Reservoir Modelling

• What can reduce the flow in the reservoir, well, tubing or pipeline:– Asphaltenes – Salts– Waxes– Gas hydrates– Emulsions+ Corrosion

• Chemical inhibitors

Production Problems

Recovery Processes

Integrated Modelling of Oil Reservoirs• Combining Seismic Inversion and History Matching• New concept: porosity can be determined quickly and accurately

from a rather limited number of properties of the seismic wave field - the so-called seismic attributes - combined with information from nearby oil wells

• Partners– Danish Research Council– DONG Energy– DTU– Covers:

• 1 Post Doc + 2 PhD students

Integrated Modelling of Oil Reservoirs

CHIGP – Chemicals in Gas Processing2003-2012: Statoil, BP, Total, Maersk Oil, Gassco, DONG Energy

Budget = DKK >15 mio

• Modelling and experimental work

• Optimizing the use of chemicals: Glycols, Methanol,

• Limiting the emission of chemicals: Aromatics, CO2and H2S

• Data, parameters, and software

• CAPE-Open Module and Aspen User Model of a new thermodynamic model, CPA

CO2 for EOR in Denmark• The Danish National Advanced Technology

Foundation (Højteknologifonden) is supporting a 3 year project carried out by:– DONG Energy– CERE, DTU Chemical Engineering– CERE, DTU Environmental Engineering– GEO– GEUS

• The objective is to create the basis for a pilot project in a Danish oil reservoir

Perspektiver for CERE1. Fastholde de internationalt stærke positioner…

ikke mindst vedr. kalk og anvendt termodynamik2. Aktivere flere kompetencer på DTU:

Materialer, sensorer, robotter, bioteknologi…

...for at kunne tiltrække mange unge talenter

...og levere dygtige ingeniører til samfundet

…og i sidste ende bidrage til en mere effektiv udnyttelse Danmarks energiressourcer
