Egypt News SISI: New Gas Fields will save about $3.6 Billion Annually President SISI said that he is expecting that new gas fields which have been recently discovered will save about $3.6 Billion annually once they start their production.

This came during his dialogue with the heads of national newspapers and these fields include West and East Delta and the giant ZOHR gas field.

Egypt wants acceleration of gas production from these new fields to stop import by 2019. Egypt was someday one of Energy Exporters it became right now from Importers, after non capacity local production related to demand growth in the last years. But the discovery of ZOHR field in 2015 with capacity of productivity amounting to 850 billion meter cubic is expected to change all this.

Egypt’s total production from gas reaches 4.45 billion

cubic foot daily. And Egypt aims to raise production to 5.35 billion cubic foot in 2017 / 2018 and to 5.9 billion cubic foot in 2018 / 2019.

For The First time ... NOWRTH Production Exceeds One Billion Cubic Foot Gas Daily At Framework of Ministry of Petroleum’s strategy execution by speeding development of Natural Gas fields in new projects and link them to production to meet local market, It has finished Drilling and complete latest well in NIDOKU region, it is NIDOKU (West - 4) in NOWRTH field and put it on production at daily production rates 175million cubic foot and 1400 condensates barrels to become the tenth production well in this promising region, and this field’s production rate is beyond 1066 million cubic foot of Gas daily for the first time in the history of Delta Nile area.

This came in a report received by Engineer Tarek Al-Mullah ,Minister of Petroleum and Mineral Wealth, from Engineer Atef Hassan President of BELAYIM Petroleum Company (PETROBEL) about the results of Drilling NIDOKU (West - 4) well within development project of NOWRTH field in Delta Nile Region.

This report showed that this well was done from layer miociem on depth of 3200 meters under sea surface within 50 days, which is a record time, and after putting this well on production, Company’s production rate from natural gas exceeds 1612 million cubic foot daily for the first time since years.

Solartron ISA Rebrands Dualstream Wet Gas Flow Meters Solartron ISA, a world leader in wet gas flow meters for topside and subsea applications, has rebranded its Dualstream family of wet gas flow meters to greatly simplify the process of choosing the correct gas flow meter for a particular application.

Solartron ISA’s Dualstream meters are designed for direct installation at a wellhead or flow line, either top side or subsea. Stable and reliable with a typical lifespan greater than 20 years The Dualstream family consists of four products: Dualstream Venturi, the original wet gas metering system, is a cost-effective solution for allocation or monitoring gas flow rates.

Dualstream 1 is recommended when real-time, high-accuracy gas measurement is a fundamental requirement, and water measurement accuracy is required for efficient well operation. Dualstream 1 replaces the need for test separators or tracer dilution techniques.

Dualstream 2 is a multiphase measurement solution typically used on wells with high levels of liquids, which can cause gas rate over read.

Dualstream 3 utilizes a unique, patented Solartron approach for water fraction measurement for realtime measurement of phase fractions in wet gas applications. Its flow meters incorporate multipath, non-intrusive sensors that have demonstrated excellent performance in oil and water continuous flow and proven to be extremely robust in handling changes in field hydrocarbon compositions.

Hydraulically Actuated Diaphragm-Metering Pumps Pulsafeeder introduced the PULSA¬PRO series of hydraulically actuated ¬diaphragmmetering pumps. A variety of enhancements extend the metering pump’s pressure and flow ranges, improve accuracy, and simplify the hydraulic-management system, all while reducing the pump’s footprint. The pumps combine the efficiency of a plunger pump with the sturdiness of a diaphragm seal to eliminate leakage. New enhancements to the line of PULSA¬PRO 680, 880, and 7120 pumps meet the needs of operators in the downstream oil and gas, chemical¬processing, and water-treatment industries. These enhancements include increased flow rates up to 270 gal/hr, pressure up to 5,100 psi, operational temperatures up to 275°F, and viscosity up to 1,000 cp. Leak-detection capabilities provide pressurized leak detection by monitoring the diaphragm integrity and signaling alarms (or stopping the pump) at the first sign of diaphragm failure. An expanded range of materials, now including higher-grade alloys and multiple diaphragm types, can handle a diverse range of chemical solutions.

Rigless-Deployed Electrical-Submersible-Pumping System

The TransCoil rigless-deployed ESP system, developed by Baker Hughes in conjunction with Saudi Aramco, reduced ESP installation time and overall workover costs by more than 50% in a Middle East field.

Saudi Aramco and Baker Hughes introduced the TransCoil rigless-deployed electrical-submersible-pumping (ESP) system, which is designed to help operators bring wells on production faster and lower the costs associated with installing and replacing ESPs. Because they can eliminate the need for a rig in fields where rig availability is a concern or where high intervention costs can limit artificial-lift options, operators can minimize deferred production and lower their overall lifting costs to extend the economic life of their assets. The system features an inverted ESP system with the motor connected directly to a proprietary power-cable configuration, eliminating the traditional ESP power cable-to-motor connection, which improves overall system reliability. Unlike wireline-deployed ESPs, the fully retrievable system does not have an in-well wet connection, which requires a rig to pull and replace if the wet connection fails. The power-cable design enhances the reliability of the deployment string compared with coiled-tubing-deployed ESPs that simply pull the power cable through the coiled tubing. Extensive fatigue testing and thermal growth analysis were conducted to enhance materials selection and system design. The TransCoil system cable design also extends the operating range to 12,000 ft compared with traditional coiled-tubing-deployed ESP systems, which are limited to approximately 7,000 ft.

Gap-Data System Flange gaps are measured while pulling or pushing rusty bolts through bolt holes. This minimizes the likelihood of jamming the bolts or studs inside the holes. The ThinJackGAP is a real-time gap-data system for all flange-¬separation methods. The system displays the gap between the two parts of the bolted flange during their separation. If this is not measured, there is a risk that the flange is tilted and jammed on its bolts. A small tilt and a strong pull from a drillstring or crane jams the flange, resulting in a long shift to release it. ThinJackGAP reduces the likelihood of this happening by displaying the real-time gap measured around the flange circumference. Other gap-measuring systems require the measurer to move around pipework and obstructions on a crowded well deck to measure the gap. This slows down the flange separation and increases uncertainty regarding the point at which the flange is to be freed. The system displays the gap at several points on the flange circumference next to the separation-¬system operator, who may be 5 to 10 m from the flange. Ó For additional information, visit www.ThinJackGAP.com.

The ThinJackGAP gap-data system allows accurate flange-gap measurement, allowing even separations of flanges while also protecting the tubing hanger neck.

Hammerless Connection Hammer unions often pose serious safety hazards to facilities personnel. R&H Manufacturing’s SaferUnion hammerless connection eliminates these hazards by removing the presence of the hammer, thereby eliminating the risk of fragments being knocked loose, hammers coming into unplanned contact with one another, and the wings/ears being angled in ways that do not allow safe access.

Removal of the hammer also reduces the risk of equipment being damaged by overtightening and hammer misuse. This single-person tool connects to the SaferUnion by a pin in each hole, locking into the keyway in the tool. The tool is simply turned 90° and slightly pulled to lock in place; the process is reversed to unlock the tool. The connection is safer to handle during makeup and breakout owing to its balance, weight, and a full 360° handling surface.

