MEERA CENTRUM

Workover Sequence Optimization
in the Middle East

Challenges

  • The client planned to perform different kinds of workovers on around 500 wells using 7 Hoists next year.

  • Optimizing the workover sequence in the conventional approach is a multidisciplinary task and manpower intensive.

  • The well drilling sequence should be optimized in a way to accelerate the oil production, maximize the oil recovery and minimize the hoist movement.

  • Huge amount of information, possible human error, and ineffective communications may yield an inefficient workover sequence.

Solutions

  • Import all available data including the well lists from different clusters, expected oil gains from each workover, the well locations, and hoist movement time and cost in HSO.

  • Introduce all constraints and specific priorities.

  • Run Hoist sequence optimizer and Economic Analysis to achieve the most efficient workover list.

OUTCOME

Optimized Multi-cluster Workover Sequence

A multi-cluster workover sequence model is constructed and connected to the client databases to fetch the updated information.

Optimized workover sequence generated which could be updated in minutes based on newly available data/constraint.

Hierarchical access granted to different users to import required data and observe/update the optimization parameters.

Using MEERA CENTRUM’s unique feature, the operator can estimate the expected profit from resolving each constraint and thus, can make informed decisions about extra investments such as increasing/decreasing the number of hoists.
