本文介绍了来自现场示踪剂分析的近实时示踪剂数据如何使操作员能够交互式地优化 Nova 油田的两口井清理工作。示踪剂提供了不同区域清理进度的关键信息，使操作员能够做出明智且快速的决策，以最大限度地提高油井清理效率，同时最大限度地减少钻机时间和成本。
Nova油田位于北海东北部。储砂深度为2500-2800米，压力约为290巴，温度高达110℃。该油田将由六口井（三个石油生产井和三个注水井）进行运营，每个主要断层区都有一个注入井/生产井对。作者在完整的论文中展示了两个生产井（X-3H 和 X-4 AHT2）在现场清理阶段流入示踪剂数据的价值。
主要挑战是确保在区域层面充分清理油井，同时最大限度地减少钻机时间和成本。
This paper describes how near-real-time tracer data from an onsite tracer analysis enabled the operator to interactively optimize two well cleanups in the Nova field. The tracers provided key information on the cleanup progress in different zones, which enabled the operator to make informed and fast decisions to maximize well-cleanup efficiency while minimizing rig time and cost.
The Nova field is in the northeastern North Sea. Reservoir sands are at depths of 2500–2800 m, with a pressure of approximately 290 bar and temperatures up to 110°C. The field will be operated with six wells—three oil producers and three water injectors—with an injector/producer pair in each of the main fault compartments. The authors, in the complete paper, show the value of inflow tracer data during the cleanup phase of two producers (X-3H and X-4 AHT2) in the field.
The main challenge is to ensure that the well is sufficiently cleaned up at the zonal level while rig time and cost is minimized.
