SPE Live: CO2 Storage Resources Management System and Committee

The CO2 Storage Resources Committee (CSRC) is responsible for matters related to estimating, classifying, categorizing, and reporting CO2 storage resources in the context of the CO2 Storage Resources Management System (SRMS). In July 2017, the SPE Board approved the CO2 SRMS. The document, written by the CSRC, a subcommittee of the SPE CCUS Technical Section, establishes storage resources evaluation standards based on geologic and project maturity. The SRMS Guidelines, released in July 2022, includes suggestions for the application of the SRMS with the intent of including details of the processes of quantification, categorization, and classification of storable quantities so that the subjective nature of subsurface assessments can be consistent between storage resource assessors. The CO2 SRMS provides a classification and categorization system that reflects geologic certainty and project maturity of storable quantities. The SRMS classes indicate the level of project maturity, which is indicative of data available, management commitment to mature the project, and the degree to which all permissions (regulatory, contractual, and financial) to store CO2 are completed at the time of the assessment. The Storage Capacity classification indicates the highest level of project maturity, while the Prospective Storage Resources classification is the class for undiscovered storage resources, with the lowest level of project maturity. The categorization of storable quantities indicates geologic certainty, e.g. P90 and P10. An update to the 2017 SRMS, which expands the SRMS from geologic storage to include CO2 enhanced oil recovery, is expected at the end of 2024. Join this SPE Live for a conversation with the experts about SRMS and CSRC. Moderated by Jacqueline Roueche , SPE CSRC SRMS Update SC Chair. Senior Program Manager at American Petroleum Institute. Speakers: – George Koperna , SPE CSRC Governance and Membership SC Chair – Scott Frailey , SPE CSRC Chair

DL Technical Talk September 2024

"Integrated Geoscience and Engineering to Improve Hydraulic Fracturing and Field Development". Abstract: “Integrating multiple types of modern field technologies systematically has led to improvements in field testing, understanding, and acreage development in geologically complex formations. These efforts are proving to be invaluable when coupled across disciplines and combined with simulations for predictive evaluations. Several field case studies will be provided to illustrate the benefits of the multi-pronged diagnostics with modeling approach, which include pairing fiber optics, sealed wellbore pressure monitoring, formation imaging, calipers, and microseismic together. Multi-disciplinary datasets from before, during, and after stimulations will be combined into geomechanics models to inform stage and cluster level details derived from field diagnostics that include stimulation and production performance behaviors. An additional case study will connect post-stimulation diagnostics by including downhole erosion imaging, offset strain monitoring, and production warmback analysis to provide comprehensive insight for field development. These case studies illustrate how improved geomechanics modeling, application of field data, collection of the necessary diagnostics, and testing methods may be used across disciplines to effectively inform geoscience and reservoir characterization understanding, completion design, diagnostics, resource development, and well performance.

Calibrating and Quantifying Subsurface Risk in CO2 Storage Projects

While large-scale subsurface carbon storage is relatively new, the process of storing injected fluids underground is not. As an industry, we have decades of experience in natural gas storage, waterflooding, and EOR gas injection projects. These operations provide insights into the types and frequencies of sub-surface failures that might be expected for CO2 storage projects. Failure types include 1) a low seal capacity of the overlying caprock, 2) the migration of injected fluids along fractures or across faults, 3) an overestimate of the volume available for storage, 4) the migration of fluids away from the injector in an unanticipated direction, 5) induced seismicity, 6) poor wellbore integrity creating conduits for injected fluids and 7) well pressure interference. Failure frequencies are normally quite low on an annual basis, but if the goal is to retain 99% of the injected CO2 for hundreds of years, then an annual failure rate of just 1% per year means that a failure over the life of the project is certain. As such, operators and regulators need to focus on data gathering and analyses that reduce risk associated with long-term CO2 storage. It is also important to note that risk exposure is not constant throughout the life of a project. For example, a period of “peak risk” may exist towards the end of injection when the reservoir pressure is greatest. The recognition of such periods is important so that critical monitoring and mitigation can be planned. To quantify risk, we’ve developed a rigorous workflow grounded in the principles of the Storage Resources Management System (SRMS) coupled with our experience in risking petroleum projects. The workflow begins with questions about the project scope and characteristics followed by Monte Carlo simulation to 1) develop an annual chance-weighted risk profile and 2) quantify the capital at risk across the project stages. Oil and gas companies accept that there will be project failures and use the portfolio effect to ensure the value of successful projects exceeds total program costs. However, given that CCUS is in its infancy, investors, regulators and the public may have little tolerance for unexpected CO2 releases into shallow water aquifers, the seabed, or atmosphere. As such, it’s important to fully characterize the risk profile of these projects in order to recognize, avoid and mitigate potential adverse events.

