Title : The reservoir productivity evaluation by utilizing flow jet pump and bottom hole pressure gauges in a horizontal oil well of wafra joint operations
Abstract:
Wafra Joint Operations (WJO) is the operator for exploration & production of hydrocarbon resources from the onshore partitioned zone located between Saudi Arabia & Kuwait on behalf of Kuwait Gulf Oil Company & Saudi Arabian Chevron. Some of the wells in this area are completed by 7in casing(horizontal) and they are produced by progressing cavity pumps. There was uncertainty in the formation productivity index due to the small size, high doge leg (DLS), and shallow setting depth of the PCP in addition to the lack of measuring the flowing bottom hole pressure (FBHP and representative shut-in bottom hole pressure (SBHP) for the average reservoir pressure measurements.
