Abstract
This study discusses methods to develop low resistivity, low contrast (LRLC) formation in Indonesia. LRLC
formations were found throughout Talang Akar formation but were initially interpreted as non-productive
formations. This study focuses on the development of LRLC zones, through the use of horizontal well, 5-spot
well patern and water injection, these zones could be developed economically.

Reservoir simulation is conducted on field X within 20 years of production period to forecast how effective
horizontal well and water injection to improve the oil recovery factor in a low permeability reservoir. Thus,
sensitivity studies were created to find the optimum recovery factor by varying operational parameter (i.e., water
injection rates). The author varies the water injection rate from 500 bbl/d to 3000 bbl/d. Those numbers are chosen
because the initial total production oil rate is 2000 bbl/d.

After the reservoir simulation has been done in CMG, the base case without water injection results cumulative
oil production for 20 years is 993.67 MSTB (Recovery Factor = 46%) for one pattern. For the best technical is
with 2000 bbl/d water injection rate which produces 1322.07 MSTB (Recovery Factor = 61.24%). The most
profitable scenario is also acquired when the water injection rate is 2000 bbl/d. This scenario could give the Net
Present Value at a 10 percent discount rate of $ 18,309,909.71 and IRR of 54%.

Penelitian ini membahas metode untuk mengembangkan formasi yang berkarakteristik low resistivity, low

ditafsirkan sebagai formasi non-produktif. Studi ini berfokus pada pengembangan zona LRLC, melalui
penggunaan sumur horizontal, pola sumur 5 titik dan injeksi air, agar zona ini dapat dikembangkan secara
ekonomis.

Simulasi reservoir dilakukan pada lapangan X selama 20 tahun, untuk memperkirakan seberapa efektif injeksi air

Setelah simulasi reservoir dilakukan dalam CMG, skenario dasar denagn laju injeksi air 0 bbl/d menghasilkan
produksi minyak kumulatif selama 20 tahun adalah 993,67 MSTB (RF = 46%) untuk satu pola. Untuk skenario
teknis terbaik adalah dengan laju injeksi air 2000 bbl/d yang menghasilkan 1322,07 MSTB (RF = 61.24%) untuk

ini dapat memberikan $ 18.309.909,71 Net Present Value pada discount rate 10 persen dan IRR 53.66%.