Standard hammerless unions have three wings, with impact points located every 120°. SaferUnion’s patented pattern increases accessibility, with points located every 45°. The tool fits all sizes, and its length requires personnel to be safely out of the liquid-spray zone. Ó For additional information, visit www.rhmachinellc.com.

Rotating Control Device Weatherford brings enhanced capabilities to onshore drilling by incorporating design elements from proven marine rotating-control-device (RCD) technology.

The SafeShield 5M RCD creates a ¬pressure-tight barrier in the wellbore annulus to contain and divert drilling returns in onshore liquid and gas wells. The singleplatform RCD streamlines equipment management because it supports a wide range of applications and pressures. Compared with previous models, the RCD offers a shorter stack height, a larger through-bore diameter of 8¼-in., and higher pressure ratings up to 5,000 psi. Other enhancements include a remote latching system that enables installing and removing the bearing assembly without manual handling below the rig floor. Additionally, a self-lubricated bearing assembly eliminates the requirement for an external hydraulic lubrication unit and the need to connect lubrication lines. A rotating flange reduces rig-up time, and an interchangeable bowl adapts to a range of flange configurations. When combined with an electric setpoint choke, the RCD enables proactive pressure management for diverse onshore drilling operations.

Blockage-Remediation System

The Flexi-Coil blockage-remediation system from Paradigm Flow Services

Paradigm Flow Services introduced Flexi-Coil, a blockage-remediation system that has been developed to tackle challenges to the productivity of an asset throughout its life cycle. Remediation of blockages and restrictions to process flow can be costly. Such issues are particularly acute when systems are unpiggable or deadheaded. By use of ultralightweight and flexible pipe, Flexi-Coil is able to traverse multiple bends within a riser and pipeline system and can be deployed in tight spaces on a floating production, storage, and offloading vessel without the need for excessive engineering. It offers a more cost-effective solution than traditional diving-support-vessel-supported remedial methods. Flexi-Coil provides the ability to solve extreme challenges such as the removal of full or partial flow restrictions (paraffin wax, sand, asphaltene, hydrates, and scale) and the injection of chemical and production-enhancement fluids. It provides back-to-base-metal precleaning for inline-inspection tools, and facilitated artificial-lift operations by gas injection. It can also be used for deoiling, flushing, and line plugging before decommissioning. Flexi-Coil has been developed to tackle these challenges and has already been successfully deployed worldwide, enabling operators to restore or maximize production at reduced cost and downtime.

Fishing Coiled Tubing With Internal Weld Seams and Failed BPVs in a Live Well Environment Using Hydraulic Workover (HWO) By

Ralph McDaniel, Halliburton—Boots and Coots

A

bstract

This paper examines techniques necessary to fish coiled tubing (CT) with internal weld seams in a live well environment without back pressure valves (BPVs) using a hydraulic workover unit (HWO). The challenges of placing barriers in internal seamed CT verses using the slip and shear method is addressed.

The discussed onshore operation was completed August 2013 in North America. Using the techniques described, a 14,000-ft (4267 m) 2-in. (50.8-mm) CT fish was successfully removed from a well with an average surface pressure of 5,500 psi. This was achieved by first opening the blind rams, snubbing in, and dressing off the CT fish. Next, the CT fish was latched with an overshot and a pull test was performed, pressure was equalized, and the slip and pipe rams were opened. Following, the CT fish was picked up and moved to a desired location in the blowout preventer (BOP) stack (approximately 51 ft 4 in.). The slip rams were then closed and a weight check was performed. The pipe rams and inverted rams were then closed. The CT fish was shear/cut, the pipe was picked up and the blind rams were closed. This was concluded by laying down the fish and the process was repeated 276 times with an average cut of 50 ft.

The HWO fishing procedures consisted of 541 hours without any health, safety, or environment (HSE) incidents, accidents, injuries, or job failures.

Job Summary

An operator was performing a frac plug milling operation in central Louisiana. After milling the last brass tipped aluminum frac plug, CT became stuck while being pulled out of hole (POOH). The assumption at the time was that there might not have been enough annular velocity to return the

2017

heavy cuttings to surface. To attempt to free the CT, the crew repeatedly pumped down the backside as well as the tubing.

The (BPVs) failed, allowing 6,600 psi of pressure in the tubing at the surface. With the CT stuck downhole and the BPVs leaking, a decision was made to cut the pipe.

When the CT was sheared, the internal pressure of 6,000 psi was released in the BOP stack and on top of the pipe rams, which had 800 psi of pressure below. The 5,200-psi differential pushed the ram blocks down and off seal, which allowed the well to flow downward across the closed pipe rams. Bottomhole pressure (BHP) at the end of the CT was reduced and therefore allowed gas to enter the CT. Within a few hours, the surface pressure rose from 6,600 to 11,000 psi. The slip rams were opened and the CT fell, allowing the top frac valve to be closed.

The middle and lower frac valves could not be closed. CT was rigged down.

A 340K HWO unit was rigged up and tested as per Fig. 1.

Once the HWO unit was rigged up, the next step was to confirm the location of the top of the fish. A slickline (SL) unit was rigged up on top of the HWO unit. SL was run in hole (RIH) with a 6 12-/in. lead impression block (LIB) against 11,000 psi and tagged the top of coil in the middle of the middle frac valve. The SL unit was rigged down.

The next step was to reconnect to the CT fish. The HWO was snubbed in against 11,000 psi with 6 1 /2-in. overshot dressed with a 2-in. grapple and two nipples with plugs in place. The fish was latched and pulled 29 ft at 31,000 lbf and secured in two slip rams. Two 2 116-/in. 15K gate valves were installed on top of a 2 38-/in. work string. Pipe rams and inverted pipe rams were closed on the 2-in. CT and 50 bbl of 11.8-lbm/gal calcium bromide was bullheaded down the 2-in. CT with a final pressure of 6,400 psi. Annulus pressure was 10,400 psi.

SL was rigged up to pull both plugs from the nipples. Then,

SL was used to swage open the CT fish inside the overshot with a 1.5-in. swage. The SL unit was rigged down.

The next step was to cut the CT as deeply as possible.

Electric line (EL) was rigged up and a 1.375-in. gauge ring was run to 14,000 ft. The 2-in. CT had 5,600 psi and the annulus had 11,800 psi. A total of 250 bbl of 11.8lbm/gal calcium bromide was circulated. The 2-in. CT had 5,400 psi and the annulus had 6,050 psi. The operator RIH and jet cut at 14,000 ft. The EL was then POOH and rigged down.

Pipe was moved with 21K pipe weight to confirm the cut.

EL was rigged up and 42 bbl was bullheaded down the CT. The operator RIH and set the first bridge plug at 11,800 ft. A 5K negative test was performed on the plug for 30 minutes.

