Question: Q 2 : In 2 0 1 0 , a black - oil reservoir was discovered in Kuwait with a pressure of 4 1 0

Q2:
In 2010, a black-oil reservoir was discovered in Kuwait with a pressure of 4100 psia and a
temperature of 200F. The reservoir started producing 52,000 STB/d of 36API oil and 32.24
MMSCF/d of 0.72 gravity gas.
By 2017, the reservoir pressure had dropped to 3400 psia and the reservoir was producing
13,200 STB/d of oil and 8184 MSCF/d of gas. The gravities of the produced oil and gas did
not change during the 7 years of production. Also, the cumulative production from the reservoir
reached 8.8 million STB of oil and 5,456 MMSCF of gas.
If the reservoir's pore volume and water saturation are constant, what is the reservoir's IOIP in
STBs?
Hint:
Cumulative produced oil = IOIP - Oil remaining
(all in STBs)
