Dear Colleagues,

As Chair of the 15th SPE International Oilfield Scale Conference and Exhibition Programme Committee, I would like to make you aware that this event will once again be held in Aberdeen on 24–25 June 2020. While our understanding of the factors that influence inorganic scale formation and control are constantly improving, more extreme environments for hydrocarbon recovery continue to emerge. These environmental challenges include physical properties such as high pressure/temperature, high total dissolved solids and high pH, location in the form of deepwater wells with complex subsea architecture to unconventional long reach horizontal wells, which are now combined with the challenge of reducing operational costs.

Held every two years in Aberdeen, this event offers an unrivalled opportunity for you to hear from fellow industry experts as they share challenges and solutions to inorganic scale control management from fundamental research to hands on experience of tackling such challenges in field applications.

Sincerely,

Myles Jordan, Director Marketing, Nalco Champion, An Ecolab Company

Conference Programme (as of January 2020)

Wednesday, 24 June Conference Suite 3 I 0830–0900

01 Keynote Address: Correlating Calcium Carbonate Scale Risk from Field Experience Data Session Chairperson: Myles Jordan, Nalco Champion, An Ecolab Company

The main focus of this work is benchmarking of calcium carbonate (CaCO3) scale risk and its use in field development and operation phases. In general, defining a scale management strategy and design of new wells during field development are based on thermodynamic calculations, kinetic considerations and field observations. Experience has shown that wells with high temperature and high-pressure drops are prone to downhole calcium carbonate scaling, however there was a need to be more predictive concerning absolute values of temperature and pressure drops. The result from this work was a plot which has proved to be a powerful tool in planning of new wells, e.g. in the North Sea Oseberg field.

0900–1030 02 Technical Session: Scale Control Lessons Learned and Case Studies I Session Chairpersons: Marija Kilibarda, Aker BP and Kristian Sandengen, Equinor

The first presentation will demonstrate how an integrated and systematic approach to predicting scaling potential was used to appropriately monitor and manage scale during unconventional production. The next case study will show how computational fluid dynamics modelling helped on the Nova Field to significantly improve scale inhibitor squeeze placement in an open hole horizontal with large reservoir pressure differences along the well, through the application of non-Newtonian fluids and inflow control devices. Finally, a study involving the comparison of carbonate scaling tendency and scavenging ability of six different H2S scavengers will show that chemistries are available that scavenge efficiently and do not increase carbonate scaling tendency.

1100–1230 03 Technical Session: Inhibition New Chemistries and Evaluation MethodsSession Chairpersons: Amy Kan, Rice University and Eugenia Marinou, Lloyd’s Register

This session recognises that effective scale inhibition remains a challenge for many operators in terms of high cost chemical deployment systems, selection of appropriate chemicals and the ability to monitor reliably and in real time the efficiency of inhibition. The knowledge base is growing rapidly thanks to on-going research and some exciting new developments, which authors of the papers presenting in this session are kindly going to share with us.

Notable work discussed within this presentation includes recent advances in mineral scale control with a combination of polymeric dispersants, phosphonate inhibitors and a novel evaluation method using a test rig able to reproduce downhole flow at realistic rates.

A well-documented challenge associated with calcite inhibition measurements is addressed in a new way with a laboratory test method that can be applied to a broad range of production conditions.

The results of a study of electromagnetic devices on the scaling process provide a welcome assessment of the potential of this non-chemical scale inhibition method, which has for some time captivated the attention of researchers. To highlight the latest in novel developments, an experimental example of using graphite as a sacrificial scaling material for calcite scale management, using electrochemically enhanced deposition will be presented.

06 Keynote Address: Does Barite Scale Deposit at a Kinetic Stable Supersaturation Flow? Session Chairperson: Myles Jordan, Nalco Champion, An Ecolab Company

The deposition of barite on the surface is one of the most serious problems to flow assurance in the oil well. The scale formation is typically predicted by the thermodynamic solubility limit. However, it is believed that a kinetically stable region exists where no scale will form, even when the solution is supersaturated. The purpose of this study is to identify the supersaturated region where scale does not form and to determine whether inhibitors are needed.

0900–1030 07 Technical Session: Developments in Residuals Analysis and Produced Water MonitoringSession Chairpersons: Eric Mackay, Heriot-Watt University and Alex Thornton, Clariant

The scaling health of individual producer wells is dependent on key monitoring data inputs and can present significant surveillance challenges when multiple well flows commingle into a single production train. The technical papers selected for this session will provide novel approaches to forensic interrogation of these mixtures to reveal the contributing water chemistries and scale inhibitor residuals concentrations for optimum producer well scaling health management.

1330–1500 09 Technical Session: Sulphide Scale – Prediction and InhibitionSession Chairpersons: Ping Chen, Halliburton and Caroline Simpson, Scaled Solutions

Sulphide scales of iron, zinc and lead can present a significant challenge in specific oilfield environments and are less understood than the conventional scales. When facing a sulphide scaling risk, identifying and application of chemistries that are effective under the required production conditions can be an undertaking, with new generations of inhibitors and dispersant chemicals continuously being investigated to close the knowledge gap. In this session, we gain insight into sulphide scale management strategies, including advancements made in scale prediction modelling, discussion around the limitations of inhibitors in sour environments, and how improving interactions between the scale inhibitor and the formation can extend squeeze life.

1530–1700 10 Technical Session: Improvements in Scale Prediction and Treatment DesignSession Chairpersons: Salima Baraka-Lokmane, Total and Stephen Heath, Baker Hughes

Scale prevention is important to ensure continuous production from existing reserves that produce brine. Scale control is vital as wells are deeper, as they produce more water, but also as wells produce low water cuts as a result of evaporation. Improved scale prediction is possible with accurate input data such as water composition, thermodynamic and PVT data. The preservation of produced water and a good interpretation of the analysis together with an improved design of scale treatment can provide an enhanced scale management. This session gives an insight into the most recent developments within scale predictions and treatment design. An optimum collection and handling of formation water samples will be presented as well as rigourous procedure for the prediction of carbonate and sulphide scales which can be applied using any commercial PVT and scale prediction software.
