Numerical Investigation of the Osmatic Flow Impact on the Load Recovery and Early Well Performance
Abstract: The complexity of shale system coupled with the mystery of low fracturing fluid recovery has puzzled many researchers. Field reports from hydraulic fracturing operations performed on shale formation have highlighted the low recovery of the fracturing fluid. The fate of the hydraulic fracturing fluid is still controversial issue. However, literature has attributed the low load recovery to either trapping into the natural or created micro-fracture or imbibition to the matrix. …

Chemical Sand Consolidation: An Overview
Abstract: Sand production from reservoir is a critical issue related to oil/gas fields because it gives rise to many serious problems in oil/gas production. Sand production from wells can damage the surface and subsurface facilities as well as it can reduce the well productivity, thus it can have adverse effects on economy of oil production. Sand control is requisite to economical extraction of oil/gas from the unconsolidated formations. So the development …

Review of Radial Drilling Technology and Viable Prospect in Mature Field Development in the Niger Delta
Abstract: A review of some Niger Delta oil field reservoirs indicates that most of the reservoirs are at the mature stages, thereby vulnerable to challenges such as; coning due to reduced size of the oil column, low oil production and lack of access to the residual oil trapped between existing wells of the mature field. Due to coning occurrences in the Niger-Delta oil field, most wells have been shut-in and a …

Effect of Variation in LPG Composition on Heating Value Using Aspen HYSYS
Abstract: Liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) is becoming an increasingly important part of the world’s energy sources. The determination of the heating value of LPG is of great economic importance in domestic and industrial purposes. This paper discusses the effects of impurities (e.g., moisture, H2S) and the presence of other hydrocarbons (e.g., ethane, pentane, propene, and butene) on the heating value of LPG fuel with different propane to butane. Different LPG composition …

An Overview of Recent Advances in Viscoelastic Surfactant based Fracturing Fluid Technology
Abstract: High percentages of oil and gas wells are hydraulically fractured worldwide in order to make economically producible at an efficient production rate. Cross-linked polymer fluids are in use for decades to stimulate oil and gas wells. Even though these fluids exhibit exceptional viscosity, thermal stability, proppant transportability and fluid leak-off control; extensive formation damage by polymer residues demanded a clean fracturing fluid technology. New generation of fracturing fluids based upon …

Breathing prediction of fracture deviated wellbore through flooding mechanism
Abstract: Wellbore breathing is a common occurrence during drilling operations, but the down hole mechanism and how it manifests itself in surface and subsurface processes, is not well understood. It often result in a drilling fluid gain at surface and are misidentified as a kick, resulting in unneeded shut in periods and associated non-productive time (NPT). Further, misidentification of wellbore breathing as underbalance often results in increases in mud weight, which …

Estimation of Dulling Rate and Bit Tooth Wear Using Drilling Parameters and Rock Abrasiveness
Abstract: Optimisation of the drilling operations is becoming increasingly important as it can significantly reduce the oil well development cost. One of the major objectives in oil well drilling is to increase the penetration rate by selecting the optimum drilling bit based on offset wells data, and adjust the drilling factors to keep the bit in good condition during the operation. At the same time it is important to predict the …
