Characterization of Tipam Sandstone from Digboi Oil Field, Upper Assam, India
Physico-mechanical behavior of reservoir rocks in static condition of an oil field is critical to assess the stability of wellbore and other production related issues. Especially if the rock formation is anisotropic, the problem becomes more complex. An attempt is made in this paper to present test results of anisotropic Tipam sandstone from Digboi oil fields of Upper Assam, India under static conditions. The collected sandstone samples subjected to rock mechanics tests at different angles β = 0°, 30°, 45°, 60°, 90° were conducted. Also, high-pressure triaxial tests in static loading were conducted in dry and saturated conditions. The reservoir 1D and 3D Mechanical Earth model was carried out using Techlog and Petrel software from two wellbore data sets up to a depth of 2400 m to assess the wellbore stability incorporating anisotropy into consideration. The results indicate that the wells are critical at β = 45°, under saturated conditions. Necessary wellbore stability measures are recommended based on the results of Digboi oil field.
