OFA (Optical Fluid Analysis) is used for fluid analysis with two sensor systems:
one for liquid detection and analysis and the other for gas detection. The
flowline passes through two independent optical sensors. In one cell,
absorption spectroscopy is used to detect and analyze liquid. In the other
cell, a special type of optical reflection measurement detect gas.
This allows wellsite personnel to decide whether to divert the flow into a sample
chamber, or increase the sampling pressure above bubblepoint.
It can also be used to verify that the formation contains only water or only gas
and that a sample is not required. Thus, the sample chambers in the tool are
kept available for desired fluids only.
Even when OBM is used it is
possible to track the transition from
borehole mud, to filtrate, to connate
oil as long as the two oils differs in
color.

Exercise 1
In a gas reservoir, that consist of sand zones and shale zones, two vertical wells are
drilled (I and II). Well II is situated 500 m east of well I. Well I was drilled through
sand zones A and B, Well II was drilled through 3 sand zones K, L and M. The
thickness of these sand zones is between 20 m to 30 m with zones of shale in
between. In each of these sand zones, to pressure tests were taken (MDT). The chart
below shows the pressure in the different zones:

Exercise 3
MDT pressure measurements are used for barrier studies. Figure 3 shows a
gas field with 8 wells. Figure 4 shows the pressure values for each of these
wells from one sandzone A. Sandzone A has low permeability and for 3 of
the wells the sand is almost tight.
Which 3 wells show almost tight sand (supercharge)? Based on the
pressure plot, draw lines for tight faults/barriers between some of the
wells on figure 3. Estimate the GWC for each segment.
