7.7 Maximum Efficient Rate (MER)

Many studies indicate that the recovery from true solution gas-drive reservoirs by primary depletion is essentially independent of both individual well rates and total or reservoir production rates. Keller, Tracy, and Roe showed that this is true even for reservoirs with severe permeability stratification where the strata are separated by impermeable barriers and are hydraulically connected only at the wells.12 The Gloyd-Mitchell zone of the Rodessa Field (see Chapter 6, section 6.5) is an example of a solution gas-drive reservoir that is essentially not rate sensitive (i.e., the recovery is unrelated to the rate at which the reservoir is produced). The recovery from very permeable, uniform reservoirs under very active water drives may also be essentially independent of the rates at which they are produced.
