TEST EXERCISES

Using a computer aided approach, solve the problems below.


Instruction: You may use any programming tool/Language: Excel VBA, Python, MATLAB, C# etc.

Exercise One (From L.P. Dake Exercise 9.2)


A wedge-shaped reservoir is suspected of having a fair strong natural water drive. The geometry of
the reservoir-aquifer system is shown below. The reservoir was at bubble point at the initial condition
with no gas cap (m=0). Develop a computer program that will Perform history matching of the
reservoir using the production and PVT data given below.

Hint: Use Klins et al paper: “A Polynomial approach to the Van Everdingen - Hurst dimensionless
variables for water encroachment”

The PVT data are given in the table below:

Exercise Two
The equation given by Hall and Yarborough (Ikoku, 1984) is given below:
2
0.06125𝑃𝑝𝑟 𝑡𝑒 −1.2(1−𝑡)
𝑧=
𝑦
Where t = 1 / Tpr, and y = the reduced density which is obtained as the solution of the equation:

2 𝑦 + 𝑦2 + 𝑦3 − 𝑦4
F(y) = −0.06125𝑃𝑝𝑟 𝑡𝑒 −1.2(1−𝑡) + − (14.76𝑡 − 9.76𝑡 2 + 4.58𝑡 3 )𝑦 2
(1 − 𝑦)3
+ (90.7𝑡 − 242.2𝑡 2 + 42.4𝑡 3 )𝑦 (2.18+2.82𝑡)

Ppr is defined as the Pseudo Reduced Pressure; while Tpr is defined as the Pseudo Reduced
Temperature.

Ppc = 677 + 15.0 γg - 37.5 γg2; and Tpc = 168 + 325 γg - 12.5 γg2, where γg is the specific gravity.

For Natural gas with specific gravity of 0.7, at a pressure of 2000 psia and a temperature of 180 deg
Fahrenheit, use the equations above to calculate the z-factor, considering the presence of the non-
hydrocarbon components: N2 = 0.5%, CO2 = 2% and H2S = 0.1%.