CO2 Storage Resource Management System – Application and Learnings from World’s First Booking

Carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS) is experiencing rapid growth and the ability to classify and compare projects across the globe is of increasing importance. The CO2 Storage Resources Management System (SRMS) has been designed to provide the common framework and is increasingly being applied across the industry. The SRMS has been seeded from the widely used Petroleum Resources Management System (PRMS), which makes it ideal for industry professionals familiar with the concepts of classification and categorization. The SRMS was applied to an onshore project by an Australian oil and gas company in 2021 and led to the world’s first public reporting of CO2 storage quantities under the SRMS classification system. Standard reserves workflows and systems were modified for CO2 evaluation and reporting, resulting in a streamlined processes throughout the organization. Multiple benefits were realized such as standardized evaluation and reporting, a unified language across the company, and enhanced formality in CCUS reporting. As more CCUS projects are proposed, a robust classification system has become vital to communicate consistent terminology, valuation methodologies, and reporting systems for identifying project status and differential between projects. The application of the SRMS is highly recommended for stakeholders, financiers, or regulatory bodies involved in the commercial development of a CCUS project. Biography: Paul Lyford is the Reserves and Resources Manager at Santos Ltd, an Australian oil and gas company and the first to add CO2 Storage resources to the annual reserves report. Paul has over 30 years experience and has been involved in many field developments across Australia. He has a background in reservoir engineering, operations, planning, strategy and commercial.

Making Unconventionals Competitive – Minimizing the Cost per Barrel Oil

We hope you can join us, and make the most of SPE Distinguished Lecturer Leen Weijers' visit to Grande Prairie! Lunch will be provided, please click the RSVP button or contact Kody below! SPE Distinguished Lecturers are industry experts and outstanding speakers, nominated by their peers, to share their knowledge and expertise on the latest industry trends and technologies with SPE members throughout the world. Abstract: “What is the one idea you would like the members to take away from this lecture?" Our industry's innovation to successfully frac and produce from shale, the source rock for hydrocarbons, has dramatically changed global energy access and geopolitical balances. The North American shale industry has relentlessly pushed for a lower cost to bring a barrel of oil ($/bbl) or a cubic foot of natural gas ($/scf) to the surface. This reduction has greatly benefitted world energy consumers. The dramatic reduction in this cost ratio is sourced in two metrics. First, cost of drilling and completion has been cut in about half for shale wells over the last decade through efficiency gains and innovations in workflow. Second, well production has roughly doubled through a focus to increase both the extent and intensity of the created hydraulic fracture system. This North American track record of innovation, operational learnings and engineering optimization contains lessons learned for other shale basins around the world. One idea members will take away from this presentation is that our industry is capable of wide-ranging and rapid innovation when free market forces are unleashed to produce the cheapest barrel possible. Biography: Dr. Leen Weijers is VP of Engineering at Liberty Oilfield Services and served as its Business Manager at Liberty’s founding. Leen worked at Pinnacle Technologies from 1995 to 2011, where he oversaw development of a commercial fracture growth simulator, FracproPT. Leen has authored dozens of publications, and contributed a chapter to the recent SPE Hydraulic Fracturing Monograph. Leen completed his doctoral research at the Faculty of Mining and Petroleum Engineering at Delft University of Technology in the Netherlands.

Insightful Geomechanical Measurements for Converting Existing Hydrocarbon Reservoirs to Carbon Stora

