Diagnostics and Assessment
- Gather required onsite and archived data
for analysis. If practical this may include wireline logs, pressure and flow tests
- Perform software simulations of the blowout
under various possible, but unknown, scenarios. Scenarios include sensitivities
in: flowpaths, fluids (gas, oil, water), fluid ratios, fluid properties, temperature
and flowrate (inflow performance, kh, pressure, draw down)
- Match the simulated blowout scenarios to
the observations
- Make an assessment on the most probable
blowout scenarios
- Define blowout flow problem for which a
control strategy will be developed