The operator then RIH with the second bridge plug and set it 30 ft higher at 11,770 ft. As soon as the second plug was set, both plugs leaked. The operator RIH with the third bridge plug and set it at 11,200 ft. Following, 4.5K negative plug leaking was performed. The operator RIH with the fourth bridge plug and set it at 10,200 ft. A 4.5K negative test was performed. The operator RIH and the fifth bridge plug was set at 10,100 ft. EL was rigged down and the CT was bleed to 0 psi. The overshot was removed and the HWO unit was rigged down. All plugs leaked 5,600 psi on the CT. The decision was made to disregard placing plugs in the CT with the weld flash because five consecutive plugs had leaked. As Fig. 2 illustrates, the weld flash can present a difficult challenge for standard elastomers. It can be very difficult for an elastomer to mold itself into a 90° right angle configuration with a standoff of 0.120 in. and still maintain a seal in excess of 5,000 psi. The surface pressure had been as high as 11,800 psi.

The next step was to rig up the HWO unit and proceed with the slip/shear fishing method. An overshot was run in the hole and the CT fish was latched and pulled more than 50 ft. The fish was secured with slip rams and sheared. The sheared 50-ft section was laid down. The slip/shear method was continued for five additional cuts before the CT fish fell out of the overshot.

on the composite plug including the heavy metals is beyond the scope of this paper; rather, the focus is on lessons learned from the time the pipe became stuck until the fish was retrieved.

Listed below are options for the operator if the CT becomes stuck and the BPVs are not sealing: ● Kill the well with kill weight fluids. ● Spot a swellable solution. ● Spot cement. ● Freeze and cut CT. ● Shear/cut CT and endless possible solutions.

Shear rams are good for cutting pipe and stopping uncontrolled flow. However, shear rams have caused several underground blowouts when they are closed on tubing with a higher surface pressure than the annulus. Uncontrolled flow allows the workover fluids to be replaced with formation fluids and gas, which can reduce hydrostatic pressure. Once the shear rams are closed, the higher pressure is exposed to the top of the annulus fluids because BOPs are not designed for pressure from the top.

It is possible that the well could have been circulated or bullheaded and the pressure could have been stabilized under 6,000 psi. Some plugs do a fair job of sealing the weld flash at low pressures; however using a bridge plug to seal in the weld flash at high pressures greater than 10,000 psi with a 0.120-in. weld flash (as in the project discussed) is not recommended.

Therefore, the question remains regarding what type of plug has a good record of sealing on weld flash at high pressures. Freezing, swellable, and cementing methods are good options that can mold themselves to the irregular IDs presented by the weld flash. Bridge plugs and inflatables packers perform fair in lower pressure environments. Fig. 3 illustrates a decision tree with several options for tested barriers available without shearing the CT. Shearing is always an option and more often with weld flash present.

Conclusions

At this point, it was determined that the fishing needed to occur in the wellbore, rather than the BOP stack. The CT fish was latched, pulled back into the BOP stack, and the slip/ shear method continued. A total of 276 cuts were made with an average length of more than 50 ft each. Once the fish was removed, the HWO unit was rigged down. Table 1 illustrates that it is possible to retrieve more than 900 ft in a 12-hour day with 6,000 psi at surface.

If the weld flash is removed, most plugs on the market have a good chance of sealing within their working pressure range unless extreme ovality is present. The real problem is that weld flash cannot be removed from a CT tapered string, which accounts for more than 90% of the CT manufactured in 2013. The advantage of the tapered string is that it increases operating depths, which is quite desirable. The inside cutter is currently fixed in place and will not move to accept a change in tubing ID or wall thickness.

Issues

Currently, no bridge plug manufacturers promote plugs that seal on a weld flash without applying cement on top. This

is because the weld flash prevents one of the slip segments from engaging the CT and also makes sealing almost impossible because the weld flash protrudes at a 90° angle from the inside wall up to 0.120 in. Fig. 4 illustrates 2-in. CT with the weld flash removed on the left and 2-in. CT with the weld flash installed on the right.

It’s almost a no-brainer to understand the difficulties relating to setting a bridge plug and maintaining a seal in a high pressure environment with the weld flash in place (Fig. 4, right). It is fairly easy to have the weld flash removed during the manufacturing process if the string has the same wall at a cost of less than USD 1 dollar/ft.

Recommendations

In today’s well environment, a good philosophy is that, if you cannot seal it, do not put it in the well. This is true for almost everything except CT with a weld flash. Tapered CT is desirable in some instances, but also comes with risks.

Failure to seal can lead to one of the following scenarios: ● Kill fluid as the only barrier. ● Killing a USD multimillion fracture job. ● Pumping cement and hoping for the best. ● Pumping something swellable. ● Pumping something that sets up. ● Freezing the CT. ● HWO unit—employing a slip and shear fishing method, which produces almost 1,000 ft per day of CT fish at almost any wellhead pressure with 21 different BOPs and valves. ● Shearing and worrying about it later.

The author recommends only running flash free CT. However, the weld flash cannot currently be removed from tapered CT, which is more than 90% of the market. Therefore, operators must be prepared for one of the above discussed scenarios.

A growing number of projects are employing some form of subsea processing. Integrated system approaches to subsea processing, commonly known as Subsea Active Processing Technologies (SAPT), can require a great deal of power. Subsea boosting and/or separation pumps can easily reach 3 MW each; with multiple pump installations quickly adding up to a substantial demand on a host facility. When the power transmission distances approach 100 km or more, AC power distribution becomes less and less practical. For this reason, power industry leaders envision the future installation of offshore electrical utility infrastructures based on High Voltage DC (HVDC) Transmission Technology, just as they are presently employed for land based utilities. Taking advantage of these large HVDC offshore power grids for small, isolated subsea installations requiring only moderate power levels calls for adapting HVDC technology to a scale sized to the power requirements of these installations. The HVDC Power Buoy concept, proposed for isolated SAPT installations requiring subsea power in the range of 10 to 20 MW, is one such adaptation. This paper will present the HVDC Power Buoy concept and its key components; the benefits and drivers for its development; the perceived qualification challenges as well as the target applications for the technology.

Introduction

To introduce the HVDC Power Buoy concept, a subsea completion, with subsea processing included, with a tieback distance of 150 km and a total subsea power requirement of 15MVA @ 0.7 PF (10.5 MW) is used as a demonstrative test case. First, the case of providing AC power to the subsea completion is considered to illustrate the issues associated with AC power transmission. Then, as an alternative, an HVDC Power Buoy with a HVDC power transmission link is presented to show the advantages of this approach. Since

the HVDC Power Buoy is a new concept, the technical gaps are then identified with suggested paths forward to mitigate said gaps. By enabling the use of HVDC power transmission, the HVDC Power Buoy concept is expected to make Subsea Active Processing Technology practical for many isolated and otherwise stranded subsea fields.

HVDC Power Buoy Concept

The HVDC Power Buoy, shown in Figure 1, affords a oneatmosphere stable environment located just below the waveline and local to the subsea completion it will be servicing.

This enables local placement of energy conversion equipment (VFDs, etc.) without the use of massive subsea one-atmosphere enclosures.

HVDC Conceptual Power Path

The HVDC Power Buoy bridges the gap between subsea power transmission distances accommodated via high voltage AC (HVAC) and those presently addressed via HVDC transmission networks.

