Fluid flow with compaction and sand production in unconsolidated sandstone reservoir

Compaction Localization in Porous Sandstone: Implications for Reservoir Mechanics

Compaction of porous rocks can occur in two modes: uniform and localized. Recent experimental work has demonstrated that compaction can occur in tabular zones that expand with increasing applied deformation. The appearance of compaction bands and their growth has a strong influence on the measured permeability of the host rock. The rock behind the moving compaction front can be either uniformly...

Rock Physics Modeling of an Unconsolidated Sand Reservoir

Study on Stochastic Flow in Low Permeability Sandstone Oil Reservoir

Reservoir porous medium is random, in terms of oil and gas for low permeability reservoirs. Consider the random nature of the reservoir will enable to improve the accuracy of numerical reservoir simulation. Based on extensive research, for the stochastic nature of the reservoir from the two aspects of physical simulation, numerical simulation, the relevant international studies were reviewed. T...

Sand Production Control in Sandstone Reservoirs Using a Modified Urea-formaldehyde Re

Several techniques have been used for sand production control in sandstone reservoirs.The main objective of this research is to present a suitable resin to be used as a consolidation agent in oil reservoirs. To achieve this purpose, urea-formaldehyde resin, phenol-formaldehyde resin, and modified urea-formaldehyde resin were selected to be studied. Core samples were made by the sand sample prov...

PREDICTION OF SAND PRODUCTION FROM A SAUDI SANDSTONE RESERVOIR M. N. AL-AWAD and S. E. M. DESOUKY

La production de sable est un phŽnomne rencontrŽ dans certains gisements pŽtroliers saoudiens. LՎtude a portŽ sur six Žchantillons de sable provenant de diffŽrents puits dÕexploitation dÕun rŽservoir grŽseux. Des Žchantillons de grs issus de ce mme rŽservoir ont ŽtŽ soumis ˆ des essais de compression uniaxiale et triaxiale. Les dŽbris des Žchantillons de grs et les Žchantillons de sable on...
