Abstract
Fluid properties are key factors for predicting single well productivity, well test interpretation and oilfield recovery prediction, which directly affect the success of ODP program design. The most accurate and direct method of acquisition is underground sampling. However, not every well has samples due to technical reasons such as excessive well deviation or high cost during the exploration stage. Therefore, analogies or empirical formulas have to be adopted to carry out research in many cases. But a large number of oilfield developments have shown that the errors caused by these methods are very large. Therefore, how to quickly and accurately obtain fluid physical properties is of great significance.
In recent years, with the development and improvement of artificial intelligence or machine learning algorithms, their applications in the oilfield have become more and more extensive. This paper proposed a method for predicting crude oil physical properties based on machine learning algorithms. This method uses PVT data from nearly 100 wells in Bohai Oilfield. 75% of the data is used for training and learning to obtain the prediction model, and the remaining 25% is used for testing. Practice shows that the prediction results of the machine learning algorithm are very close to the actual data, with a very small error. Finally, this method was used to apply the preliminary plan design of the BZ29 oilfield which is a new oilfield. Especially for the unsampled sand bodies, the fluid physical properties prediction was carried out. It also compares the influence of the analogy method on the scheme, which provides potential and risk analysis for scheme design. This method will be applied in more oil fields in the Bohai Sea in the future and has important promotion value.
