Instructions: Choose the best answer for each question.
1. What is the primary function of a Blind Box?
a) To measure the pressure within a wellbore. b) To determine the depth of fluid or solid interfaces. c) To stimulate oil and gas production. d) To clean and maintain the wellbore.
b) To determine the depth of fluid or solid interfaces.
2. What is a key feature of a Blind Box that ensures accurate measurement?
a) Its flexible and adjustable length. b) Its large diameter for optimal flow. c) Its flat bottom for consistent contact. d) Its ability to measure pressure and temperature.
c) Its flat bottom for consistent contact.
3. How does the Blind Box signal the depth of an interface?
a) By emitting a sound wave that travels to the surface. b) By recording changes in temperature. c) By triggering a mechanical or electrical signal upon contact. d) By measuring the pressure difference between the fluid and solid interface.
c) By triggering a mechanical or electrical signal upon contact.
4. Which of these is NOT a common application of a Blind Box?
a) Measuring the depth of a water-oil interface. b) Identifying the depth of a gas-oil interface. c) Determining the depth of perforations in the casing. d) Analyzing the composition of the fluid within the wellbore.
d) Analyzing the composition of the fluid within the wellbore.
5. What is a major advantage of using a Blind Box for wellbore measurements?
a) Its ability to measure multiple parameters simultaneously. b) Its high cost-effectiveness compared to other tools. c) Its sophisticated technology for precise data analysis. d) Its ability to access and analyze deep wellbores.
b) Its high cost-effectiveness compared to other tools.
Scenario:
An oil well has been producing for several years, and production has started to decline. A wireline operation is scheduled to investigate the potential cause of the decline. You are the operator responsible for running the Blind Box tool.
Task:
**
Here's a possible solution to the exercise:
1. Using the Blind Box:
2. Possible Scenarios and their implications:
Scenario 1: A significant shift in the water-oil interface upward. This could indicate that the water influx into the producing zone has increased, potentially reducing the amount of producible oil.
Scenario 2: A newly identified solid formation (sand or cement) in the wellbore. This might indicate that a sand production issue has occurred, causing blockage of the wellbore and restricting flow.
Scenario 3: No significant changes in fluid interfaces or new solid formations found. This could indicate that the production decline is not related to changes within the wellbore itself, but rather to other factors like reservoir depletion or changes in reservoir pressure.