The HVDC Conceptual Power Path (Reference Figure 2) for providing Medium Voltage AC (MVAC) power to the subsea field test case comprises four (4) main components: 1. Host Rectifier 2. HVDC Power Transmission Cable System with Cable Guillotine 3. HVDC Power Buoy 4. Local Power Distribution Cables with Re-usable Weaklinks

Host Rectifier

Four-quadrant rectifier operation is not required as there will only be consumer loads associated with this system.

This affords a simple passive diode front-end easily configured to achieve a harmonic friendly multi-pulse IEEE-519 compliant input. However application of Silicon Controlled Rectifier Thyristers (SCRs) in lieu of diodes will afford an active front-end which will accommodate the following (Reference Figure 3): Ó Current Limit Function (limit of fault currents) Ó Power Limit Function (interface with vessel PMS) Ó DC Pre-Charge Function (soft-start capacitor precharging) Feeding the multi-pulse rectifier is a multi-winding rectifier duty transformer. To mitigate the need for inter-phase transformers on the rectifier side, series connection of the rectifier is envisioned. Output DC contactors isolate the transmission line from the rectifier during service.

DC Transmission Cable

For the conceptual power level (10.5 MW = 15MVA @ 0.7PF), the DC Transmission Cable is envisioned to be a 185 mm2 armored coaxial cable rated 75 kVDC. Preliminary calculations determine the 150 km, 185 mm2, 75kVDC coaxial power cable to be transmitting, 10.5 MW at 150 Adc, dropping 5.76% (Vin = 75000 Vdc, Vout = 70678 Vdc)

voltage from input to output with approximately 4.5 W/m full load transmission line losses (Reference Figure 4).

DC Cable Guillotine

A mandate for Arctic and sub-Arctic environments requires iceberg mitigation strategies for both topside and subsea equipment. A Cable Guillotine is envisioned to serve as the point of HVDC disconnection during an ice management event. This will enable disconnecting the 75 kVDC Cable from the Power Buoy without the use of HVDC Wet-mateable Connectors as the connectors would need substantial development and qualification programs.

One such shearing method is described by Williams [2] in US Patent 6,397,948 B1 with the primary mechanism detailed in Figure 5 below.

HVDC Power Buoy

The HVDC Power Buoy will enclose a High Voltage Inverter System feeding a medium voltage distribution network to service the local SAPT equipment. The HVDC Power Buoy is envisioned to comprise, but is not limited to, the following: Ó Power Buoy Hull with Mooring System Ó HVDC Inverter Ó L-C-L Sinusoidal Filter / Step-down Transformer Network Ó Medium Voltage Distribution Switchgear Ó Medium Voltage DC Rectifiers with Load Share Reactors Ó Medium Voltage Inverters with Sinusoidal Output Filters Ó General Services Switchboard Ó Emergency Switchboard Ó UPS System Power Buoy Hull and Mooring System The HVDC Power Buoy is a taut moored facility, consisting of a floating buoyant structure moored by multiple tethers to a gravity base on the seabed. The floating buoyant structure is a series of stiffened carbon steel shell tubular sections of varying diameters. These sections form a column or spar, narrow at the surface, with a wide Buoyant Equipment Chamber (BEC) below the surface. The BEC is the main equipment space and provides a climate controlled oneatmosphere environment for the contingency of power conversion equipment and switchgear.

It also supports physical connections to the tether and umbilical systems (Reference Figure 1 above).

link” as the High Voltage DC Inverter will require substantial packaging development and qualification. Voltage Source Converter HVDC technology is envisioned to enable the Power Buoy Concept with further qualification. The VSC HVDC manufacturer,s will have to “buy-in” to and quantify market value for the concept as the technology to manufacture the miniaturized HVDC Inverter is still 3 - 5 years down the road, says one HVDC industry expert. Migration from air to liquid dielectric for high voltage components will be required to afford the reductions in creepage and clearance distances required to address the necessary packaging challenges.

L-C-L Sinusoidal Filter / Step-down Transformer Network Downstream of the HVDC Inverter shall be an L-C-L Sinusoidal Filter / Step-Down Transformer where the transformer inductance will serve as part of the L-C-L Filter Network (Reference Figure 7). The purpose of the Filter Network is to mitigate harmonic content on the common DC bus. The purpose of the Step-Down Transformer, in addition to acting as part of the L-C-L filter network, is to transform the inverted high voltage AC to MVAC (7200 Vac). This allows convenient rectification back to a common 9500 Vdc bus (Reference Figure 8). This is a standard practice as it accommodates multiple Medium Voltage Inverters fed from a single common DC bus (Reference Figure 9).

Common DC Bus Dual DC Rectifiers fed from dual MV circuit breakers each driving a load sharing reactor will convert the filtered 7200 Vac / 60 Hz Voltage to 9500 Vdc. Four-quadrant operation is not required, so there is no need to actively commutate the rectifier switches. However, application of SCRs in lieu of diodes will easily afford a DC link precharge function with little additional effort (Reference Figure 8).

Medium Voltage Inverters The 9500 V Common DC Bus supports a compliment of Medium Voltage Inverters for regulation of SAPT equipment and buoy general services functions. Each inverter comprises a suitably rated MV Inverter feeding a Sinusoidal Output Filter to mitigate output harmonic issues to the loads.

MV Inverters have a proven track record offshore and are available for offshore service from multiple suppliers. One of the MV inverters will be dedicated to support the buoy General Services Switchboard (Reference Figure 9): General Services Switchboard The General Services Switchboard is envisioned to provide service to, but is not limited to, the following consumers:

Ó Lighting Systems Ó HVAC Systems Ó VFD Heat Exchangers Ó Boosting Control Systems Ó UPS Network Emergency Switchboard The Emergency Switchboard is envisioned to be back-fed from the General Services Switchboard. The Emergency Switchboard will be supplied by a small, self-contained, diesel-electric generator set, which is sized to supply 100% of connected electric loads that are deemed essential for safe operations. The emergency generator will also be used for black-start conditions prior to energizing the HVDC power transmission line during commissioning and de commissioning. The emergency generator will be capable of auto-starting, stabilizing and capable of carrying the required load within 45 seconds after loss of normal power.

UPS System A UPS System will be provided to support communication and control systems and will serve as a buffer between sensitive electronic equipment and the emergency generating / HVDC system supplies. Electrical control systems will be powered to insure stepless operation during temporary power system losses.

Communication System The HVDC Power Buoy System can be controlled and monitored from a remote host platform or a land-based station through UHF, VHF and satellite communications.

Local Power Distribution Cables with Re-usable Weak Links Local MVAC distribution cables will connect the HVDC Power Buoy to the respective SAPT loads via re-usable weak links with integral wet mate connectors installed in the stab plates. The weak links can be physically attached to the bottom of the Buoy or in line with the MVAC cables. If directly attached to the Buoy, a universal joint is envisioned to reduce strain at the point of connection and on the shear pins. If connected inline, the universal joint can be eliminated (Reference Figure 10).

Drivers

There are multiple drivers for considering the HVDC Power Buoy. Some of these include, but are not limited to: Ó Reactive AC Power Ó SVC Space Requirements

„distributing, the parameters of the line equally through the line. The parameters are quantified per unit length and are additive in nature as the length of the line increases. In the case of Figure 11, the per-unit length is 10 km, so there are a total of fifteen (15) per-unit RLC sub-circuits connected in series to form the 150 km distributed AC transmission line model.

