... placed in the flood pattern, serving as an effective indicator of adequate polymer injectivity. So far, the success of polymer EOR is evident from drastically reduced water cut in the producers, an estimated incremental 1,000 bopd over waterflood, and a favorable polymer utilization of 1.7 lbs/barrel...

... of interest to determine relative permeability behavior at appropriate vertical resolution. Data was acquired on samples from produced intervals within the 3 rd Bone Spring Sand and Wolfcamp formations across four Delaware Basin wells. These producing wells observed water cuts ranging from 25% to 82%. Core...

... a given stimulated rock volume. Water-free production in gas shales, from gas-wet organic matrix pores, created an early impression that unconventional plays don't produce water. So, in more liquid-rich plays, water cuts were initially under-appreciated: e.g. >80% in the Wolfcamp (stock-tank basis...

... Abstract An unprecedented amount of produced water is accompanying surging hydrocarbon volumes in the Permian. Some produced water forecasts are topping 30 million b/d as water cuts from targeted formations are rising quickly in older horizontal wells. In some cases, water-to-oil ratios (WOR...

... performance is often reported as WOR in the Permian, but that is difficult to characterize from a petrophysical perspective. Water cut is another way to describe water production and is defined as volume of water divided by total liquid volume. Water cut more intuitively relates to core measured water...

... to capture well performance transients. The liquid flow rate calculation is based on the principle that the power absorbed by the pump is equal to that generated by the motor, which can be resolved for rate. Water cut is calculated by modeling the production tubing as a gradiometer. The tubing pressure drop...
