Integrated production model of 40 North Sea fields

Project Completed

Creation of a GAP, Prosper, MBAL (IPM) model

OPC’s in-house subsurface team created a GAP, Prosper, MBAL (IPM) model for a client in the Southern North Sea.

The project consisted of reviewing over 40 fields and combing them all into one large model. OPC then updated all the fields with the latest production and began the history matching process. Once a reasonable match was achieved the model was run in forecast mode with many late life field development strategies considered.

The value this project has had to the operator is immense. The operator now has a more reliable forecasting method and the operator can assess back out of new fields and impacts on facility constraints.

Disciplines utilised during project

Production Engineering

OPC’s production engineering / petroleum engineering expertise covers projects worldwide as well as various types of wells and reservoirs: oil, gas and gas condensate reservoirs; vertical, horizontal, deviated offshore and onshore producers and injectors.

Reservoir Engineering

OPC is one of the leading independent reservoir engineering consultants in the world providing services on a global basis to IOCs, NOCs and independent oil & gas businesses. Reservoir engineering studies have included phase behaviour and equation of state modelling and production engineering

Reservoir simulation

Reservoir simulation is at the core of OPCs technical services department. We apply the latest technology and industry standard software together with highly competent in house engineering and geoscience staff, to build geostatistical models and up-scale them to dynamic models for black oil and compositional studies, highly fractured and faulted reservoirs studies, and the pilot studies and implementation of various EOR techniques.