Ó SVC Harmonics Ó Fault / Power Limiting Ó Power Cable Ó Environmental Ó Portability

Reactive AC Power

For most applications, electrical energy is generated, transmitted, distributed, and utilized as AC current. However, alternating current has several disadvantages. One of these is the reactive power that needs to be supplied along with the active power. Reactive power can be leading or lagging depending on the direction of power flow: Source to Load (lagging) or Load to Source (leading). One can quickly wade into deep technical water when discussing the definition reactive power and power factor, leading or lagging, so it is left to the reader to investigate this topic further. Simulated results to follow will be used to emphasize voltage stability issues associated with long AC transmission lines storing large amounts of leading (capacitive) reactive power. It is important to briefly quantify the relationship between leading (capacitive) reactive power, voltage and capacitance.

This basic relationship is defined in Eqn. 1 (A.R.Bergen [1]), where: Q is defined as the transmission line leading reactive power; V is defined as the transmission line voltage and Cx is defined as the transmission line equivalent capacitive reactance. Furthermore, Eqn. 2 gives the definition of capacitive reactance, where: pie is defined as 3.14159….; frq is defined as the transmission line frequency and C is defined as the transmission line equivalent capacitance. Ó Q = V2/Cx .................................................................... (1) Ó Cx = 1/ (2*pie*frq*C) .................................................. (2) Equation 2 is significant because as C (capacitance increases), Cx (capacitive reactance) decreases. Inspection of Eqn. 1 demonstrates that as V increases linearly, Q increases as the square of V. Additionally as C increases linearly, Cx decreases exponentially thus Q increases linearly with C. The important point to remember is that as transmission lines get longer, transmission voltage is elevated to offset line losses and at the same time the effective transmission line capacitance increases. Both of these serve to quickly increase transmission line leading reactive power demand.

Installation of a 150 km HVAC transmission line (described in the Introduction) realizes the reactive transmission challenges referenced above. Assuming the subsea tieback conditions below, a distributed AC transmission line model (Reference Figure 11) is constructed and analyzed to determine no load transmission line stability.1 The distributed transmission line model gains its name from

40 Petroleum Today - June

2017

Referencing Figure 12, the No load frequency response of this transmission line with an applied voltage of 66 kV rms over the frequency range: DC – 60 Hz, emphasizes the reactive energy requirements associated with long distance high voltage AC transmission. In short, a 150 km, 185 mm2, 66kV, 60Hz Transmission Line (with no consumer loading) will generate approximately 45 MVA of leading reactive power. The significance to the host utility is substantial and must be addressed with a large Static Var Compensation (SVC) network at the host to dissipate this leading reactive power to enable stable voltage regulation.

Figure 13 illustrates no-load input versus output voltage frequency response between DC to 60 Hz. The no-load voltage rises from Vout_LL_rms = 66,000 Vac at the line output to Vout_LL_rms = 73,400 Vac (with no load connected). This is an 11.1% increase in output voltage due purely to the reactive power generated within the transmission line and, in addition to the SVC network at the Host, will require active or passive voltage regulation at the load to stabilize voltage swings from no-load to full load.

NOTE: The 185mm2 copper cross-section was arbitrarily chosen for analysis and is, in point of fact, not suitable for the given application parameters. At 60 Hz and no-load2, the transmission line draws approximately 403 Aac rms of reactive current, which generates approximately 16.1 W/m of Joule heating in each conductor which will most likely dive the conductor-insulation junction temperature beyond the rated thermal limit for the insulation system. Thus, a larger conductor cross-section is required just too thermally manage the reactive current demand.

Rigorous power system design analysis, larger copper crosssection and a substantial SVC network at the Host combined with Active/Passive voltage regulation at the load will afford nominal transmission line performance, but future changes to system-wide loads, at the Host and at the Load, will need to be carefully analyzed on a case-bycase basis to ensure power system stability before changes are implemented.

However, if an HVDC transmission network were employed, the gymnastics to mitigate excessive reactive power swings and system sensitivity to change is all but null and void as the HVDC transmission network can be seamlessly connected to the Host Utility and will afford system-wide tolerance to downstream load swings.

Host Deck Space Limitations

Due to the excessive reactive power requirements associated with long distance, medium to high voltage AC power transmission, Static Var Compensation equipment is a requirement to ensure voltage stability. Static Var Compensation equipment can exhibit a substantial footprint.

The system comprises a compliment of thyristor controlled inductive reactances to dissipate the transmission line leading reactive power as well as multiple harmonic filter traps to mitigate the self-generated harmonics due to SVC thyristor switching (reference Figure 14).

SVC Harmonics

Since the impedance of an SVC is regulated by switching thyristors the input current is distorted and harmonics are generated. Typical current harmonics for a theoretical SVC as a percentage of the fundamental are shown in Figure 15. The addition of multiple harmonic filter traps is typically observed to handle harmonic mitigation. With regard to the HVDC Power Buoy, a multi-pulse rectifier presents a harmonic friendly load the Host Utility without any additional filtering.

Fault / Power Limiting

The active front end comprising the HVDC Power Buoy Rectifier can provide both current and power limiting functions. Current limiting will limit fault current to a set level which will minimize excessive thermal rise at the point of a fault. Upon hitting the current limit set-point, the rectifier controls can initiate a fault clearing protocol to avoid further damage at the point of fault as well as upstream disturbances to the Host Utility. Power limiting can also be supported via integration with the Host Power Management System, whereby the rectifier can be “phased back” to reduce output power until additional spinning reserve power can be brought on-line to avoid unnecessary trips and/or “black-outs.”

Power Cable

The main advantage of HVDC cables over their HVAC counterparts can be found in their reduced weight and dimensions. This results in a higher power density. The HVDC cables have lower losses and can therefore be designed smaller, both in weight and diameter. A HVAC cable system needs three cables, whereas a HVDC cable system only needs two. The HVDC transmission system improves transmission capability and the transmission lengths are nearly unlimited due to the elimination of the reactive power demands.

Environmental

The target SAPT installations discussed are on the order of

1520- MVA. Onboard gas turbines or diesel generators that usually supply this power manage no more than about 25% efficiency - way off the dazzling 75 - 80 % efficiencies of land-based combined cycle power plants. This inefficiency isn,t just costly in terms of excessive fuel consumption.

High emissions can rack up the cost still further, where CO2 taxation applies.

The HVDC Power Buoy is a zero-emission energy conversion source during normal operations with limited emissions during emergency / cold-start operations. This is an extremely important point when considering Arctic and Sub-Arctic applications that are considered to be extremely environmentally sensitive. Moreover, as suggested, the HVDC Power Buoy can be serviced by land-based combined cycle power plants possessing higher efficiencies and thus providing much more environmentally friendly power.

Portability

Ice gouging or scour (Reference Figure 16) is the most significant and most unpredictable environmental loading condition influencing arctic offshore design. The accepted solution to protect subsea equipment from this threat is to place the equipment in an excavated center that is deeper than the maximum gouge depth expected over the design life. Excavated centers are costly to construct and can,t guarantee equipment survivability.

