Skin and Accelerated Recovery Options

Introduction

Accelerated recovery usually represents a scenario in which hydrocarbon’s are recovered faster, while the ultimate EUR remains the same.

Stimulation

In the plots below, the initial skin is +5 which represents formation damage. In one scenario, the well is stimulated to -2 at 150 days, while the second is at 50 days. In both cases, the EUR essentially remains the same as the abandonment pressure of 500 psia is consistent for both cases.
