17 SAMPLING WELL RESULTS Objectives 4D FT 2010 dvp/vp over Cx13A AE Viscosified water sampling (water injected in DAL713) to measure viscosity, concentration, and salinity SideTrack 2 SideTrack 1 MDT sampling, Bottom hole sampling, Well later converted to a Producer Cx8 and Cx3 Challenging Operations DAL713 WI Sampling well Well was side-tracked (cased hole) after MDT water sampling. Two Side Tracks due to clay instabilities Side Track 2 completion is now in place. Prod well Entry point in Cx13A reservoir Base SideTrack2 Top DAL713-4WI Viscosified water sampling MDT samples July 2011 Collected from Cx13A / Cx13B and Cx12A Presence of polymer confirmed in expected concentration, Inconclusive viscosity results BHS samples (side track 2) Delayed to July 2012 because of operational issues on well completion Viscosity in line with expectation Producer for Cx3 & Cx8 Very good oil bearing sand intersected at the base 17

18 CONCLUSIONS The sampler well is a success Sampling of polymer in the swept area Producer well for bottom reservoirs Thank to 4D seismic we have been able : To prognose the extension of water To update reservoir model for fitting 4D To detect unproduced layers Extension of polymer injection to the entire field is planned for 2014 This is a full multidisciplinary work 18
