Gas Injection With Radioactive Tracer To Determine Reservoir Continuity-East Coalinga Field, California

Journal Article · · JPT, Journal of Petroleum Technology
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2118/4184-PA· OSTI ID:4307825
Radioactive tracers injected with natural gas revealed that desaturated intervals were often continuous over wide areas of the field; those intervals could greatly influence an injection project by acting as thief zones for injected water. The tracer study suggested generally better reservoir sand continuity than could be inferred from a related outcrop study.
