Reservoir Characteristics A reservoir is a subsurface collection of hydrocarbons.
Found in porous rock or fractured rock formations
Trapped by overlying rock formations
Reach the hydrocarbons by drilling through cap rock
Slide 57 © 2013 Schlumberger. All rights reserved.
43
Permeability Permeability is the ability to transmit fluids through interconnected pore spaces.
Slide 58 © 2013 Schlumberger. All rights reserved.
44
Discussion Question How does sediment size affect permeability?
Slide 59 © 2012 Schlumberger. All rights reserved.

Porosity Porosity is the total amount of void space in rock.
Slide 60 © 2013 Schlumberger. All rights reserved.
45
Discussion Question Now imagine that you will pour a liquid through the sediments shown in this image. How will the liquid behave differently? Why do you have to have both permeability and porosity to have a production formation? Slide 61 © 2012 Schlumberger. All rights reserved.

Basic Drilling Operations and Terms Making Hole
The rig is drilling deeper into the ground.
Slide 62 © 2013 Schlumberger. All rights reserved.
Tripping Pipe
Pulling the drill string out of the wellbore and then running it back in.
46
Casing
46
A large-diameter pipe lowered into an open hole and cemented in place. Casing is used to:
Protect fresh-water formations
Isolate a zone of lost returns
Isolate formations with significantly different pressure gradients
Slide 63 © 2013 Schlumberger. All rights reserved.
47
Surface Casing
First casing that is run into the well.
Used to protect the water table and aquifers near the drilling site.
Drinking water aquifer
Cemented steel casing to protect aquifer
Impervious shale layer
Slide 64 © 2013 Schlumberger. All rights reserved.
47
Intermediate Casing Drillpipe
A casing string that is set in place after the surface casing and before the production casing. Provides protection against collapsing if the formation is weak or experiences excessive pressure. Allows the crew to use drilling fluids of various densities.
Slide 65 © 2013 Schlumberger. All rights reserved.
Surface casing Intermediate casing
47
Long String Casing
Require higher strength materials on the upper portion of the string
Setting long string is usually a one time operation Production casing
Slide 66 © 2013 Schlumberger. All rights reserved.
Logging Measuring formation properties with electrically powered instruments Used to make decisions about drilling and production operations. Recorded measurements are called a “log.”
Slide 67 © 2013 Schlumberger. All rights reserved.

Replaces the need to drill multiple wells to efficiently produce a reservoir.
Allows Multiple wells on one location

Kicks
50
A dangerous and possibly life-threatening, undesirable influx of formation fluid or gas in to the wellbore.
Kicks can happen when any of the following occurs:
Not keeping the hole full
Insufficient mud density
Swabbing or surging
Lost circulation
Poor well planning
