Total oil production from wet in-situ combustion - Nelson and McNeil

Input(s)

VrV_{r}: Volume of Burnt reservoir (ft3)\left(\mathrm{ft}^{3}\right)

\emptyset: Porosity (fraction)

SiS_{i}: Initial Oil Saturation (fraction)

SfS_{f}: Oil Saturation post fire flood (fraction)

VsV_{s}: Volume of Steam (ft3)\left(\mathrm{ft}^{3}\right)

SrS_{r}: Residual oil Saturation (fraction)

hnh_{n}: Net thickness of Reservoir ( ft\mathrm{ft} )

hth_{t}: Total thickness of reservoir (ft)(\mathrm{ft})

E: Efficiency of Fire Flood (fraction)

Output(s)

NpN_{p}: Cumulative oil production (bbl)

Formula(s)

Np=(7758E hnht)( Vr( SiSf)+Vs( SiSr))\mathrm{N}_{\mathrm{p}}=\left(\frac{7758 * \emptyset * \mathrm{E} * \mathrm{~h}_{\mathrm{n}}}{\mathrm{h}_{\mathrm{t}}}\right) *\left(\mathrm{~V}_{\mathrm{r}} *\left(\mathrm{~S}_{\mathrm{i}}-\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{f}}\right)+\mathrm{V}_{\mathrm{s}} *\left(\mathrm{~S}_{\mathrm{i}}-\mathrm{S}_{\mathrm{r}}\right)\right)
