An innovative technology for condensate bank recovery and inhibition.
Formation of liquid banks around production wells is a natural and well-known issue in gas condensate reservoirs. It happens once the BHFP drops below the dew point, impacting gas deliverability. This issue can spread to the whole reservoir should the overall pressure arrive below the dew point when the system is exploited under natural depletion, or the gas injection is insufficient.
GaStim®Cond is a new technology for condensate remobilization based on the injection of a proprietary GaStimTech® formulation that is injected along with the base gas. This technology is more effective for condensate remobilization than the more conventional liquid-based stimulation treatments because it can penetrate much deeper into the reservoir and make better use of the diffusion mechanisms, without inducing liquid blockage inherent to conventional applications.
GaStim®Cond effectiveness to improve displacement efficiency and liquid condensate recovery has been demonstrated by extensive laboratory tests, and several field deployments in low porosity matrix and natural fractures-dominated reservoirs.
