Maximizing Condensate Production Opportunities in a Giant Stacked Reservoir-Case Study

Abstract

Abstract This paper addresses the opportunities of maximizing the condensate production in a giant Recycle Gas-Condensate Reservoir in UAE. The condensate reservoir is producing many years under recycling mode to maintain the pressure and maximize the gas condensate recovery. The producers and injector wells are in a line drive pattern where the injected fluid is lean gas to maintain 100% VRR. The condensate production declined through the years due to gradual pressure decrease as well as injected lean gas/N2 breakthrough. Several studies were done to increase condensate recovery and extend gas production plateau.
