7. Discussion
7.1. Unique Determination of the Six Model Coefficients
- At the beginning of production and the initial stage of well exploitation, skin S(T) grows linearly with time from its initial value of zero. Therefore, only one parameter can be determined from the skin curve S(T). The other five parameters must be chosen from values commonly reported in the literature;
- When the skin curve shows a tendency towards stabilisation, three parameters can be determined from the skin vs. time, and the other three parameters must be chosen from values commonly reported in the literature.
7.2. Incorporating More Complex Reservoir Physics
8. Summary and Conclusions
- A new form of the critical retention function is derived based on a pore space comprised of a size-distributed bundle of capillaries. The new formulation allows for including the effects of connate water on fines detachment during oil production;
- Connate water saturation can significantly decrease maximum retention function by preventing fines detachment from the pores filled by the immobile water;
- The new equations show that skin growth is more severe in reservoirs with low connate water saturation, where more particles can be detached by the mobile oil phase;
- The axi-symmetric flow of oil towards a well with the mobilisation, transport, and straining of fine particles under the presence of connate water allows for an analytical solution. In the case of a large concentration of suspended particles, where the retention rate is proportional to the suspension function, F(C), the expressions for the suspended and strained particle concentrations are implicit. For the two cases where the function F(C) is quadratic or for the case where the suspended concentration is sufficiently small to assume F(C) = C, the expressions are explicit;
- The analytical model allows the quantification of the growth of well impedance and skin during fines mobilization;
- Analysis of 10 field production wells shows good agreement between the data and the analytical model. The formation damage parameters obtained from tuning are within commonly reported intervals;
- The final model contains six parameters which describe the extent of fines migration. Depending on whether the skin history curve covers the initial productivity decline or if it contains the progression towards productivity stabilisation, the curve can be used to determine 1–3 parameters. Thus the full determination of the system requires laboratory coreflooding. An alternative approach is to assume typical values of a subset of the parameters from published research in similar rocks;
- Following tuning, the analytical model provides accurate estimates of the well skin growth until stabilization, including the final skin value, as well as the size of the formation damage zone around the well. This information allows field operators to make informed decisions on well design and well-stimulation procedures.