The HVDC Power Buoy is designed to be portable. The incoming HVDC transmission line can be severed via the aforementioned Cable Guillotine. The outgoing subsea equipment power and control cables shall be installed with re-connectable weak links. The HVDC Power Buoy can be disconnected and relocated to avoid ice or moved to an alternate location for decommissioning or re-deployment to another field requiring SAPT power supply. Retrieval of the HVDC cable is also envisioned for re-use should redeployment of the buoy be considered as an option.

Qualification Challenges

The “Achilles Heel” for this concept is the miniaturization of the HVDC Inverter Assembly. Sihler [2] has submitted a patent application that specifically addresses HVDC Inverter miniaturization requirements. In short, the patent application provides for an insulating oil filled dielectric modular stacked power converter vessel. The modular stacked power converter vessel may include an inner container at a first potential (HVDC), a modular stacked power converter positioned within the inner container, and an outer container. The outer container surrounds the inner container and may be at a second potential (Ground).

Incidentally, the driver for this patent application is also long

distance power transmission to offshore consumers.

The primary effect of choosing oil filled dielectric environments over air is driven by dielectric breakdown strength. Mineral Oil has approximately five-times (5X) the dielectric breakdown strength of air and, conceivably, energized components can be placed at least five-times (5X) closer together while maintaining robust electrical isolation.

The liquid dielectric environment also promotes conductiveconvective cooling where the air dielectric environment is solely limited convective cooling. Cooling is also a significant driver for HVDC component miniaturization.

As demonstrated within the body of this work, HVDC Drivers are real and are significant and power industry players are taking note of the need for HVDC power transmission to offshore consumers. The path forward must include a Joint Industry Project which quantifies the market demand and will drive Power Industry leaders to move their miniaturization development schedules to the â&#x20AC;&#x153;left.â&#x20AC;? The market is out there, what remains are to push this fact to the forefront of power industry business development.

Target Applications

In addition to supplying power to remotely located subsea completions, the HVDC Power Buoy is only one of many applications ideally suited for HVDC power transmission.

The average FPSO includes a typical power generation utility as high as 5070- MVA. Other offshore production host facilities also require utility service of this magnitude due to all the pre-export processing required. These facilities are ripe to exploit HVDC transmission. They represent relatively large, remotely located consumers that typically remain onsite for 1020- years. Simplifying onboard power systems, not to mention gains in generating efficiency and zero local carbon emissions are real and present drivers for HVDC technology application.

Accelerating Completions Concept Select in Unconventional Plays Using Diagnostics and Frac Modeling By

Ali Azad, Kiran Somanchi, Jim R. Brewer, and Daniel Yang, Shell Canada

A

bstract

Data pads in unconventional plays have shown significant value when they are carefully designed to tackle specific problems or concerns. This includes the use of diagnostics to cross-validate development concepts such as stimulation design, well architecture, frac and well spacing, and numerous other variables. In this paper, it is demonstrated how various diagnostics technologies together with subsurface data can be used to calibrate a frac model. The model can then be coupled with a reservoir simulator to accelerate completions concept select decisions in unconventional plays. This process (a) eliminates multiple field trial costs, (b) tests different completions and stimulation designs, and (c) assists in derisking various field development planning scenarios. This paper focuses on a real-life case-study where integrated diagnostics and modeling were applied to de-risk multiple completions scenarios. An intermediate planar frac model was calibrated and used to lower the uncertainty of key frac parameters including frac geometry and conductivity. In addition, subsurface parameters such as in-situ stresses and rock properties were tuned. The results from the integrated modeling effort were used to propose future development options for the play.

Introduction

Pad design in unconventional reservoirs is an extensive multivariate problem. The difficulty starts with subsurface characterization which is highly uncertain. Other than the conventional reservoir quality, rock mechanical properties play a role in hydraulic fracturing operation. Completion design variables such as well spacing, architecture and stimulation are interlinked with subsurface variability. The system response cannot directly be measured. Moreover,

48 Petroleum Today - June

2017

the system is not necessarily responsive to every single or combined change in input variables. In such cases, data analysis has to go ahead of the physics to break down the complicated problem into segments for incremental learnings. For this reason, data pads (aka field trials) are proposed to characterize the subsurface, test design scenarios and monitor reservoir response.

In data pads, subsurface properties are characterized through well logs, core and seismic measurements. Initial flow back data and surface pressure data are also acquired to evaluate the reservoir response to the completion design. In addition, diagnostic technologies such as micro-seismic (Cipolla et al., 2012; Warpinski and Wolhart, 2016 and Warpinski et al., 2014), geochemical fingerprinting, (Noyau et al., 1997) and fiber-optics (e.g., Huckabee, 2009; Molenaar et al., 2012; Cox and Molenaar, 2013; Webster et al., 2013 and Ugueto et al., 2014, 2016, 2017) enhance the understanding of the subsurface dynamics by revealing hidden aspects of hydraulic fracturing operations. These technologies are complementary; micro-seismic and geochemical fingerprinting are more useful for reservoir-level insights whereas fiber optics are better suited for well-level insights (Somanchi et al., 2016). Diagnostics are typically employed for monitoring hydraulic fracturing operations, and in some cases, the information is used to make real-time changes to frac design. Post-completion data integration can be used to characterize reservoir behavior, validate various hypotheses, and assess the impact of well and completions design on well productivity.

Diagnostics by nature are not predictive, i.e., they only shed light on what is happening in the reservoir and cannot predict the impact of changing key variables such as landing depth, well spacing and tonnage on fracture geometry and production. For that, modeling exercises are needed to evaluate theories and rank them against production results.

However, both frac and reservoir models can often end up being «black boxes» or unreliable tools if they are not reasonably anchored to reality (Ugueto et al., 2015). In this situation, diagnostics together with field-measured data can book-end the models. Empirical diagnostic data provides bounds for subsurface stresses and pressures levels, fracture geometry and perforation cluster efficiency. The calibrated model should be able to honor measured data while capturing the overall physics of the operation.

Why Frac Modeling?

There are a number of field development decisions that cannot be made without understanding the underlying physics. Reservoir quality, pay thickness, fracture surface area and frac conductivity are some of the basic parameters required for frac design. The additional variables are themselves a function of other uncontrolled and controlled parameters such as subsurface and rock mechanical quality, well architecture, well landing, well length, well orientation, well spacing, stimulation design, etc.

In practice, field trials often consist of changing a single variable such as tonnage or frac spacing. The trial results are compared to a base case design on the same pad to assess uplift. Some companies proactively deploy multiple diagnostic technologies during hydraulic fracturing, flow back and production phases to gain a deeper understanding of the relationship between subsurface properties and completions design. This solution is the most obvious engineering approach as it can be repeated multiple times to eliminate false conceptual assumptions.

Frac modeling is another option to help with concept select decisions (Piyush et al., 2015; Schofield et al., 2015; Suarez and Pichon, 2016). Current frac modeling approaches are either very simplistic so that they do not capture the essential physics; or are overly complicated such that the input variables are not easy to measure. In either case, modeling is a relatively quick and cheap technique that provides blind results.

In unconventional reservoirs, modeling can barely match reality without calibration data from diagnostics.

However, frac modeling can uncover unique information that cannot easily be captured in a field trial.

