Abstract:This paper proposes the use of spatial analysis of stimulation treatments and historical oil production to improve the selection of future candidate wells for workover treatments. Oil production data from four mature leases of the San Andres carbonate reservoir in the West Texas Permian Basin are analyzed to identify a potential correlation between historical oil production and the oil production improvement from well stimulation. Spatial grouping of producers is used to eliminate the bias introduced into the … Show more
