Reservoir Simulation-Based Modeling for Characterizing Longwall Methane Emissions and Gob Gas Venthole Production
Reservoir simulation-based modeling for characterizing longwall methane emissions and gob gas venthole production C.O. Karacan , G.S. Esterhuizen, S.J. Schatzel, W.P. Diamond National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH), PiPinsburgh Research Laboratory, United States Abstract Longwall mining alters the fluid-flow-related reservoir properties of the rocks overlying and underlying an extracted panel due to fracturing and relaxation of the strata. These mining-related disturbances create new pressure depletion zones and new flow paths for gas migration and may cause unexpected or uncontrolled migration ofgas into the underground workplace. One common technique to control methane emissions in longwall mines is to drill vertical gob gas ventholes into each longwall panel to capture the methane within the overlying fractured strata before it enters the work environment. Thus, it is important to optimize the well parameters, e.g., the borehole diameter, and the length and position of the slotted casing interval relative to the hctured gas-bearing zones. This paper presents the development and results of a comprehensive, "dynamic," three-dimensional reservoir model of a typical multipanel Pittsburgh coalbed longwall mine. The alteration of permeability fields in and above the panels as a result of the mining- induced disturbances has been estimated from mechanical modeling of the overlying rock mass. Model calibration was performed through history matching the gas production &om gob gas ventholes in the study area. Results presented in this paper include a simulation of gas flow patterns from the gas-bearing zones in the overlying strata to the mine environment, as well as the influence of completion practices on optimizing gas production from gob gas ventholes. -
Hydrocarbon Reservoir Modeling: Comparison Between Theoretical and Real Petrophysical Properties from the Namorado Field (Brazil) Case Study
Hydrocarbon reservoir modeling: comparison between theoretical and real petrophysical properties from the Namorado Field (Brazil) case study. Hashimoto, Marcos Deguti, Student from the Master in Oil Engineering E-mail: [email protected] 1. Abstract In reservoir characterization and modeling, due to information-acquisition’s high costs, frequently only indirect measurements of the subsurface properties such as seismic reflection data is available. In the worst-case scenario, only regional geological information is at disposal. In an attempt to provide deeper insights over the study area, with low costs, modeling synthetic reservoirs has been a reliable tool to better characterize reservoir/prospects. In this work two synthetic hydrocarbons reservoirs were modelled recurring to two different approaches to characterize Earth’s subsurface petrophysical (facies, porosity and permeability) and elastic (P-wave, S-wave and density) properties. In the second half of 2013, during the IST (Instituto Superior Técnico) Internship, a synthetic reservoir was conceived and modeled using Namorado Field’s (Campos Basin, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil) as reference. During this intern public data, knowledge, papers, books and dissertations were gathered. In order to validate and certify this outcome, a new synthetic reservoir was proposed, but this time using real data for this field provided by the Brazilian Oil & Gas Agency (ANP). This dissertation addresses the comparison between the theoretical and real synthetic reservoir results, validating the first reservoir step-by-step. The major conclusion reached confirms that the theoretical synthetic reservoir outputs reliable results, however with caution in some of the modelled properties. Keywords: Hydrocarbon synthetic reservoir, Reservoir Modeling, Rock Physics Model, Petrophysical properties, Namorado Field, Campos Basin (Brazil). -

Dr. Hamdi Tchelepi Principal Advisor I certify that I have read this dissertation and that, in my opinion, it is fully adequate in scope and quality as a dissertation for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Dr. Khalid Aziz Advisor I certify that I have read this dissertation and that, in my opinion, it is fully adequate in scope and quality as a dissertation for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. Dr. Roland Horne Approved for the University Committee on Graduate Studies. iii Abstract The development of a general-purpose reservoir simulation framework for coupled systems of unstructured reservoir models and advanced wells is the subject of this dissertation. Stanford's General Purpose Research Simulator (GPRS) serves as the base for the new framework. In this work, we made signi¯cant contributions to GPRS, in terms of architectural design, extensibility, computational e±ciency, and new advanced well modeling capabilities. We designed and implemented a new architectural framework, in which the fa- cilities (man-made) model is treated as a separate component and promoted to the same level as the reservoir (natural) component. -
Wireline Logging
Petrophysics MSc Course Notes Wireline Logging 5. WIRELINE LOGGING 5.1 What is a Wireline Log A log is a continuous recording of a geophysical parameter along a borehole. GAMMA RAY (GR) Wireline logging is a conventional form of logging that employs a measurement tool 0 API UNITS 100 suspended on a cable or wire that suspends the tool and carries the data back to the 620 surface. These logs are taken between drilling episodes and at the end of drilling. Recent developments also allow some measurements to be made during drilling. The tools required to make these measurements are attached to the drill string behind the bit, and do not use a wire relying 630 instead on low band-width radio communication of data through the conductive drilling mud. Such data is called MWD (measurement while drilling) for simple drilling data, and LWD (logging while drilling) for measurements analogous 640 to conventional wireline measurements. MWD and LWD will not be covered by this course, although the logs that are produced in this way have very similar characteristics, even though they have been obtained in a completely different way. 650 Figure 5.1 shows a typical wireline log. In this case it is a log that represents the natural gamma radioactivity of a formation. Note that depth is arranged vertically in feet or metres, and the header contains the name of the log curve and the range. This example shows a single track of data. Note also that 660 no data symbols are shown on the curve. Symbols are retained to represent discrete core data by convention, while continuous measurements, such as logs, are represented by smooth curves. -

Model Petroleum Engineering Curriculum
The SPE Model Petroleum Engineering Curriculum – What it is and what it isn’t The model petroleum engineering curriculum is intended as an aid to universities worldwide that want to start new petroleum engineering programs. It is not intended to be a “standard” curriculum, in that no petroleum engineering curriculum would have all of the course listed here. Any petroleum engineering curriculum should educate students in fundamental mathematics and science, humanities and liberal arts, engineering science, and the foundational course in petroleum engineering. Most curricula will include some more specialized petroleum engineering courses, like those listed in the model curriculum as petroleum engineering electives. No Bachelor’s of Science level degree program could include all of the courses shown in the elective list. The SPE model curriculum includes all of the educational areas needed to create a specific petroleum engineering curriculum. Every petroleum engineering curriculum in the world is unique, none are exactly the same. Many countries or regions have course requirements that do not appear anywhere else in the world. In the United States, there are significant variations in curricula, with some programs having emphases on particular areas of petroleum engineering that are different from other programs. This model curriculum can be used to construct a unique degree program for new programs, with the particular courses included based on the particular needs of that university, or that country.
