Estudio de la completación de dumpflooding modificado que fusiona las tuberías de inyección y producción

Abstract

The water injection method causes an increase in pressure in the reservoir. These projects require a clean water source and surface treatment facilities achieve the minimum specifications. But water from production wells and traditional above-ground facilities require high costs before being used.

The “modified dumpflooding” completion represents a cost-effective solution for Ecuadorian mature fields, it is a redesign and combination version of the original dual concentric completion and dumpflooding. This allows companies to use only one well for water production and inject it into the depleted reservoir through a closed system. In addition, it helps save costs in surface installations, reduce human exposure to high-pressure lines over long distances, and eliminate operating expenses for chemicals and equipment maintenance.

In this study, nodal, movement and stress analyze are performed on all pipes and mechanical components. These analyzes are critical to helping companies understand how current water injection project design is performing, reduce bottlenecks, and improve completion performance.