Insightful Geomechanical Measurements for Converting Existing Hydrocarbon Reservoirs to Carbon Storage Tuesday 10th December 2024 between 12:00 and 14:00 Location: Perenco, St Andrews Business Park, 3 Central Ave, Norwich NR7 0HR With SPE Distinguished Lecturer Adam Donald. Abstract As the industry transitions from traditional hydrocarbon exploration and development into new energy and carbon capture and sequestration (CCS), formation integrity becomes more integral for asset longevity. For instance, many depleted fields are being assessed for CCS, but these depleted fields rarely have enough information within the overburden to assess geological seals or caprock integrity. Geomechanics modeling with calibration data is required for determining the maximum injection pressure for containment for the carbon sequestration. Often the critical data were not gathered during the initial appraisal phases of these existing fields to perform the assessment with certainty. Three existing technologies can provide the geomechanical information needed for integrity assessment, namely compressional and shear slowness in cased hole, stress barrier limits, and natural fracture distribution. First, full waveform sonic logs that provide compressional and shear slownesses (1/velocity) are generally acknowledged as the key data missing from the formation evaluation needed in for the geomechanics modeling. Cased boreholes within the overburden always were deemed unattractive environments for sonic measurements, and now these will be the main sources of information in aging assets. Second, when entering the reservoir, to determine the limit of the stress barrier (difference in stress between caprock and reservoir), stress magnitudes and orientation require an integration of sonic, borehole image, and minifrac testing. Maximizing the injection pressure without risking leakage is the goal for the asset performance. Third, assessment of natural fractures within the reservoir and evaluation of the caprock play an important role for maximum injectivity and for reducing leakage risks, respectively. Although borehole image log analysis has been around for decades, sonic imaging technology is now more commonly being used to assess the far field within tens of meters around the wellbore providing new insights. This work explains how existing technology from traditional oil and gas can be used for CCS reservoir and overburden assessment. Specifically, three topics are covered: (1) sonic data analysis within single-and double-string casings; (2) integration of sonic, image, and minifrac analysis for stress characterization; and (3) natural fracture evaluation using far field sonic imaging. Case studies from reservoirs worldwide (Asia, Europe, Middle East, North America) serve as examples of using these insightful measurements. Adam's Biography J.

CCUS Learnings and Monitoring

Safe storage of CO2 in deep saline aquifers requires that the injected CO2 is contained within the geological formation and its conformance is predictable. Gokhan Coskuner’s presentation briefly reviews first the technical analysis conducted in order to be able to submit a 1.1 million tonne/year CO2 Storage Project Application to the Saskatchewan Ministry of Energy and Resources. The application was for storage of CO2 in the Basal Cambrian Sandstone and Deadwood Sandstone deep saline aquifers in the Meota East area near Lloydminster. The stored amount is equivalent to Strathcona’s CO2 emissions from its thermal oil recovery operations in Saskatchewan and from the capture process itself assuming a 90% capture efficiency. The approval to store CO2 was granted by the Ministry and the project sanction is expected in 2025 with a plan to capture first CO2 in Q4 2027. Next, the details of the Monitoring Measurement and Verification (MMV) program is discussed. A review of the best practices employed by the four large CO2 storage projects in Western Canada was conducted. A qualitative CO2 containment risk analysis was carried out using the bow tie analysis methodology to identify the threats and consequences of potential CO2 and/or brine leakage from the storage complex. Preventive and mitigative safeguards were identified for each threat pathway. The bow tie method provided a clear and visual approach to key risks and barriers to CO2/brine migration out of the storage complex. The results of risk analysis were used as a guide to develop an MMV strategy. As a consequence of the risk analysis and MMV design, an area of study around the injection site was identified and will be the subject of monitoring. Necessary baseline measurements were identified and are currently being acquired. Finally, injection and deep monitoring well design will be briefly touched on.

Distinguished Lecture: No Longer A Sunk Cost: Innovation & Collaboration For Decommissioning Subsea

No Longer A Sunk Cost: Innovation & Collaboration For Decommissioning Subsea Infrastructure Andrew Robson Watt Woodside Energy Abstract: Decommissioning involves the timely, safe, and environmentally responsible removal, or satisfactorily dealing with, infrastructure from offshore oil and gas operations. With a significant number of aging subsea assets, it’s estimated the cost of decommissioning in Australia alone will exceed US$45 billion over the next 50 years. Not unlike a Rubik's cube, decommissioning can seem like an unsolvable puzzle. Many sides must work together to solve a complex problem with a multitude of variables including environmental impact, safety, timing, and cost. Many decommissioned materials cannot be re-used and are not easily recycled. Collaboration and innovation are vital to help us find the right combination of solutions to achieve the best outcomes. Universities play a crucial role in this process by providing access to cutting-edge research, knowledge, and resources. These collaborations can create an environment that fosters innovation, where academia and industry professionals can work together to share knowledge and expertise and explore new technologies and methodologies. This lecture highlights the subsea oil and gas infrastructure decommissioning challenges we face as an industry, showcases some innovative solutions, and explains how in today's rapidly changing world, innovation and collaboration are essential for achieving success. The key takeaway is that we must solve this puzzle together. By working collaboratively, we can create a more sustainable future, reduce costs, and achieve more efficient decommissioning. Like solving a Rubik's cube, cooperation, collaboration, and innovation require patience and persistence, but the rewards can be great, and our subsea infrastructure will no longer be a sunk cost.