Proppant distribution within the fracture (frac conductivity) is an example that is extremely expensive, if not impossible, to measure in real life.

The topic of discussion for this paper is a hybrid approach.

Data pads are reliable but expensive and modeling is cost effective but blind. In the hybrid approach, a data pad is carefully designed so that field observation alone can test multiple hypotheses. These scenarios are then used to train

a fit-for-purpose modeling tool. The calibrated model can be cross-validated against observations from other wells on the same pad. It can then be employed to narrow down the list of pad development scenarios. This approach, although not as conclusive as collecting hard data, offers a cost efficient workflow to rapidly compare different pad development concepts. Figure 1 summarizes this concept.

For the purpose of this study, a planar stage-centric model was selected. Figure 2 schematically shows the inputs that go into the calibration and history matching process. The plot in the center shows 2D planes and frac characteristics of a single stage with three perforation clusters as the results of frac modeling.

Case Study: Data Pad Design and Observations

The case study is a 5-well pilot pad in the Montney formation which was designed to collect data at the appraisal phase of the project. The formation thickness is about 120 meters.

The data pad was planned to tackle two major questions. For a given lateral well spacing, (a) how many well layers (1 vs.

2) are required to effectively drain the 120-meter formation, and (b) in either case, to determine the optimal landing depth. In such a thick reservoir, a 2-layer pad with equallyspaced wells seems to be an obvious design. Furthermore, subsurface screening in adjacent wells indicated the presence of two thin cemented or heterogeneous layers located at the top and the bottom third of the reservoir. This observation influenced the team to propose a staggered ‘W’ well arrangement, as shown in Figure 3.

This well arrangement can potentially test (a) if the middle heterogeneous layer is a hard frac barrier, and (b) whether landing close to the layer improves the stimulation or restricts the fracture initiation/propagation.

For this type of problem, viscous frac fluid is suggested to encourage fracture height growth. Viscous fluid was used in stimulating the C-well and the D-well to determine if high viscosity fracturing fluids were needed to break through the potential barriers.

A series of field measurements and diagnostics were collected to lower the uncertainty of learnings. A full core was collected in a vertical well to: calibrate petrophysical models, obtain geomechanical data, understand the geological setting and take geochemical samples. Microseismic, geochemical finger prints, chemical tracers and well-head pressure data also were acquired. All wells except the B-well were completed with an uncemented openhole ball-drop sleeve system; the B-well was completed using the cemented plug and perf architecture. The B-well benefits from an extreme limited entry design with improved frac diversion. In addition, it was equipped with a behind-casing, permanent

fiber optic (FO) cable to evaluate distribution efficiency in a stage during stimulation and for production profiling poststimulation (Somanchi et al, 2017).

Subsurface Observations

The vertical cored well confirmed the presence of the two unfavorable layers. The geological and petrophysical measurements show laminated and low quality rocks at the top of the reservoir. Log-driven geomechanical information illustrates a heterogeneous zone with significant variability in mechanical properties in the lower third of the reservoir (in Fig 4). These alone do not quantitatively predict potential operational issues and/or their impact on well performance, but they do represent strong evidence which flags the potential risk associated with the two thin layers at this pads location.

The log panel in Figure 4 shows selected rock properties for the reservoir interval. Combining these variables (of reservoir quality and mechanical properties) subdivides the reservoir into four rock mechanical units. The data in the figure is calibrated to actual core measurements and therefore are reliable and in static ranges.

Fracture Propagation

Understanding the created frac geometry, specifically fracture height, is perhaps the most critical learning from any data pad. There are at least three reasons why measuring fracture geometry is not straight forward: (a) full characterization of the subsurface for properties, structural discontinuities and special variability at the scale of a well is almost impossible. This would significantly impact every theoretical assumption that we have to make for data analysis; (b) current technologies such as microseismic or tracers are indirect measurements and rely on subjective interpretations (e.g., Cipolla and Wallace, 2014); (c) inconsistency in terminology such as «frac geometry» is not sufficiently unique or descriptive. Major frac, damaged zone, stimulated natural fractures, stimulated rock volume, propped frac, fluid front, hydraulic frac, etc. all refer to similar concepts but cannot be easily distinguished when used in technical conversations.

Because of the high regional stress anisotropy at the location of the data pad aligned with field observation, a «planar frac» is assumed in this paper for the ease of technical discussions and modeling.

Based on this assumption, it is expected to estimate the frac geometry (height and length) from microseismic wherever the fluid can reach. Geochemical figure prints show the effective (productive or propped) portion of the fracture height. Finally, tracer and pressure information can bookend

the hydraulic fracture growth.

Microseismic. Results from microseismic in Figure 5 show three typical fracture height growth scenarios. (a) For the three wells landed high, the fracture covers almost the full height of the reservoir but it mostly tends to grow downwards. At some locations, it suggests growing into the upper formations. (b) For the two wells landed low, microseismic events are very dense in the interval below the heterogeneous zone with some growth into the upper portion of the reservoir. (c) The wells with either slick water or gelbased frac fluid responded the same way from a microseismic point of view. Figure 5ashows the expected fracture growth from microseismic for the three typical landing depths. Fig. 5b and 5c show microseismic data for the B-well.

Other field Observations. Pressure monitoring during stimulation shows that pressure communication is happening between every well. This is due to the fact that the fractures (or the pressure front ahead of the fractures) reach adjacent wells and the openhole architecture allows the pressure to be transmitted to the adjacent wells. This, however, does not necessarily confirm inter-well production communication.

Another piece of valuable information is geochemical figure printing. It estimates that all wells produces from the layers below the landing depth only. Slight production communication is also reported from shut-in exercises in selected wells. For the B-well, it suggests an uncertain production communication with the D-well.

Diversion Efficiency

The B-well was completed with a cemented plug and perf architecture with an externally clamped fiberoptic (FO) cable (Somanchi et al., 2017). Three perforation clusters per stage with 50 meters spacing and 31 tonnes/cluster was designed to improve the frac diversion. The FO cable was used to monitor distribution efficiency within each stage. It was also used for continuous production profiling over IP90.

Figure 6 summarizes the diversion efficiency in each stage as estimated by FO distributed acoustic sensing (DAS).

The size of the bars in Figure 6 schematically illustrates the continuity of cluster activity from the beginning to the end of stimulation. This information is critical for evaluating the limited entry trial and to have a realistic understanding of the number of initiated/propagated fracs. DAS is a useful tool for frac model calibration as it can estimate the volume and tonnage pumped into each fracture.

Model Calibration and Cross-Validation

The main goal of a calibrated model is to create a proxy that can predict reservoir performance with changing variables.

The model should (a) capture essential physics and match

empirical observations from diagnostics, (b) be responsive to mimic blind tests, and (c) be predictive for alternative design scenarios.

The change is sufficiently effective to encourage upward growth first and propagation into the lower layers at later time. The result of this case is reflected in Figure 8b.

The calibrated frac model should link to a reservoir simulation to quantify uplift and run economics.

Landing low. Another cross-validation attempt was made by shifting the landing depth below the lower frac barrier.

