TC-RES-03-2024 / Dynamic Reservoir Simulation Study Fasila Field

 

Brief Scope of work (SOW)

Sarir Oil Operations is planning to conduct a compositional dynamic reservoir simulation study in Fasila Field Area 107 in the Sirte basin, which covers a total surface of 625 km2.

The Fasila-Field (ex.PT Lidam), which is a gas-condensate reservoir with an oil rim, was discovered in 1967 by well B1- 97, which targeted the Upper Sarir in Area 107 (Ex C97) but encountered the basement of the B-High. The field is in an NW-SE orientated structure, is about 10 km wide and long, and is located east of P-Field and southwest of Take-Field.

All exploration wells in the adjacent areas had a primary objective to evaluate Sarir sandstone and a secondary objective to evaluate the e Lidam Formation.

The Field was brought into stream in 2006. Field size, which is covered by 3D seismic, extends approximately 47.551 Km2. At present, five wells have been drilled and completed; three wells are classified as producers, and two are considered abandonment wells.

The objective of this study is to evaluate and integrate all available static and dynamic reservoir information to come up with a reliable simulation model, including initialization, History Matching, Prediction scenarios, and production optimization equipped with all possible field development strategies based on a revised and updated static model for 2017-2018. As part of the study, different development scenarios will be considered, such as locations, completion types, and production rates.

Although the static model incorporates the most recent geological and geophysical data, as well as the results of recent testing activities, it may need to be adjusted in order to be optimized. It is necessary to collect additional data to capture the complex fluid behavior and the communication within the reservoir for the dynamic simulation study. A compositional reservoir simulator will be essential to assist with the history matching and development strategies.

The ultimate target of our field development plan is to maximize the recovery factor while ensuring operational feasibility. It also assesses the uncertainties and risks associated with each scenario and makes recommendations for future data acquisition and reservoir management.

Different strategies can be summarized as follows:

  • Develop the oil rim in the reservoir
  • Blow down the field by producing gas
  • Producing oil condensate

Based on the numerical reservoir simulation model, the field development plan will be developed according to the company orientations. Horizontal wells were previously a viable technique option for developing the oil rim, but this may no longer be valid after the change in the properties of the produced fluid (API & GOR), which caused doubt about the existence of the oil rim. To achieve the above goal, the workflow of study, which consists of 6 phases, is proposed/derived as follows:

The study will cover the following phases:

  • Phase 1: Data Gathering QC and Data Base Development.
  • Phase 2: Static Model Review and Validation.
  • Phase 3: Conventional Reservoir Engineering.
  • Phase 4: Simulation Model Construction, Initialization & Validations.
  • Phase 5a: History Matching.
  • Phase 5b: Production Forecasts: Optimization of reservoir production strategy.
  • Phase 5c: Uncertainty assessment
  • Phase 6: Project progress and Final report.
