Abstract

Summary

In one of the world’s largest offshore oil fields located in Qatar, managing stacked tight carbonate intervals presents a unique set of subsurface and operational challenges.

Low matrix permeability, variable stress regimes, and historical fracturing during injection require a more precise and adaptive waterflood strategy.

This study introduces a fully integrated, data-driven workflow centered around a three-dimensional Mechanical Earth Model (MEM) and real-time digital monitoring to define, manage, and expand the water injection operating envelope.
