7 Reservoir III

Wednesday, 17 April
Bjørnson
Technical
In the energy landscape of the Norwegian Continental Shelf (NCS), a significant challenge lies in the environmental impact of water injection and excessive production practices, contributing to high energy consumption and CO2 emissions. Water production control techniques such as ICDs and chemical wellbore treatment to reduce water production have been actively employed on NCS. Continuous advancement of methods, workflows and tools requires continuous theoretical and practical improvements. This session will provide insights on water control mechanisms and approaches that companies take on the NCS. By addressing the environmental concerns associated with water injection, presenting practical workflows for AICV and ICV design and operations, and emphasizing the broader applicability of these methodologies, the authors will contribute invaluable insights to the ongoing discourse on environmentally conscious energy practices in reservoir engineering.