SPE Distinguished Lecture - J. Adam Donald, SLB

Insightful Geomechanical Measurements for Converting Existing Hydrocarbon Reservoirs to Carbon Storage As the industry transitions from traditional hydrocarbon exploration and development into new energy and carbon capture and sequestration (CCS), formation integrity becomes more integral for asset longevity. For instance, many depleted fields are being assessed for CCS, but these depleted fields rarely have enough information within the overburden to assess geological seals or caprock integrity. Geomechanics modeling with calibration data is required for determining the maximum injection pressure for containment for the carbon sequestration. Often the critical data were not gathered during the initial appraisal phases of these existing fields to perform the assessment with certainty. Three existing technologies can provide the geomechanical information needed for integrity assessment, namely compressional and shear slowness in cased hole, stress barrier limits, and natural fracture distribution. First, full waveform sonic logs that provide compressional and shear slownesses (1/velocity) are generally acknowledged as the key data missing from the formation evaluation needed in for the geomechanics modeling. Cased boreholes within the overburden always were deemed unattractive environments for sonic measurements, and now these will be the main sources of information in aging assets. Second, when entering the reservoir, to determine the limit of the stress barrier (difference in stress between caprock and reservoir), stress magnitudes and orientation require an integration of sonic, borehole image, and minifrac testing. Maximizing the injection pressure without risking leakage is the goal for the asset performance. Third, assessment of natural fractures within the reservoir and evaluation of the caprock play an important role for maximum injectivity and for reducing leakage risks, respectively. Although borehole image log analysis has been around for decades, sonic imaging technology is now more commonly being used to assess the far field within tens of meters around the wellbore providing new insights.

What does the energy transition actually mean for the Oil & Gas industry ?

Abstract: What does energy transition mean? What are we transitioning to? How and when will we get there? In hindsight, the energy transition movement means different things to different entities. To operators, the primary focus is to transform their business (influenced by regulations and legislative policies) by reducing their carbon emissions while also investing in cleaner low-carbon energy sources, such as geothermal and hydrogen. For service companies, it is another potential revenue stream by offering products and services oil and gas operators, as well as renewable power generation companies. For governments, it is defined as an essential need for energy diversification in order to achieve sustainable, self-sufficient solutions that are less impacted by socio-economic or geo-political factors, i.e., energy security. It is important to note that the ‘public’ understand that what is driving this paradigm shift: technology, policy, and cultural change. The energy transition concept will be broken down as a current ‘buzzword’ and popular concept that is fettered by technology hype, political agendas, and/or financial influences that are attached to the term. Finally, light will be shined on how the industry's previous institutional mindset has changed to a broad, open-minded desire to create a net-postive outcome using Environmental, Social, and Governance techniques. Biography: Bez is Vice President of Energy Security in Government Contracts for CyberWorX Energy, focused on national security intelligence and strategic consulting for implementing energy technology. Bez has 15 years of experience in the energy sector – from hydrocarbons to renewables. Previously, Bez has worked as a consultant, energy technologist, and strategist for market research firms, service companies, and oil/gas operators.

Distinguished Lecture: Economic Surprises of Late-Life Production

Economic Surprises of Late-Life Production Dwayne Purvis, P.E. Purvis Energy Advisors Abstract: For years, decommissioning costs were an after-thought to decision-making. They did not affect cash flows or business plans, and sometimes reserve reports did not even include them. Now, many legacy fields both within the U.S. and globally are declining to their final life stage. Even with many producing years remaining and a positive net present value, the total future cash flow can be – surprisingly – negative. Operators may not be ready for the unexpected reality since our industry has spent too little forethought on quantifying the scope of decommissioning, estimating its costs, ensuring security for the long term, and especially preparing funds for the surprisingly early onset of those costs. Though the price boom of recent decades delayed and distracted from the inevitable, natural depletion and the outlook for declining oil demand bring the issue to front. Now the industry finds itself with insufficient nomenclature, knowledge, or practices to handle decommissioning well. This presentation explains the unexpected late-life economic dynamics, the dangers they create, and how to foresee and avoid financial and environmental traps. Biography: Dwayne Purvis, P.E. has spent nearly 30 years in reservoir engineering and executive leadership as a consultant and operator. He has led or participated in hundreds of engineering and strategic studies over dozens of basins in the United States and abroad. Mr. Purvis leads Purvis Energy Advisors, and he frequently teaches, speaks, and writes for industry organizations and for Texas Christian University. Dwayne is a registered professional engineer in the state of Texas, member of SPEE, AAPG, SEG, SIPES and an active, 25-year member of SPE. He has also recently completed a Master of Arts in sustainable energy at Johns Hopkins University.

