Geological Investigation of Block 17, Offshore Angola

Abstract (Summary)

This report is an analysis of well production data in the Alpha, Beta, and Delta fields in Block 17 in offshore Angola in order to explain the reservoir behavior. It was compiled by identifying regional trends and anomalies in the production and injection data. Because the production wells in this block are pressure-supported by means of injection, understanding of the dynamics between the wells becomes all the more crucial for design and implementation of effective field development plans and reservoir management strategies. What follows is an assessment of the communication between injecting and producing wells. The basis for these case studies is understanding how heterogeneities affect the fluid dynamics between the wells in these fields.
