Resumo: | |||||||||||||
Reservoir characterization is an important tool for production/reservoir
management. Well tests are commonly used in reservoir characterization and
are the only source of dynamic data during the exploration period. These
tests typically measure the pressure, rate and temperature responses at a
well during controlled production, injection, or static conditions. Generally,
only pressure data is post-processed in reservoir characterization. However,
considering only pressure data can lead to misinterpretation associated
with the neglected thermal effects, causing errors in reservoir properties
estimation and consequently inefficient reservoir management. Besides that,
pressure data have several noise sources that may compromise the accuracy
of test results. Recent results have shown that temperature data can be
used to improve reservoir parameter estimation. In this work, the ensemble
smoother with multiple data assimilation method (ES-MDA) was applied
in synthetic cases created by an in-house non-isothermal reservoir-well flow
simulator that considers the Joule-Thomson heating and cooling, adiabatic
fluid expansion/compression, conduction, and convection effects in the
thermal energy balance equation. The synthetic measured data was obtained
by adding gaussian and harmonics noises to the numerical predictions to
simulate equipment and tidal effects, respectively. A sensitivity analysis of
the effect of the CD matrix used for updating parameters of the ES-MDA
method on the parameters estimations was carried out. The results show
that adding temperature data to the observed data in the history matching
improves the estimates of the reservoir parameters, especially for the skin
region and reservoir porosity. For the analyses in which the pressure data
had the addition of harmonic noise, the inclusion of temperature data also
proved to be of great importance for an accurate characterization of the
reservoir.
