  • Method for reservoir monitoring, method of preparing a reservoir, and reservoir adapted for monitoring
    Patent number: 11401800
    Abstract: A method for monitoring the production from different zones/sections along a well bore in a subsurface reservoir to draw inferences regarding production gases emerging from the subsurface reservoir, comprising: dividing the reservoir into a plurality of different zones/sections along the well bore; in a completion stage, deploying along the well bore in each such zone/section a release system for the release of at least one oil and/or water tracer material, such that a unique tracer formulation is provided in association with each respective such zone section; in a production stage, producing fluid from the reservoir, separating, sampling and testing liquids from the produced fluid and detecting the tracer materials in the produced liquids, drawing inferences from the detected levels of the tracer materials in the produced liquids regarding the production gases emerging from the subsurface reservoir.
    Type: Grant