Microseismic shows very little to no fracture growth into the upper layers. The initial model was used but in this case the well was shifted to a location below the lower frac barrier. The result is shown in Figure 8c. There is virtually no upward height growth, suggesting this would not be an ideal landing depth given the current completion design.

The toe-section of the B-well (stages 2 to 6 in Figure 6) was chosen for the first modeling phase because of the (a) uniformity in treatment distribution at cluster level, (b) closeness to the microseismic monitoring well and (c) minimum changes in rock properties and the rate of penetration. Rock permeability was amplified 5 times compared to the core measurement. This is due to the fact that the model is limited to planar fractures and the stimulated rock around the frac is not impacted. So, the increase in permeability seems to be realistic.

Proppant placement per cluster in the model was history matched. This was accomplished by adjusting the model perforation diameters to calculated post-treatment hole size (Somanchi, et al., 2016).

Figure 7a displays the estimated fracture geometry from microseismic for, stages 2 to 6. Effective fracture height that is assumed to be the «productive» section of the frac is also plotted in the same figure. Figure 7b shows that there is a good match between the DAS-derived vs modelled sand placement values. The adjusted friction mechanism at the perforations matches sand placement per frac to the observation. The two adjustments (rock permeability and perforation friction) provided a calibrated frac model.

Results from the frac model calibration for a single fracture are reflected in Figure 7c. The latter shows that modelled fracture geometry is in good agreement with field observations. The fracture reaches other wells within the reservoir interval but little to no proppant is placed in the far reaches of the modelled fracture. This model also explains the observed production communication between the B-well and the D-well; they are connected to each other though the propped (or highly conductive) portion of fracture.

Two landing depth cases were modelled for cross-validation.

This is due to the variation in landing zone among the 5 wells. If the model is well calibrated and captures essential physics, it should match the fracture geometry for other landing depths.

Growth into upper formations. As shown in Figure 5b, fractures closer to the heel have a tendency to grow out of zone into the upper formations. This is also apparent in Figure 8a. Poisson›s ratio volumes from 3D seismic (Figure 6) indicate lateral rock mechanical property changes. To cross-validate against field observations, the static rock property model at the heel were slightly altered to mimic that of the B-well.

These two cross-validation attempts verify that the model has been sufficiently calibrated and can be used to predict fracture geometry for different single-well scenarios.

Results from the calibrated frac model were exported into a reservoir simulator. Due to the differences in the preferred grid size between the frac model and reservoir simulator, grid upscaling was required as shown in Figure 9.

In production history matching, there are two major parameters that can be altered: reservoir permeability and fracture conductivity –both are highly uncertain in magnitude. Cumulative production for stages 2 - 5 was obtained from DAS continuous production profiling (Panhuis et al., 2014). We chose to history match cumulative gas volume over IP180 by altering the reservoir permeability until the modelled volume matched that measured from DAS. As shown in Figure 10, there is excellent agreement between the modelled and measured cumulative volumes at a permeability of 1.6 nD. The matched model in Figure 10 is perhaps one of the realizations that can honor the production history.

This task requires careful sensitivity analysis to ensure the selected realization is in good alignment with the inputs from disciplines other than reservoir engineering. The model in Figure 10 shows early stages of depletion that is occurring primarily near the fractures.

Although multiple variables still remain uncertain, the fracreservoir coupled modeling has effectively captured key features of the operation and provided realistic room for sensitivity analysis. In decoupled reservoir simulations, however, fracture dimensions are assumed to be uniform at every cluster. That approach offers a black-box proxy that is good enough for history matching but it is not reliable for further optimization.

Modeling for Optimization

The first application of the calibrated model was to optimize the landing depth. Figure 8c clearly shows that landing at or below the heterogeneous zone is risky because of the potential fracture height limitations.

Fracture height growth is also strongly linked to the pumping volume/rate and plug and perf completions architecture. The first scenario tested was the impact of landing depth with the same completions and model settings. Figure 11 shows that the optimal landing depth is likely in between the two heterogeneous layers. Although it is hard to quantify the impact on production from a frac modeling point of view, the proposed landing depth appears to be a better solution.

First, the well is better connected to the fracture which improves the drainage mechanism within the fracture and potentially inside the reservoir, and second, the improvement in near wellbore conductivity implies that the well is better connected to the reservoir such that the frac will remain open for a longer time. This result suggests a single layer development plan for this play instead of a staggered or twolayer arrangement.

Up to this point, all learnings and validation were premised upon the base completion (plug and perf) and stimulation design. The confidence level is higher for these results due to the fact that no significant change was introduced to the model. Once the model has been sufficiently calibrated and cross-validated against multiple scenarios, it can be used in the optimization/prediction mode. In this space, only conceptual learnings from nearby operations can be employed for comparison. This implies that the level of uncertainty increases when drawing conclusion from the predictive model results at this stage.

For the case study discussed in this paper, alternative completion and stimulation scenarios must be carried out in modeling space, otherwise, field trials, even if financially viable, do not guarantee timely decision making.

A hierarchical structure has to be defined so that important variables are not changed simultaneously. Increases in proppant tonnage, cemented sleeves single entry point architecture vs. multiport systems and well spacing optimization are of key importance in developing this play.

These parameters are linked to each other. In practice, well spacing (or number of wells per section) is believed to have a significant impact on pad economics. Once the well spacing is fixed or limited to a few scenarios, frac design can be further optimized.

One completion variable that was tested was the application of cemented sleeve single entry point architecture systems.

In theory, single entry point architecture encourages a single frac initiation per stage, creates similar fractures along the well, and focuses all fluid pumped per stage to propagate a single fracture (compared to multiple fracs in standard plug and perf architecture). A second variable was to increase the tonnage per frac from 30 tonnes (current design) to 50 tonnes. Figure 12 illustrates the frac modeling trial results for two completion design alternatives. As shown, both cases

extend fracture dimensions, eliminate the risk of fracture barriers, and improve fracture conductivity. However, the major question remains unanswered if next steps are not taken in reservoir simulation. For a given well spacing, does switching to a more expensive completions architecture and higher tonnage improve economic metrics and reduce unit development cost? This question can be answered with a calibrated reservoir model (Figure 9) and is something the authors are currently exploring further. The lack of hard empirical data, coupled modeling is the only option that links engineering variables to economics.

Summary and Discussion

Using an actual case study in the Montney formation, the value of designing a data pad for specific pad development concepts was discussed. The application of diagnostics such as microseismic, fiber optics and geochemical finger printing in frac geometry estimation were also explored.

It was shown how subsurface and diagnostics information collected can be employed to calibrate a frac and reservoir model. After crossvalidating models with empirical data, the model can then be used in optimization space. In this paper, frac modeling results for two alternative completions and stimulation designs were also explored.

For the dynamic and fast paced nature of Unconventionals, a hierarchical design process has to be followed to optimize well and pad economics. Otherwise, a base-line for comparison can never be reached.

Grouping effective variables and ranking them against their economic impacts, perhaps, is an engineering way to unlock the difficulty of the pad optimization. As suggested in Figure 13, constraining major development variables such as number of wells and well orientation is the first step.

Data pads together with modeling exercises come second to optimize the stimulation and drainage mechanisms. For a given well spacing, this paper focuses on the second step in order to optimize number of well layers, landing depth and alternative well architecture.
