(baskin@oiltracers.com) 2 Weatherford Laboratories Inc., Houston, TX (alan.kornacki@weatherfordlabs.com) 3 Weatherford Laboratories, Inc., Dallas, TX (mccaffrey@oiltracers.com) Abstract "Production allocation" involves determining the amount of oil or gas produced from each of several zones in a single well. This traditionally has been accomplished using mechanical logging methods. However, geochemical fingerprinting technology can be used to accurately ( 2% error) allocate commingled production from multiple pay zones at <5% of the cost of production logging. Geochemical fingerprinting is possible when the composition of oil in each reservoir is different. In that case, when oils produced from discrete zones are commingled, subtle chemical differences in a produced oil sample can be used to assess the contribution from each pay zone. This technique uses high-resolution gas chromatography (GC) data obtained on each oil sample, and also requires the availability of samples of each "end-member" oil that contributes to the production stream. GC peak heights, which reflect the abundance of each compound, can be used to allocate commingled production using linear algebra methods. We describe the first known application of geochemical fingerprinting technology to a shale-oil reservoir. We studied 18 oil samples produced from wells completed in the Austin Chalk, the Eagle Ford Formation, or the Buda Formation in two fields in Frio County and La Salle County, South Texas. Our goal was to determine if some of the oil produced from horizontal wells completed in the Eagle Ford Formation contains Buda oil because natural or induced fractures in the Eagle Ford extend into the underlying Buda reservoir (a fractured carbonate). This first required us to determine if: (1) oil fingerprinting can differentiate oils produced from Austin, Eagle Ford, and Buda reservoirs; (2) compositional differences can be used as natural tracers to evaluate vertical communication between Eagle Ford and Buda reservoirs; and (3) the amount (if any) of Buda contribution to "Eagle Ford" oil produced in one of the wells. Our results demonstrate that compositional differences do exist between Austin, Eagle Ford, and Buda oils. Using Buda and Eagle Ford end-member oil samples, we conclude that 9% of the oil produced from a horizontal well completed in the Eagle Ford Formation actually was produced from the underlying Buda Formation.

2 Using the same end-member oil samples, we conclude that oil from a nearby horizontal well only produces oil from the Eagle Ford reservoir in which that well was drilled.

4 Quantifying Commingled Oil Production Presentation Outline Hydrocarbon fingerprinting principles Grouping oil samples produced from the Austin Chalk, the Eagle Ford Formation, and the Buda Formation Applying fingerprinting to allocating commingled oils produced from conventional and horizontal wells Quantifying the mix of Eagle Ford oil and Buda oil produced from two horizontal wells Observations and Conclusions

5 Using HC Fingerprinting Technology to Evaluate Reser- voir Connectivity or Allocate Commingled Production Premise: There are naturally-occurring geochemical differences in oils and gases produced from different reservoirs that can be used to differentiate the samples (even if the oils are genetically related). Application: These subtle geochemical differences are natural tracers that can be used to: (1) evaluate vertical and lateral fluid connectivity, and (2) determine the contribution from each reservoir to a commingled production stream.

9 Quantifying Commingled Oil Production To determine if oils produced from the Austin Chalk, the Eagle Ford Formation, and the Buda Formation can be geochemically differentiated using high resolution gas chromatography If so: Can the fingerprints ofthe oilsbe usedas natural tracers to evaluate vertical and lateral reservoir continuity, and possibly identify organic facies within shale reservoirs? Can the fingerprints be used to determine if oil produced from a well completed in the Eagle Ford Formation actually contains a contribution from the underlying Buda Formation due to inadvertently fracking into the Buda reservoir?

14 Weatherford Method for Finding the Best Solution for the Unmixing Problem The unmixing solution is derived by using naturally occurring compounds in the oils as tracers. Compound abundances are measured by Gas Chromatography (GC). A least squares regression is then performed in n-dimensional space, where n is the number of GC peaks used to solve the allocation problem (~ peaks). Since many more GC peaks are measured than there are producing zones, it is an over-constrained system of equations, and that fact allows us to refine the solution using a number of optimization techniques. The mathematics are described in McCaffrey et al. (2011; SPE ) and (2012) Oil fingerprinting dramatically reduces production allocation costs, World Oil, pp

19 Quantifying Commingled Oil Production Observations and Conclusions Oil fingerprinting differentiates oils produced from Austin, Eagle Ford, and Buda reservoirs into distinct groups. Statistical analysis of GC data obtained on a suite of oils produced from a reservoir can identify oils whose composition represents the oil retained by that reservoir. Fingerprinting can identify oil samples that contain oil produced from a different reservoir than the reservoir in which a well was drilled and completed. Fingerprinting can be used to allocate percent contribution from each reservoir in a commingled oil provided adequate single- zone end member samples are available.
