Modular
Reservoir Casing Driller (MRCD) for Reservoir
Evaluation
Burlington Resources Canada Energy Ltd., Big
Horn Resources Ltd. and Schlumberger of Canada invite you to
attend an information session on a new technology (Modular Reservoir
Casing Driller) for evaluating reservoirs in cased wells. This tool
can be used to selectively drill through casing, gather formation pressure
data formation, fluid samples and
then plug the drilled hole in the casing.
Date: Thursday,
May 10, 2001
Time:
12:00 - 2:00 PM (lunch
provided)
Location: PanCanadian
Amphitheatre, Room 260, Tower Centre, 2nd
Level
131-9th Ave. SE, Calgary, AB
Background
A new downhole tool has been developed which
allows wireline formation testing in cased wells without having to
perforate, or squeeze. This tool provides new capabilities for cased
hole formation testing and includes functionality offered in open hole
formation testers. This tool has been developed for the following
applications:
- Acquire pressure information to confirm if a zone may
still be commercial. Also confirm if a pool is being drained by a
nearby well or if well down-spacing should be considered.
- Retrieve
formation samples to confirm fluid type in zones where log results are
inconclusive. Fluid samples can be taken in hostile environments
like H2S zones where conventional testing may be prohibited.
-
Determine permeability from pressure transient analysis
to mitigate frac risk and determine production potential.
Tool Description
The tool is called the Modular
Reservoir Casing Driller and is deployed on electric wireline. This
tool is set in casing, drills a hole through the casing and cement to
access the formation, takes multiple pressures and samples, and then seals
the drilled hole at the end of the operation. Multiple layers can
be tested on one trip in the hole.
Tool Specifications:
