Reserve Estimation and Production Facilities: A Case Study on Titas Gas Field, Bangladesh
Department of Petroleum and Mining Engineering, Jessore University of Science and Technology, Jessore-7408, Bangladesh
ABSTRACT
Titas gas field is one of the largest gas field and most significant commercial energy resource of Bangladesh. Therefore, future development of the country largely depends on the judicial use of this valuable resource. The field was discovered in 1963 and put into production in April 28, 1968. Totally, sixteen wells have been drilled in Titas gas field since 2009. Estimation of gas in place (GIP) and gas reserves are very crucial for the energy planning and natural gas production facilities. In this study, gas in place values of the Titas gas field has been estimated using volumetric and material balance method. Geophysical data, fluid properties data and production data have been analyzed using volumetric analysis as well as material balance to verify initial gas in place and reserve estimates for the Titas gas field. In volumetric and material balance analysis, gas initially in place is 7169 Bcf and 7800 Bcf respectively at Titas gas field since March, 2009. The daily gas production of Titas gas field is about 394.98 mmscfd with 431.94 bpd of condensate and 1801.7 bpd of water. This study estimates gas in place and daily production of Titas gas field.
