Entwicklung und Darstellung eines optimalen Entwurfs- und Ausfuehrungsverfahrens fuer das erfolgreiche Hydraulic-Fracturing in dichten Tonschiefer-Gaslagerstaetten

Description: Das Projekt "Entwicklung und Darstellung eines optimalen Entwurfs- und Ausfuehrungsverfahrens fuer das erfolgreiche Hydraulic-Fracturing in dichten Tonschiefer-Gaslagerstaetten" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von BEB Erdgas und Erdöl Hannover durchgeführt. Objective: The overall objective is to increase the effectiveness of hydrofracturing technology in the extraction of gas from tight reservoirs containing water-sensitive clays. Phase 1 will investigate the scope for minimizing clay swelling effects and water block, for enhancement of flow-back and clean-up, and the use of special proppant size and coating to reduce and eliminate post frac proppant flow-back. It will also study the method of application e.g. the method of successful placement of large proppant in the fracture. Phase 2 will then apply the results of fluid selection and large proppant fracturing procedure to a gas reservoir. Description of work: Phase 1: - Optimization of new chemicals, fluids additives, foaming agents etc., for tight gas conditions - Modification of Tigre tester/core flushing test with different fluids on core material - Laboratory test to identify the effectiveness of proppant size on post fracture flow back - New chemicals and downhole chemical delivery system - Tool development to make e.g. perforations, explosives MECFRAC, slots/slits, trenches - Theoretical study, followed by experimental work on large blocks Phase 2: Carry out fracture treatments using the results of the fluid and large proppant research programs. Carry out a production test after the hydraulic fracture treatment and analyse the data, including proppant flow-back: This work will be carried out under the supervision and responsibility of the participating oil companies, but the practical aspects will be executed by various service companies. Expected results and exploitation plan: Definition of a non-damaging procedure for fracturing these type of tight gas reservoirs. Definition of a procedure for large proppant fracturing these low permeability reservoirs. Application/demonstration of the delivered results will help to develop a number of gas fields, e.g. in Germany and the Netherlands, but probably also in other European countries. Potential reserves to be developed are 200 billion mA3. Presentation of intermediate and final results and start defining a commercial plan. Prime Contractor: Schlumberger Evaluation and Production Services (UK) Limited, Dowell Division European Technology Application Entre; Westhill (Aberdeenshire)/UK.
