ABSTRACT A new technique to determine excessive water and gas production mechanisms
as seen in petroleum production wells has been developed and verified. Based on …

The capacitance-resistive model (CRM) offers the promise of rapid evaluation of waterflood
performance. This semianalytical modeling approach is a generalized nonlinear multivariate …

Quick evaluation of reservoir performance is a main concern in decision making. Time-
consuming input data preparation and computing, along with data uncertainty tend to inhibit …

An important problem in water control is the identification of the dominant reservoir or
production mechanisms. Recently, Chan (Chan, KS:" Water Control Diagnostic Plots," paper …

Distinguished Author Series articles are general, descriptive representations that summarize
the state of the art in an area of technology by describing recent developments for readers …

In-situ combustion is an effective thermal recovery process. A part of the oil is burned in-situ,
heat is generated, oil viscosity decreases, and larger oil recovery results. Thus, a key …

Abstract Electro-Petroleum, Inc.(EPI) has successfully demonstrated use of DC electrical
current for enhanced oil recovery (a process we now call" Electro-Enhanced Oil Recovery" …

Empirical and/or semianalytical tools are frequently applied in most waterflood operations,
although grid-based models are also often used. This paper examines the performance of …

Despite the widespread application of reservoir simulation to study waterflood reservoirs,
petroleum engineers still need simple predictive tools to forecast production decline …

This paper presents results that theoretically and numerically support the log (WOR) vs
cumulative oil plot for waterflood analysis. This plotting technique has traditionally been …
