DST signifie Test de Tige de Forage, une technique cruciale de test de puits utilisée dans l'industrie pétrolière et gazière pour évaluer le potentiel d'un puits nouvellement foré. Elle consiste à isoler une zone spécifique dans le puits et à effectuer un test de production contrôlé pour recueillir des données précieuses sur le réservoir.
Voici une ventilation du processus :

DST : Un outil essentiel dans l'évaluation des réservoirs
Le DST joue un rôle essentiel dans le succès de l'exploration et du développement pétroliers et gaziers. Il fournit des informations essentielles sur le réservoir et son potentiel, informant les décisions cruciales concernant l'achèvement du puits, la planification de la production et, en fin de compte, la rentabilité du projet. Cet outil précieux permet aux compagnies pétrolières et gazières d'optimiser leurs opérations et de maximiser leurs rendements du réservoir.

(b) It helps in determining the profitability of a well.
Scenario: A DST was conducted on a newly drilled well. The following data was collected:
Task:
1. **Potential of the Reservoir:** The reservoir has a high initial pressure (2,500 psi), indicating a potentially productive formation. The flow rate of 1,000 BOPD suggests a significant production capacity. 2. **Fluid Composition:** The high oil content (90%) is favorable for production. The presence of gas and water indicates that the reservoir may be a mixed-phase reservoir, requiring proper processing techniques to separate the fluids. 3. **Well Completion and Production Planning:** This data can be used to: * **Choose the appropriate well completion method:** For example, a well completion strategy may be chosen to maximize oil production while managing gas and water production. * **Design production equipment:** The flow rate and fluid composition will inform the design of surface equipment, such as separators and pipelines. * **Plan for reservoir management:** Understanding the reservoir pressure and fluid properties is crucial for optimizing production over the long term.
