HYDRAULIC FRACTURING EVALUATION OF WELL ZAA-011 PANGKALAN SUSU FIELD, NORTH SUMATRA

Well ZAA-011 is a well located in the Pangkalan Susu field that has been depleted, where the reservoir has experienced a decrease in producing ability due to fair permeability. Well ZAA-011 produces with artificial lift in the form of a hydraulic pumping unit (HPU) and has a water cut value of 72%. The well is producing in sandstone Structure B, located at a depth of 3392 - 3412 ft MD, with a reservoir pressure of 606 psia. Well ZAA-011 has a permeability of 10 mD or fair and a productivity index of 1.084 bpd/psi. The method used to evaluate hydraulic fracturing stimulation in the ZAA-011 well is by using MFrac simulation which is an evaluation measurement in the previous hydraulic fracturing process. The fracture properties parameters are fracture half-length, fracture width, fracture height, fracture conductivity, dimensionless frac conductivity, and reservoir permeability. Production parameters are seen through pipesim simulation in the form of nodal analysis to see the optimal production rate. Economic parameters using profit indicators are calculated with the production sharing contract model cost recovery model including NPV, IRR, ROI and POT obtained. Based on the simulation using MFrac software, the hydraulic fracturing design values are fracture half-length 34.239 m, fracture width 0.37321 inch, fracture height 14.42 m, fracture conductivity 12984 mD-ft, dimensionless frac conductivity 6.4239. Permeability was found to be 37 mD and theoretically the average is about 36.7 mD and the productivity index also increased by 2.383 bpd/psi. Plus nodal analysis in the wellbore using pipesim software obtained a production rate of 238.8 BLPD (67.54 BOPD). Economic analysis using profit indicators obtained an NPV value of MUS$ $937, IRR with a value of 250.71%, ROI of 77.22% and POT obtained 0.354 years or about 4,248 months. This indicates that the redesign work on hydraulic fracturing in the ZAA-011 well is effective and optimal.

Abstract

Well ZAA-011 is a well located in the Pangkalan Susu field that has been depleted, where the reservoir has experienced a decrease in producing ability due to fair permeability. Well ZAA-011 produces with artificial lift in the form of a hydraulic pumping unit (HPU) and has a water cut value of 72%. The well is producing in sandstone Structure B, located at a depth of 3392 - 3412 ft MD, with a reservoir pressure of 606 psia. Well ZAA-011 has a permeability of 10 mD or fair and a productivity index of 1.084 bpd/psi. The method used to evaluate hydraulic fracturing stimulation in the ZAA-011 well is by using MFrac simulation which is an evaluation measurement in the previous hydraulic fracturing process. The fracture properties parameters are fracture half-length, fracture width, fracture height, fracture conductivity, dimensionless frac conductivity, and reservoir permeability. Production parameters are seen through pipesim simulation in the form of nodal analysis to see the optimal production rate. Economic parameters using profit indicators are calculated with the production sharing contract model cost recovery model including NPV, IRR, ROI and POT obtained. Based on the simulation using MFrac software, the hydraulic fracturing design values are fracture half-length 34.239 m, fracture width 0.37321 inch, fracture height 14.42 m, fracture conductivity 12984 mD-ft, dimensionless frac conductivity 6.4239. Permeability was found to be 37 mD and theoretically the average is about 36.7 mD and the productivity index also increased by 2.383 bpd/psi. Plus nodal analysis in the wellbore using pipesim software obtained a production rate of 238.8 BLPD (67.54 BOPD). Economic analysis using profit indicators obtained an NPV value of MUS$ $937, IRR with a value of 250.71%, ROI of 77.22% and POT obtained 0.354 years or about 4,248 months. This indicates that the redesign work on hydraulic fracturing in the ZAA-011 well is effective and optimal.
