Reservoir Monitoring
In an era of high oil prices and rapidly depleting reservoirs, reservoir monitoring has become vitally important tool in maximizing the recovery of oil and gas. Mature wells can see rapid declines in production, the causes of which can be identified or diagnosed using suitable reservoir monitoring techniques.
Incorrectly produced reservoirs can quickly water out bypassing valuable reserves forever. Produced water is an unwanted byproduct and needs to be shut off at the source. Mature wells can have production problems due to cross flow, excess sand production, tubing leaks, and scale. To identify these problems and others Falcon uses a comprehensive range of production logging tools which can be run in surface readout mode on one of our electric-line trucks or in memory mode on a third-party slickline or coiled tubing unit.
Key Sensors:
- Casing Collar Locator – A depth correlation sensor works on the principle of magnetic flux, helping to identify the exact depth of the tool string relative to the reservoir.
- Gamma Ray Sensor – Also used as a depth correlation sensor, this tool utilizes the radioactive signature of naturally occurring shale to show the position in the well. The Gamma Ray tool also indicates the buildup of radioactive scale, which can choke production.
- Capacitance Sensor – This electrical sensor measures the amount of water present in produced fluids.
- Density Tool – This family of tools (both radioactive and differential pressure) directly measures the density of the produced fluids, allowing for the determination of the relative proportions of oil, gas, and water.
- Pressure Tool – Using a high-resolution and accurate quartz transducer, this tool measures downhole pressure. Pressure data can be used to determine the ultimate extent of producible reserves in a reservoir.
- Temperature Tool – A very responsive low-mass platinum resistance thermometer that measures fluid entry and leaks, and provides an important parameter for PVT (Pressure-Volume-Temperature) calculations.
- Spinners – Falcon offers a vast array of spinner types capable of operating in any production environment. These include bow spring full bore spinners for barefoot completions and low-pitch jeweled bearing spinners for very high flow rate gas wells.
To complement the core sensors, the tools have a wide range of accessories such as centralizers, swivels and knuckle joints which when selected carefully can almost guarantee the tools reach logging depth efficiently and safely.
All of these tools are available in 1 11/16” diameter and are very short to enable a quick rig up and deployment, saving the client costly non-productive time.
