Proactive control of cresting in homogeneous oil reservoirs : an experimental study (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Akangbou, H., & Burby, M. (2017, June). Proactive control of cresting in homogeneous oil reservoirs : an experimental study. Poster presented at SPARC 2017 Salford Postgraduate Annual Research Conference, University of Salford, UK

Cresting in horizontal wells is a well-known reservoir problem usually described as the insurgence of effluent(s) (unwanted water and or gas) through the perforation of the well, which is produced together with oil. Cresting is majorly affected by pr... Read More about Proactive control of cresting in homogeneous oil reservoirs : an experimental study.
