Authors K.P. Maron, S. Bourne, K. Wit, P. McGillivray and S. BrissendenC034 Integrated reservoir surveillance of a heavy oil field in Peace River Canada Summary Since 1979 Shell Canada has operated the Peace River heavy oil field in the province of Northern Alberta. In 2002 Shell Canada started an extensive and ambitious reservoir-surveillance programme with the aim to improve the understanding of dynamic behaviour of the reservoir produced by cyclic steam stimulation. Repeated seismic time-lapse continuous microseismic and surface tilt meter data have been acquired since late 2002 and this surveillance is continuing to date. These areal surveillance data allow us to track the injected fluid volumes and heated parts of

Pressure Depletion Observations from Time-Lapse Seismic Data at the Troll Field
More LessC038 T-11 Pressure Depletion Observations from Time-Lapse Seismic Data at the Troll Field Abstract Seismic lines have been repeatedly acquired over the Troll East gas reservoir in 1997 and 2002. Pressure observations from wells together with the field-wide simulation model give an average pressure drop of 15 bar over this five-year period. High seismic repeatability enables time-lapse observations caused by this pressure drop both along the top and beneath the thick gas reservoir. Detailed studies of the top reservoir reflection show a 2.0% average decrease of amplitudes between 1997 and 2002. Careful noise analyses including characterization of its spatial correlation

Gas-Oil Contact Monitoring at Troll Using High Resolution 4D Analysis and Neural Networks
Authors A. Bertrand, S. McQuaid, R. Bobolecki, S. Leiknes and H.E. RoC040 Gas-oil contact monitoring at Troll using high resolution 4D analysis and neural networks Abstract 1 A new 4D workflow is applied to the Troll West Gas Province datasets to monitor the gas-oil contact movement. It consists in generating attributes of velocity and amplitude changes using enhanced resolution imaging and 4D-friendly differencing. These attributes are used to train a neural network scheme for estimation of gas-saturation changes and quantification of the gas-oil contact movement. The analysis shows coning along the tracks of a number of multilateral wells and identifies undrained volumes for infill drilling. Introduction ALEXANDRE BERTRAND 1 SEAN MCQUAID

Combined Reservoir and Seismic Modeling in 4D Analysis
Authors M.C. Haverl and S.A. PetersenC042 Combined Reservoir and Seismic Modeling in 4D Analysis Summary 1 The aim of this study is to show a procedure of combining information from a reservoir simulator in seismic modeling. The established workflow is applied to a profile across a Norwegian Sea field case to simulate relevant fluid scenarios in a 4D setting. Despite all the limitations encountered we think that directly using simulation outputs in seismic modeling provides a fruitful communication basis between reservoir engineers and geophysicists. Introduction The purpose of establishing the modeling technique described here is triggered by the following two aspects: The question of how

Porosity and Saturation Estimation from 4D Seismic P Wave Impedance
Authors E.F. da Costa, F.S. Moraes and L.G.C.L. LouresC043 Porosity and saturation estimation from 4D seismic P wave impedance Abstract 1 We present a methodology for porosity and saturation estimation from a 4D P wave impedance data developed using Bayesian probability theory. The proposed methodology is tested on synthetic data considering two different states of knowledge about the reservoir at legacy data acquisition time (pre production) . We first assume that the initial saturation (Swi) of reservoir is well known. In this case we can infer the porosity values from the legacy data and water saturation from the monitor data assuming that porosity is not changed due to

4D Quantitative Estimation of Dynamic Reservoir Properties for the Gullfaks Field
Authors K.B. Rasmussen, H.J. Hansen, L. Gommesen and L.K. StrønenC044 4D quantitative estimation of dynamic reservoir properties for the Gullfaks Field Abstract 1 This work describes the quantitative prediction of dynamic reservoir properties such as changes in fluid saturation and pore pressure. For the Gullfaks field acoustic impedance and Poisson’s ratio changes between the baseline survey (1985) and the three monitor surveys (1996 1999 and 2003) are available from a 4D simultaneous AVO inversion. Using a rock physics model specific for the Brent formation of the Gullfaks field the acoustic impedance and Poisson’s ratio changes are inverted for corresponding changes in water saturation and pore pressure. We demonstrate that

