3.2 Water management 78 Solutions commentary Technology solutions in this area fall into three categories: diagnostic evaluation of water sources; water control technologies; water clean-up technologies. Several ways of improving the diagnostic evaluation of water sources were identified for implementation between now and 2025. Most immediately, it was proposed to adopt water source identification technologies and monitoring best practices from some other parts of the world, notably the North Sea and Oman. Further, there should be more frequent well testing and the use of new production logging techniques. Improved well logging, ultimately combined with tracer techniques to determine flow paths, will lead to improved reservoir modeling and enhanced predictive capability. An ultimate target is the deployment of downhole fiber optic systems, which offer the potential for real-time reservoir characterization and rapid zonal isolation to minimize water production. In the area of water control technology, there are mechanical techniques, as well as sealants, that can be used now for the isolation of water producing zones, though these techniques are not applicable in cases where hydraulic fracturing and complex completions have been used. Longer term, water control can be improved using relative permeability modifiers and flowing gels, but these technologies require further development and testing. As shown in the R&D segment of the roadmap, there are potential local R&D opportunities associated with testing of improved chemicals for matrix sealing and relative permeability modification. Scope was also identified for local service provision - for example, sampling and well logging activities, manufacture of chemicals and well intervention services for water shut-off. As far as water clean-up technologies are concerned, the near-term opportunity is increased application of established chemical techniques. However, the existing techniques can be quite expensive for high water cuts and are not well suited for separation of water from high viscosity oils. The preferred, longer term solution is likely to be membrane technology, which present a local R&D opportunity since further development is needed. This could lead to local opportunities for design, installation and maintenance of membrane separation equipment. Provision of the necessary products and services from local sources will depend upon broadening and deepening the local knowledge and skills base.
