Abstract

Idle well reactivation work will support the government^s efforts in the program to achieve oil and gas production of 1 million bopd by 2030.
Utilization of idle wells is a good opportunity to increase production at a relatively low cost, so it is necessary to carry out inventory & evaluation. Idle wells that still have potential and economics from both surface and subsurface aspects can be reactivated and separated based on the work priority scale. The aim of this work is to conduct a well review of idle wells based on surface and subsurface data. After that, create a database related to recommendations for idle well work. The scope of work is shown in Figure 1. This work was carried out by a team consisting of Geologists and Petroleum Engineers using existing GGRP data. Surface data screening begins by collecting data on field names, structure names, well names and block names. Then the well location, well description and well history are recorded before a subsurface evaluation is carried out. Subsurface evaluation as a candidate or potential search for idle wells. Subsurface analysis begins with an evaluation of the well diagram, structural position of the wells.