Time-Lapse Seismic Attributes and Reservoir Volumetric Calculation
Authors T. Galikeev and T. DavisC045 TIME-LAPSE SEISMIC ATTRIBUTES AND RESERVOIR VOLUMETRIC CALCULATION Abstract 1 Time-lapse seismic technology plays a significant role in dynamic reservoir characterization allowing the understanding of fluid movement within the reservoir and optimization of production of the field. Mature fields characterized by high data availability including well seismic and engineering data are natural candidates for an integrated reservoir characterization. Data integration helps to better understand anomalies measured by remote sensing methods (seismic) and relate them to the reservoir properties measured directly and represented by well logs. Petroleum geophysics mostly deals with two distinctly different data types: seismic data in time (remote

Weyburn Field Seismic Monitoring Project
Authors T.L. Davis and R.D. BensonC046 Weyburn Field Seismic Monitoring Project Summary 1 High-resolution time-lapse (4-D) multicomponent (9-C) seismic data acquired by the Reservoir Characterization Project (RCP) of the Colorado School of Mines were used to monitor a miscible CO2 flood in a thin (30m) carbonate reservoir at a depth of 1450m in Weyburn field Saskatchewan. Multicomponent time-lapse seismic images illustrate the influence of fracture zones on the flood. These fracture zones are very important to characterize and monitor in order to manage the flood successfully and to achieve the desired improved recovery efficiency.

Petroacoustics for Seismic Monitoring and Overpressure Prediction
Authors P.N.J. Rasolofosaon and B.E. ZinsznerC047 Petroacoustics for Seismic Monitoring and Overpressure prediction Abstract 1 The production of oil and gas reservoirs or the storage of gas in geological formations always has direct repercussions on the fluid content and pore pressure and hence on the seismic properties of reservoir rocks. This paper describes experimental results in the laboratory on the effect of the variations of pressure and of saturating fluid on elastic wave propagation velocities in reservoir rocks. The simultaneous effect of the fluid substitution and of the differential pressure (the difference between the confining pressure and the porepressure) on seismic properties are shown. Another

Hydromechanical Modeling of Reservoir Behavior during Underground Gas Storage Exploitation
Authors S. Vidal-Gilbert, F. Huguet, L. Assouline and P. LonguemareC051 Hydromechanical modeling of reservoir behavior during underground gas storage exploitation Abstract 1 Variations in reservoir pressure saturation and temperature due to reservoir production induce changes in the stress state in and around the reservoir. Geomechanical effects can be particularly pronounced for some reservoir such as poorly compacted reservoirs fractured or faulted reservoirs and those which are severely affected by strong pressure variations or by cyclic pore pressure variations (Longuemare et al 2002). Geomechanical monitoring of underground gas storage which undergoes cyclic pore pressure changes is useful to predict the reservoir deformation during gas injection and gas withdrawal. After a

4D Seismic History Matching – The Reality
Authors R. Staples, T. Stevens, E. Leoutre, S. Jolley and J. MarshallD009 4D seismic history matching – the reality Abstract 1 We present data from a number of North Sea projects where 4D seismic observations have prompted the updating of reservoir models (‘4D close the loop’) using a ‘hands-on’ approach. We demonstrate that the use of the 4D seismic data to prompt model updates usually improves production history matches also. Production data and 4D seismic data rarely pull the matching process in opposite directions provided one does not try to over-fit the data. Automated history matching of dynamic reservoir models using production data and/or 4D seismic data is becoming a widespread

Real Time Update of a Reservoir Property Model in Geosteering Applications
Authors S. Pedersen, P. Tennebo, L. Sonneland and A. CarrillatD014 Real time update of a reservoir property model in geosteering applications Abstract 1 For optimal well placement a proper model of the reservoir is of key importance. To ensure the consistency between the model and the new information recorded by logging while drilling (LWD) real time updating of the model needs to be facilitated. The initial model in our workflow is typically generated by classification. By classification on a set of seismic attributes that describe different signal properties the natural clustering of the voxels into classes is found. This initial model is then calibrated with the LWD measurements to

Geostatistical Integration of 3D Seismic Data to Determine the Reservoir Volumetric
Authors A. Almousa and H. Al-QassabD018 Geostatistical Integration of 3D Seismic Data to Determine the Reservoir Volumetric Abstract 1 The reservoir volumetric uncertainty is proportional to the reservoir properties uncertainty. It is unquestionable that well logs and core data form the primary source of information for generating reservoir models but they often fail to describe the reservoir properties away from sparsely located wells. On the other hand the 3-D seismic data has a dense temporal sampling of the reservoir but its vertical resolution is highly restricted. With viable correlation between the well logs and the 3-D seismic data the reservoir heterogeneity and properties can be
