Description / back cover text: Well activation is one of the most
important aspects in the oil and gas industries and nitrogen gas is
predominately used. The gas, being light, is sent down the
producing reservoir which will enhance the production or improve
the flow of crude oil. In addition to the methods used to increase
production there are several problems like sand production and
water production from the producing wells. Sand production occurs
when the destabilizing stresses at the formation face exceed the
strength of the natural arching tendencies and/or grain-to-grain
cementation strength. Ideally, during oil production, the formation
should be porous, permeable and well consolidated through which
hydrocarbons can easily flow into the production wells. But
sometimes, especially during production from unconsolidated
sandstone reservoirs, the produced hydrocarbons may also carry
large amounts of sand into the well bore and sand entering
production wells is one of the oldest problems faced by oil
companies and one of the toughest to solve. These unconsolidated
formations may not restrain grain movement, and produce sand along
with the fluids especially at high rates. Water production is also
a problem that many reservoir or production engineers face in
day-to-day life. As engineers we should be able to decide whether
water control solutions should be applied or not. The excess
production of water is caused by the depletion of the reservoir and
simply sweeps away most of the oil that the reservoir can produce.
This book gives an information how well activation using nitrogen
is carried out, and how sand control and water control issues can
be resolved.
