Title: Some Dynamic Problems on Bottom Water Coning During High Water Cut Stage in Sandstone Bottom-Water Reservoir
Abstract: : In Tarim oilfield, there exist a great number of sand bottom-water reservoirs, where the output accounts for a large proportion of the total amount. At present most bottom-water reservoirs are experiencing significant bottom water coning, rapid increase of water-cut, serious production decline and great difficulty in maintaining the stablilized prodction. Therefore it is of vital to know accurately the water coning behavior. This paper made an in-depth study on some problems of reservoir performances which are researchers concerned most, such as: calculation of water coning scale, calculation of water-flooded volume of bottom-water reservoirs and calculation of volumetric sweep efficiency of the bottom-water reservoir etc. We also provided a practical calculation method for field application. Calculation made for a certain Tarim oilfield demonstrated that the results calculated in this way are reasonable and reliable, the method used is correct, and can accurately represent the practical performances of the oilfield.
