MODULE 4. SCENARIOS

The Scenarios module is available for both Back Test and Full Fit models. The key distinction lies in the fact that in Back Test models, only the Base case can be executed. Conversely, in the case of Full Fit, several additional options become available to execute different workflow scenarios.

4.1.1.1.2 Parameters / Define the parameters for your scenario

Figure 39. Parameters Segment.

Maximum Number of Time Steps

Set the maximum number of timesteps to be evaluated for predictions.

Additional Time Steps

Additional timesteps can be added to evaluate the forecasts beyond the number of months specified in the ‘Base Case Time Steps’ parameter within the Model (90 by default). If the user wants to extend the default 90 timesteps forecast, the number of additional timesteps should be specified in this box.

Uptime Avg Steps

Quantity of timesteps (from historical data) evaluated to average the uptimes that will be used for the forecast. By default, the prediction scenarios are generated using the last uptime from the input file, but sometimes, this uptime value may not be representative of the future uptimes of the wells. To ensure a more representative Uptime value, the average uptime values from the last “n” number of months from input data can be specified and used for predictions. This number “n” is defined within this variable.

Export Monthly

When activated, the prediction results are reported at the start of the month. Locsim uses Timesteps sizes of 30 days, which yields to predictions with a date stamp that differs from the typically 1st day of the month production report. In order to keep consistency with production reports to the 1st day of the month, we include this option that automatically interpolates the predictions to ensure consistent timestamps.

**
Distance of influence (ft) (Only applies for Injection Rate Change Scenario)**

Establish the distance of influence within each selected well, for which the prediction will be created. Wells within this radius will be included in the configuration and results from the prediction. This option enables to create a forecast scenario for a selected group of wells and those included within a specified distance of influence from the selection.

• Wells List Chart. Selection of all or a group of wells (injectors or injectors and Producers) desire to be targeted during the scenario evaluation.
• Your Selection Chart. Displays the chosen well selection that will be taken into account during the scenario evaluation, and that will be available in the following tab.
• Planning Sheet: Accessing the Planning Sheet enables a more dynamic configuration of input data (BHPs, Uptimes, Injection rates, and Status), as well as provides highly configurable options for copying/pasting data from external sources and using drag-and-drop to autofill cells. The 'Apply' and 'Save & Close' buttons must be used for the changes to take effect.

• Your Selection Chart. Displays the chosen well selection that will be taken into account for plotting the charts.
• Compare Scenarios
  • Additional Scenarios. Option that shows the scenario evaluated and at the same time allows selecting multiple scenarios to be compared in the same graph. The scenarios displayed in this dropdown list correspond to other types of scenarios or scenarios of the same type that were created within the same model.

View Data Tables (only displayed in the Results tab)

Displays the scenario configuration stated for the different measurements throughout the prediction period.

• File. Allows downloading the tabular data in Excel format.
• Data. Displays the forecasting data information for the phases selected through the ‘Filter’ option (same as the ones graphed) and allows to:
  • Show Data Set Summary.
  • Show Production History.
• Bottom tabs. These tabs facilitate two distinct types of data visualization subject to the chart filter selection (phases selected, etc.).
  • Transactions. The tabular data is influenced by chart filters, presenting the forecasting throughout the time of the phase or phases selected.
  • Phase Forecasting. The tabular data is influenced by chart filters, presenting metrics such as the average, last 6 months average, maximum, last active date, and the forecasting for the selected phase or phases over time. Each subsequent date is depicted in a separate column.

Dashboard

Leverage external dashboards to compare different scenarios and conduct a more thorough analysis of the results. These dashboards enable the review and plotting of wells with highly configurable options, facilitating the swift identification of wells/layers with the most significant changes.

4.2.3 Connectivity Analysis Scenario and Producer Connectivity Analysis Scenario

Figure 67. Connectivity Analysis Scenario Result Display.

Once the scenario case is accessed, the following main tabs can be visualized in the bottom part of the window:

Maps

The Connectivity map will show you the geographical location of the wells in the asset analyzed, enabling the ability to define the interdependence based on visual connections that the software disseminates. Each of the colors represents a percentage (%) degree of impact from the injector toward neighbor producers.

Tables

Display the Connectivity Map tables evaluated per injector, indicating the impact on the corresponding connected producers, which can be evaluated as Production Impact, Percent Impact, or Average Production Rate for Oil or Liquid, depending on the filter options selected. The tables can be exported in an Excel file. The table is constituted by:

• Injector column. Each injector will be represented by a row.
• Bore.
• Reservoir.
• Producer Column. Each producer is denoted by a column, reflecting the impact per injector. A blank cell signifies no associated impact.

Files

Inputs and Output files generated by LOCISM will be consolidated in this tab.
