FIELD
PROJECT SCOPE
Hibernia
  • Well performance modelling for the Hibernia and BNA reservoirs, including big bore completions, non-conventional wells, and artificial lift requirements.
  • Well configurations and completion philosophy review. Tubing design/stress analysis for critical initial wells, including use of Load Resistance Factor Design techniques.
  • Pressure transient analysis of all Hibernia and BNA development wells (1997-2002).· Preparation of Annual reports for regulatory board.
  • Development of an Integrated Production Model (IPM) for short term production forecasting and optimisation.
  • Ongoing support to HMDC (including a number of in-house assignments) on a range of production, reservoir, and operations management issues.
  • Assessment of Recoverable Reserves and Value; including evaluation of development strategies that could potentially add value to this field.
  • Assessment of recovery and production potential of the southwest Avalon under various high angle well spacing and offset assumptions.
White Rose
  • Lead a Resources Review Team; and participated in the Well Construction and Development Plan Reviews
  • Assisted the Well Construction Team with reviews of Horizontal Injection Well Design issues; Thermal Fracturing assessments; SMART well Reliability Assessments and Life of Field Workover costs; and definition of functional specifications.
  • Detailed planning of the 2000 exploration well test program (2 wells), including contract evaluation/selection, preparation of testing program as well as testing operations and programming.
  • Wellbore completion design and inflow performance modelling for the planned horizontal wells.
  • Preparation of metering and allocation system design, and specification for the Oil Production Information System (OPIS).
Sable Offshore
  • Review of well performance and deliverability requirements and uncertainties for Tier 1 Fields.
  • Assessment of range of Recovery Factors for normal and geopressured sands under depletion and water drive conditions.
  • Development of Integrated Production Model (IPM). Phase 1 to assess field gas production capability, timing of development of additional pools and field compression, and evaluation of ultimate reserve recoveries; Phase 2 as a reservoir surveillance system.
  • Preparation of Production Allocation Philosophy from sales meters to the individual fields, wells and zones including metering error uncertainty analysis.
