    This document contains 3 questions regarding calculating natural water influx into reservoirs from surrounding aquifers. Question 1 involves calculating the volume of water an aquifer can deliver to a reservoir under a pressure drop, using data on aquifer and reservoir sizes and properties. Question 2 involves calculating water influx at years 1, 2, and 5 for a reservoir adjoining an aquifer of infinite extent, using data on reservoir properties and initial/current pressures. Question 3 similarly calculates water influx at months 6, 12, 18 and 24, but for a reservoir adjoining an aquifer where pressure is declining over time according to a specified relationship.

    TOPIC 6: NATURAL WATER INFLUX

    QUESTION 1

    (a) Calculate the volume of water an aquifer of 35,000 ft. radius can deliver to a reservoir of 3,200 ft. radius rock
    and water compressibility under a 1,100 psi pressure drop throughout the aquifer. assume porosity = 0.22.
    (b) Compare the available influx with the initial hydrocarbon volume of the reservoir.
    Data:
    Aquifer radius rw = 35,000 ft.
    Reservoir radius ro = 3,200 ft.
    Water compressibility cw = 3.0E-06 psi-1
    Rock compressibility cf = 5.0E - 06 psi-1
    Reservoir thickness h = 45ft.
    Pressure drop ΔP = 1,100 psi
    Porosity ɸ = 0.22
    Water saturation swc = 0.25

    QUESTION 2
    Water Influx – Infinite Aquifer Extent Calculate the water influx at the end of 1, 2 and 5 years into a circular
    reservoir with an aquifer of infinite extent. Effective water permeability is 120md, water viscosity is 0.8 cp,
    effective water compressibility is 1.0 x 10-6 bbl/bbl/psi, the radius of the reservoir is 2,400 ft. reservoir thickness is
    35ft, porosity is 22%, initial reservoir pressure is 4,500 psig and present reservoir pressure is 4,490 psig.
    Data:
    Reservoir Radius ro = 2,400 ft
    Effective water permeability kw = 120 mD
    Effective water compressibility ce = 1.0e-06 psi-1
    Water viscosity µ = 0.8 cp
    Reservoir thickness h = 35 ft
    Porosity ɸ = 0.22
    Initial reservoir pressure Pi = 4,500 psi
    Current reservoir pressure P = 4,490 psi
    Water encroaching factor f = 1

    QUESTION 3

    WATER INFLUX -INFINITE AQUIFER - DECLINING PRESSURE PROFILE.

    Calculate the water influx after 6,12, 18 and 24 months for an aquifer - reservoir system described by the following
    data:
    Data:
    Reservoir Radius ro = 2,500 ft
    Effective water permeability kw = 105 mD
    Effective water compressibility ce = 1.0E06 psi-1
    Water viscosity µ = 0.8 cp
    Reservoir thickness h = 30 ft
    Porosity ɸ = 0.22
    Initial reservoir pressure Pi = 3,800 psi
    Water encroaching factor f = 1
    The pressure time relationship is as follows:
