Gestión de información para la caracterización de reservorios complejos en rocas ígneas del Ecuador.

Abstract

In the conventional reservoirs characterization, is common to use local data to validated and comparisons with information from neighboring fields are used to reduce uncertainty in the results. But every day there is more hydrocarbons discovery at unconventional or complex deposits, information management with a different methodology is required, thus allowing the improvement of analysis results and the reduction of uncertainty. This thesis project highlights the reservoir characterization process in igneous or volcanic rocks, and includes a step an step for data analysis based on the project management with critical chain, where identify available and unavailable information resources, data quality, time schedule by activity, critical variables, level of uncertainty that can be identify in the methodology applied during the complex reservoir characterization at igneous rocks with hydrocarbons based on the available information from Armadillo Block 55 field study area. Finally, a management methodology guide for information administration resources is developed, which will help technicians in the geosciences areas to characterize complex reservoirs; and, to the managements, making of assertive decision for the investment of acquisition of new information resources with technological advances, guaranteeing the economic success results of the exploitation project and future field development contingent plan of complex zones in igneous rocks from Ecuador.
