This paper is a geomechanics case study in which timelapse timeshifts have been accurately measured over the producing HP/HT Franklin and Elgin gas condensate fields then inverted to production-induced stress and strain changes throughout the reservoir, overburden and underburden. The interpretation of the result can be used to constrain the coupled reservoir-geomechanical model with the objective of enhancing its capacity to detect parts of the reservoirs that have not been depleted, explaining casing integrity problems and anticipating potential wellbore instability problems on infill wells.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
