PETR3511/PETR8053 FINAL EXAM 2010

SECTION A (30 Marks): There are six questions in this section. Please provide your answers on the answer book, clearly stating the question number.

1) (5%) Define dissolved gas-oil ratio, s R , and volatilized oil-gas ratio, v R .

Assuming a single-phase oil reservoir, what is the relation between s R and v R ?

2) (5%) Define the compressibility for gas. Discuss how the reservoir pressure

affects the compressibility for the ideal gas.

3) (5%) For a single phase oil reservoir, use the initial free phase oil, foi N , and the

initial dissolved gas-oil ratio, si R , to define OOIP (original oil in place) and OGIP

(original gas in place).

4) (5%) Use two-phase oil formation volume factor to define the oil phase

expansivity. Discuss how the oil phase expansivity changes as the reservoir

pressure decreases.

5) (5%) Define the relative permeability and explain why neither of the two relativepermeabilities in a two-phase reservoir can ever be greater than 1.

6) (5%) Name three factors that affect the hydraulic diffusivity. Discuss how each of

them affects the magnitude of the hydraulic diffusivity.

SECTION B (20 Marks): There is one question in this section. Please provide your

answers on the answer book, clearly stating the question number.

A small gas reservoir has an initial pressure of 3000 psia and temperature of 220F.The following table gives the pressure and production history.

Complete the following questions:

1. Calculate the gas expansivity, g E , at the end of each interval.

2. Calculate the accumulative production gas volume at the reservoir condition at

the end of each interval.3. Assuming no water influx and neglecting formation compressibility, calculate the

OGIP using production data at the end of each interval

4. Discuss your calculated OGIPs and explain why they indicate a waterdrive.

5. Assuming the real OGIP is equal to scf 6101000 , use the MBE,

W B BGF gig fgi += , to calculate the water influx, W , at the end of each

interval.

SECTION C (10 Marks): There is one question with two parts in this section. Please

provide your answers on the answer book, clearly stating the question number.

PART I (5%): For a one-dimensional incompressible flow system as defined in thefollowing graph, the pressure distribution along the flow path, ( ) x p , is determined bythe permeability distribution only. Use the information given in the graph to

determine the pressure distribution along the flow path.

PART II (5%): Assuming the flowing liquid in Part I is an ideal gas and k k k == 21 ,

the relation between the gas density, , and the gas pressure, p , can be defined as

p = ( is a constant). Assuming the viscosity as , prove that the Darcy

velocity, xu , can be calculated as
