ABSTRACT
i
hydraulically fractured, Zhafira-1 well produced 165 BFPD at 18/64 inch choke, with
60% water cut and a TGLR of 700 scf/STB, while Zhafira-2 well produced 173
BFPD at 25/64 inch choke, with a 0% water cut and a low gas rate. Production from
both of these wells is maintained at the reservoir critical rate for each well.
This paper provides a summary of the background and development history of the
reservoir, and also focuses on the successes that have pointed to how low-
permeability and low acid-soluble carbonate reservoirs can be developed.

Zhafira-2, setelah diperforasi dan dilakuan pengasaman matriks sebanyak dua kali,
masih menghasilkan laju alir sumur yang sangat rendah.
Perekahan hidrolik dengan propan di aplikasikan pada kedua sumur tersebut
dengan menggunakan fluida berbahan dasar oil dan 12/18-mesh propan keramik.
Setelah dilakukan perekahan hidrolik, kedua sumur dapat berproduksi sebesar 165
BFPD pada 18/64 inch choke, kadar air 60% dan TGLR 700 scf/STB, untuk sumur
Zhafira-1. Sementara sumur Zhafira-2 berproduksi sebesar 173 BFPD pada 25/64
inch choke, kadar air 0% dan produksi gas rendah. Produksi dari kedua sumur ini
dijaga agar masih dibawah laju alir kritikal reservoir.
Tesis ini membahas tentang latar belakang dan sejarah pengembangan
reservoir, juga focus pada kesuksesan perekahan hidrolik yang dapat diterapkan pada
seberapa rendah permeability dan kelarutan asam dari reservoir karbonat tersebut.