SPE Swiss board members - Call for volunteers

Dear SPE Swiss members, SPE is celebrating its 20 years of existence. From the initial 30 members in 2004-05, SPE Swiss (originally labelled Geneva Section) peaked at close to 150 members in 2015. SPE Swiss felt the ageing of its membership, the downsizing of IHS Petroconsultants, the sudden closure of Addax Petroleum offices in Geneva, the relocation of Lundin’s staff in Norway. In the meantime, geothermal has brought a few members and the geo-energy trend has generated interest from and toward the SPE community. The SPE future in this part of the world largely relies on integrating SPE Swiss into the new Swiss and European Energy landscape. This is both challenging and exciting times. The current SPE Swiss board mandate has now expired, and we need to renew it. It is also the opportunity to bring in new energy and ideas . All board positions are now open: Chairperson, membership chair, program chair, treasury for the most important ones. If you are interested in joining the board and develop more activities within SPE Swiss for at least the 2 yrs to come, bring your ideas and put them in practice, it is the moment to come forward and lead the section into a new era. Please, reply to this call - you may contact Sabina, Federico or myself - before May 20. Many thanks for your support. All the best Frédéric FG

Abstract: Methane emissions from oil and gas facilities are a significant contributor to climate change and need to be accurately assessed to manage reductions and to meet sustainability goals and reporting requirements. Multiple approaches exist to address the challenge of quantifying methane emissions, from traditional “bottoms-up” leak detection to new technologies remotely measuring emissions “top-down” using satellites, aircraft, drones, and fixed devices. Each method has different capabilities and limitations, and selecting appropriate solutions for a particular situation can be a challenging task. This presentation will provide an overview of the options available, with a focus on top-down measurements. One technique that is emerging as a versatile and efficient approach across varied operating environments is the use of drones equipped with highly sensitive methane sensors that directly measure methane plumes. The presentation will explore this use of drones in more detail for onshore, offshore, and LNG facilities. Regional case studies will be used to illustrate the applications and consideration given to implementation in Singapore. Dave Turner bio Dave Turner is Asia Pacific Region Director for SeekOps, based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Dave started his oil and gas career as a wireline engineer after completing his mechanical engineering degree and worked in the field for five years in locations across the Middle East. He then held various operations, sales, and technical management positions in upstream service product lines in Vietnam, Malaysia, and Angola. Returning to Malaysia, Dave specialised in conveyance risk management before entering the methane emissions detection field at SeekOps.

Huff-n-Puff Processes in Oil Shales to Enhance Oil Recovery

Talk title: Huff-n-Puff Processes in Oil Shales to Enhance Oil Recovery Presenter : Professor Kishore K. Mohanty, The University of Texas at Austin Time: Jul 8, 2025, from 11:00 am to 12:00 pm. A light lunch will be served after the talk. Location: Schlumberger Doll Research, One Hampshire Street, Cambridge, MA 02139, United States Abstract: The shale oil developments have more than doubled US oil production, but the oil recovery due to depressurization is typically less than 10% of the oil in place. In recent years, the Huff‑n‑Puff techniques have been tested in shale and tight reservoirs to enhance oil recovery. In these operations, CO₂, hydrocarbon (HC) gases or liquids are used. Several parameters affect the efficiency of the process: composition of gas, huff pressure, soaking time, puff pressure, depressurization rate and reservoir heterogeneity. Laboratory studies have been conducted to understand the effects of these parameters, but mostly with dead oils. We have developed a workflow that generates live oil in cores in situ that is compatible with our NMR analysis. The goal of this work is to study the effect of key parameters in the huff-n-puff process in shale cores and identify the underlying mechanisms. Biography : Kishore Mohanty is the W.A. (Monty) Moncrief Centennial Chair Professor in Petroleum Engineering in the Hildebrand Department of Petroleum & Geosystems Engineering at the University of Texas at Austin. His research interests are in EOR, carbon capture and storage, hydrogen generation, and nanotechnology. He received his BS from IIT, Kanpur and PhD from University of Minnesota, both in chemical engineering. He worked at ARCO Oil & Gas Company R&D from 1981-1991 before joining the faculty at the University of Houston where he worked for 17 years. He joined UT PGE in 2009 and was the director of the Center for Petroleum & Geosystems Engineering, 2013-2019. He has won several awards from the Society of Petroleum Engineers including the John Franklin Karll award in 2022, SPE Distinguished Achievement Award for Petroleum Engineering Faculty, 2016 and AIME/SPE Anthony F. Lucas Technical Leadership Gold Medal, 2013.

