Puff process
- Miscibility, PVT and injection gas selection relevant to H-n-P process
- Review ongoing industry gas EOR projects in North America unconventionals
- Operational considerations including compressor requirements
- Gas containment issues
- Basic gas EOR economics for unconventionals
- Reservoir modeling strategies
- Alternative-to-HnP/Displacement EOR processes in tight unconventionals
- Pre-worked example problems with Q&A and discussion
