NAM-PW-103 (Canada West)
CHALLENGE
Client was seeking to deploy a technology that is simple, and that deals directly with the root cause of the production decline — loss of worm-hole flow paths. Oil production was lost two months after well completion resulting in only water being produced.
As a low volume producer, a cost effective solution, in conjunction with a workover, was initiated to remediate the well.
SOLUTION
Improve connectivity to the reservoir by re-initiating worm holes using electro-hydraulic stimulation technology.
Unconsolidated sandstone (CHOPS) reservoir was treated with BLUESPARK® to re-initiate production.
Approximately 2.5 m (8 ft.) of perforated interval were treated with our wireline conveyed tool.
Treatment was completed in half a day.
Production rates and fluid levels were both monitored for comparison to pretreatment values.
CONDITIONS
Depth: 450m (1500ft)
Unconsolidated
Sandstone
OUTCOME
Worm-holes were re-initiated allowing oil to flow into the well.
Client data from the BLUESPARK® treated well showed an average production increase from 0 bbl/day to 5.9 bbl/day for 90 days post stimulation.
Sustained production over one year had averaged 5.7 bbl/day.
