Water Injection Souring & Scaling Modeling
Integrated Flow Modeling & Water Injection Performance
Viking uses commercial reservoir modeling packages to undertake evaluations of water injector placement and to estimate and optimize water injection performance. This is often linked to services such as injection system design and optimization and the management of scaling and souring impacts as a result of water injection.
Souring & Scaling Modeling & Management
One of the biggest uncertainties when planning water injection is the subsequent impact on production operations. Major challenges Include:
Health and safety management
Blockage of flow and the associated deferred production.
Remediation costs from scale deposition.
The impact of reservoir souring on materials selection and performance.
Product value
Viking specializes in understanding and managing production issues related to souring and scaling risks. Viking provides risk assessment tools to monitor and evaluate reservoir souring, alongside the use of industry-standard models for scale modeling and three-dimensional reservoir modeling. We develop total quality assurance strategies specific to your needs.

Water flood is a major secondary recovery option for maximizing field production and ultimate oil recovery. Scaling however, is a problematic issue, hindering secondary recovery by forming blockages that can plug vital waterflood components.