Nov Meeting - DL Randy Seright, Polymer Flooding Reinvigorated!  Why is Polymer Flooding Taking Off?

We are pleased to welcome DL Dr. Randy Seright to our November 2025 meeting to present " Polymer Flooding Reinvigorated! Why is Polymer Flooding Taking Off?" This lecture will describe advances in polymer flooding and help the audience determine if this application is right for them. The talk will inform the listeners how to avoid the pitfalls that have limited the technology in past applications. Biography Dr. Randy Seright has developed polymer flooding and gels to improve sweep efficiency in reservoirs since 1978, when he started his career with Exxon. He worked at New Mexico Tech for 36.5 years, making polymer flooding and gel treatments more viable. Randy has been involved with many of the major polymer flooding projects throughout the world, including China, Canada, India, Argentina, Suriname, Kazakhstan, and Alaska. He provided short courses on Polymer Flooding and Water Shutoff in 19 countries. He received the SPE/DOE IOR Pioneer award in 2008 for his work on using polymer and gels to improve oil recovery. ABSTRACT Polymer flooding has experienced remarkable expansion of application in recent years. Beginning with the massive Daqing project that started in Northeast China in 1996 to the impressive use of horizontal wells to recover 1000-10,000-cp oil in Canada (beginning ~2004) to the record-breaking success of the Milne Point project on Alaska’s North Slope (beginning in 2018). Although some have claimed that polymer flooding is a "mature" technology, substantial advances have been made in just the past few years that have allowed polymer flooding to be much more cost-effective than it was even 10 years ago. In this lecture, the audience will learn the conditions where polymer flooding will provide the greatest impact and hear about the advances that have been made to allow the technology to be cost-effective in recovering oil with viscosities up to 10,000 cp and in reservoirs with temperatures up to 120°C. New records are being broken with the updated version of this technology. For example, in one pattern at Milne Point, produced water cuts dropped from ~70% during waterflooding before the project to less than 5% during polymer injection. In another pattern, over 0.3 PV of polymer solution was injected to displace 850-cp oil, while significant produced water and polymer breakthrough was only detected recently. This lecture will describe those advances and help the audience determine if polymer flooding is right for them. The talk will inform the listeners how to avoid the pitfalls that have limited the technology in past applications.

Biography Mateus is a senior researcher on well stimulation and completions in Petrobras Research, Development, and Innovation Center in Brazil. He is the technical leader for stimulation in the company vision for the future and works on multi-disciplinary RD&I projects in different areas, such as stimulation, completions, reservoir, and production. His main areas of expertise are mathematical modeling and simulation of stimulation operations, well-reservoir flow coupling, well productivity, and decision making for stimulation technique and well architecture. He also works on software development to simulate well performance, stimulation operations, and well architectures, and supports well operations and design. Abstract This lecture presents a summary of how to improve well performance in conventional carbonate reservoirs through well stimulation. It starts with a brief overview of carbonate reservoirs characteristics. Then the two main goals of well stimulation are presented: (1) increasing the well productivity or injectivity index, and (2) obtaining an evenly distributed stimulation along the wellbore. Some example economic gains of achieving each of these goals are presented, followed by a discussion of the candidate scenarios where each goal is more important. It is shown how improving the productivity index is paramount in low permeability reservoirs, but obtaining an evenly distributed stimulation is more important in high permeability and highly heterogeneous carbonate reservoirs. Then a rationale of how to obtain the best stimulation for each scenario is presented, composed of: (1) selecting the most appropriate stimulation technique for each scenario by comparing the reservoir and operational factors that affect the outcome of matrix acidizing, acid fracturing, and proppant fracturing, and (2) designing the best possible stimulation job and completions using resources for simulating both stimulation operations and completions and the reservoir flow.
