Description
Summary:This report basically discusses the final results of the project of Miscible CO2 Injection: Sensitivity To Fluid Properties at Tinggi Field. Miscible CO2 flooding is another common approach to enhanced oil recovery in today's field. The gas will act as solvent, forming a single oil-like liquid that can flow through a reservoir to other wells more easily than the original crude. The Tinggi field, which is in the Malay Basin, offshore Peninsular Malaysia, is a fully developed and producing field in Esso Production Malaysia Inc.'s production sharing contract area. In order to predict the performance of these fields undergoing miscible flooding using a reservoir simulation model, there is a need to identify parameters that have significant effect on the predictions. The most importantparameters would be the oil properties such as oil density, oil formation volume factor, and oil viscosity. These properties were manipulated into several cases in order to observe the sensitivity of these properties to the oil recovery factor. Miscible CO2 flooding simulations for Tinggi Field using Eclipse 100 software were performed and analyzed and the results were included in this report. Before running the simulation for the real field, practices on how to analyze the simulation results has been done. This report presents the background of study, problem statement, the objective and scope of study and all the results that has been obtained from the studies.
