Formation damage is the reduction of a well's productivity due to the alteration of the permeability of the subsurface rock, leading to economically inefficient operations. This research established a methodology to diagnose such damage, which is divided into: 1) Identification of operational problems, 2) Field sampling and analysis of geological and engineering data, 3) Adaptation of API standards for the study of fluid-fluid and rock-fluid interactions, 4) Identification of damage mechanisms and recommendations. This methodology was applied to two depleted wells in a brown oilfield with reduced productivity to address scale deposition and casing corrosion issues. Finally, the application of control and stimulation fluids must satisfy technical and environmental requirements, with the objective of inducing destabilization of the identified formation damage mechanisms.
El daño de formación es la reducción de la productividad de un pozo debido a la alteración de la permeabilidad de la roca subsuperficial, conduciendo a operaciones económicamente ineficientes. Esta investigación estableció una metodología para diagnosticar dicho daño, la cual se divide en: 1) Identificación de los problemas operativos, 2) Toma de muestras de campo y análisis de datos geológicos e ingenieriles, 3) Adaptación de las normas API para el estudio de las interacciones fluido-fluido y roca-fluido, 4) Identificación de los mecanismos de daño y recomendaciones. Esta metodología se aplicó a dos pozos depletados en un yacimiento con baja productividad para abordar los problemas de deposición de incrustaciones y corrosión. Finalmente, la aplicación de fluidos de control y estimulación deben cumplir los requisitos técnicos y medioambientales, con el objetivo de inducir la desestabilización de los mecanismos de daño a la formación identificados.
