Challenges:
A midstream company needed to evaluate options for replacing aging vertical wells with horizontals in several gas storage pools
Solutions:
The integrated models of the gas storage pools incorporate 3D seismic and petrophysical analysis and performance data
3D geological models were constructed, followed by the preparation and calibration of dynamic reservoir simulation models
As part of the current well replacement study, some of the models were updated and calibrated to match recent performance data from the field
Forecast scenarios are being investigated to determine the optimal well replacement strategy for select gas storage pools
