Water Alternating Gas
The Challenge
Operators using gas injection to enhance oil recovery often face poor sweep efficiency due to gas override, channeling, or early breakthrough. Alternating gas with water can significantly improve displacement but adds complexity in design, scheduling, and optimization.
The Problem
Traditional simulation tools are too slow and rigid to evaluate multiple WAG cycle designs or injection strategies. This limits the ability to optimize slug size, sequence timing, and injection rates, which directly impacts recovery performance and reservoir conformance. Engineering teams are often left relying on static assumptions or historical patterns.
The Solution
Aqueon enables fast, data-driven optimization of WAG injection strategies by simulating thousands of injection scenarios in minutes. Powered by proxy models and physics-based workflows, it helps engineers determine the best combination of gas and water slugs, injection timing, and cycle design to maximize sweep and recovery. The result is greater control, reduced risk, and higher efficiency in WAG operations.
