Opis

This book was written as a joint effort between me and my academic advisor Dr. John Yilin Wang. The book evolves around the idea of reducing, mitigating the deliverability losses associated with gas storage wells. Gas storage wells across the USA are prone to suffer from deliverability losses of 5% per annum, owing to the various damage mechanisms. This loss when compared on a 10 year term can amount to 50%, which is a huge amount to loose in today's energy driven economy. Also a significant amount of money is expended, without a clear knowledge of the damage being addressed. Secondly lot of these wells suffer from multiple damage mechanisms, hence doing a generalized treatment and hoping to get good returns will not serve the purpose. This research study was undertaken to identify the various damage mechanisms the storage wells suffer from and develop appropriate stimulation technologies in order to bypass and mitigate the damage and in turn increase or restore the wells deliverability.
