§         Electronic Memory Depth recorders (Wireline Informer).

SPECIFICATIONS OF BOTTOM HOLE PRESSURE / TEMPERATURE EQUIPMENT

Atlantic Dove Limited appreciates the need to use reliable equipment in acquiring data during Bottom Hole/Pressure / Temperature tests since it is an important source of information to the Reservoir Engineer.  Hence, we offer the client a wide range of instruments that can make easier the Reservoir Engineers Objectives.  These instruments range from Mechanical to Electronic gauges.

 

Atlantic Dove offers the client the following types of gauges;

§         Mechanical: GRC and KPG gauges

§         Electronic (Strain):  Kuster  K8S and Leutert gauges

§         Electronic (Torque Microbeam): Panex

§         Electronic (Electronic Capacitance): GRC EMS 700 series gauges

§         Electronic (Silicon Crystal): Z.I. P.

§         Quartz (Quartz Crystal):  GRC EMS 800 series / Kuster K8Q Quartz and Metrolog Quartz gauges.

 

The above gauges are calibrated as required by the client.  Exercises like calibration of data, charts and calculations may be presented for prior approval before the gauges are run if so requested by the client.  It is a policy in Oil Quest to recalibrate our gauges when necessary or on request by client or maximum six (6) months.  We also offer our client clocks for mechanical gauges ranging from 6 hours to 144 hours and of pressure range from 750 psi to 30,000 psi while Electronic gauges are available in the range of 5,000 psi, 10,000 psi and 15,000 psi.

 

BHP INTERPRETATION

BHP surveys are run as a part of well and reservoir surveillance.  The data obtained assists in optimizing production rates from wells, reservoirs and as input data for modeling reservoir development activities.  The pressure-time data acquired are usually quality checked before interpretation.

 

SURVEY QUALITY CONTROL (QC AND SG INTERPRETATION)

The QC confirms that the survey was correctly executed and that it is worth interpreting the survey.  In doing this,

 

1.                  The pressure signal seen by both gauges are compared at various time during the survey.

2.                  The pressure difference corrected for gauge depth difference

3.                  The gauge offset is checked to ensure it is within acceptable limit

4.                  The SG survey for both gauges is interpreted and estimates made of any depth shifts required to reconcile fluid gradients.

5.                  If the balance of these checks is satisfactory, the survey is regarded as acceptable.

The Software we use in performing this are:  Spreadsheet (excel), database Sapphire and/or Pansystem.

 

 

SURVEY INTERPRETATION

 

From survey interpretation, permeability, skin, flowing pressure and static pressure are obtained. These parameters when broken down will give information about well damage, well inflow performance quality and other reservoir and well parameters.  Surveys that can be interpreted are as follows:

 

·                    Buildup test,

·                    Falloff test,

·                    Multirate gas welltest,

·                    Interference test etc.

Software we have for this are: Pansystem, Sapphire, and Excel.

 


 

PUMPING (HOT OIL) SERVICES

 

Atlantic Dove pumping units offers the following services amongst others;

§         Removal of Paraffin from Tubing and Flowlines

§         Cleaning the bottom of large storage tanks

§         Heating frac fluids before injection into the well

§         Killing wells

§         Pressure testing

§         Producing 80% quality steam with the optional steamer.

 

Atlantic Dove oil heating units have been effective in not only removal of paraffin both downhole and flowlines and pipelines but also in numerous other purposes including well control, steam cleaning and heating of frac oil.

 

The pumping (Hot Oil) units can pressure test 5,000 psi, which allows credibility checks on flowlines, wellheads, pipelines and subsurface equipment.

 

“Hot Oiling” is the most economical way to maintain maximum production.  There is no lost oil.  It is recovered in normal production. 

 

 

WELL TESTING AND PRODUCTION OPTIMIZATION

 

Atlantic Dove uses the MPFM 300 and 400 series Multi-Phase Flow Meters (MPFM) to provide accurate, real-time measurement of oil, water and gas flows simultaneously without separation of the phases.  The MPFM technology have achieved unprecedented accuracy in Multi-Phase measurements.  The equipment can be used in all flow patterns with oil-continuous and water continuous fluid streams.  The design of the equipment is such that it is easy to operate and requires no field calibration or prior knowledge of fluid properties (such as density and salinity) to be able to give the specified accuracy.

 

Atlantic Dove can also provide the following services:

§         ID-201 Series Interface Detector System

§         Automatic Tank Dewatering

§         ID-301 Tank Profiler
