Análisis del Sistema de Manejo de Agua en el Campo Shushufindi

Abstract

In this work an analysis of the water management system in the Shushufindi field is showed. Based on a set of key performance indicators and control charts which allowed to measure the performance of the process. This in order to define limits associated to the amount of water produced in the phases of separation, transfer and elimination. We used production forecast data based on the declination curves methodology combined with the capacity of the surface facilities and the re-injection potentials of the active wells of each of the field stations. This through a graphical tool developed in excel, and complemented with a mass balance using the process flow diagrams of each station. From this proposal of performance monitoring and evaluation it showed that certain structures must be repowered so that the field stations can handle the water prospects. As the structures are more susceptible to an overload injection booster pumps, multistage injection pumps in the water management system. As well as the set of re-injectors in each of the stations. This is attributable to the production peaks estimated through profiles until year 2027.
