PROJECT DESCRIPTION

In Bab field around 43,000 BWPD of effluent water is currently being disposed of.
into 05 disposal wells namely Bb-356. Bb- 437. Bb-558. Bb- 657 and Bb-658. A

further increase in ,effluent water- production fro.m its curr.e nt level of 43,000
BWPD to arou'nd 63,000 BWPD is predicted 'during period 2008-2012. Howeve r

the new header should be sized for 97,000 BWPD to cater for the exg:ected
future requirements. This increase in water production is expected due to the
increase in water cut from both Thamama B and oil rim wells and through the
implementation of artjficial lift schemes. Since each disposal well is estimated to

have a maximum injection capacity of 10,000 BWPD at wellhead injection

pres.sure of 300 psig, therefore to accommodate the additional produced water
production, two new disposal wells have been recommended in the current
Business Plan (2008-2012), assuming that one of the disposal well wil l be used
as replacement/standby well during main~enanc.
. ..e and workove r of the other
disposal wells.
.
,
..

,The water disposal network asshown in Figure -1 (Attachment6)-currently includes 05

l.disposal wells each with- injection capacity of around .10,OOO_.BWP.D and are connected ;.'via 12" main water disposal header from BGDS. The majority 'of thl? existing disposal
water header is of GRE and in the vicinity of the disposal water pumps, it is of intemally'
coated metallic piping. At present the effluent water production from Bab is around.
43,000 BWPD, which requires all five disposal wells to be operated simultaneously
without spare capacity to accommodate any make-up for operational, maintenance and
workover requirements.
To meet the increasing of disposal water. handling capacity, tie-in of two new disposal .
wells, namely Bb:744 & BI-745..(refer Figure -2, Attachment-En~:jj' thelo~ati6nrsni3lfbe
implemented a-s partof the scope of this'p'roject her~illafter term~d .?s Package f :' J

The associated water is collected from 1st stage, 2nd stage separators and FST's. The
stream then goes through a EWTP to separate the oil before it is recollected into
disposal water tank T-2402. It is then pumped for disposal through 12" header into 5
disposal wells.
Due to the frequent failures in the existing GRE disposal water header and considering
the trend of increasing associated water production, it has become crucial to debottleneck the entire existing disposal water system. This De-bottJenecking would
involve engineering study, techno-economic analysis of different feasible options, etc.
which is being carried out under separate project. However as an interim measure; the
de-bottlenecking shall be implemented by laying another header of suitable size to
handle 97000 BWPD in parallel to the existing header. The arrangement for .the new
header shan be simila-r to the existing .header; however the number of joints shall be
minimized. The new header shall 'be '12", as
minimum; however the size shall be
confirmed during the Detail!ilg Engine!ilriog b): ~he- GO~TRAGTOR. , As a short term
solution, this' shall ensure' sufficient redundancy & shall augment the disposal water
system reliability and prevent total shutdown of BGDS in case of header line failure.

dispes-aT

It is further required that in relation to the twoexisting

wells' Bb-657-& Bb-6SW'
drilled in 2004, the temporary carbon steel lines need t9 b.e replaced with 6- .GRE line."
