Abstract

A study designed to provide insight into the mechanism of gas injection process in reducing gas-well productivity losses due to condensate blocking in the near wellbore region is presented. The effectiveness of lean gas, N₂, and CO₂ Huff 'n' Puff injection technique in removing the liquid dropout accumulation in and around the wellbore is evaluated. The importance of selecting the optimum injection volume and pressure for the successful use of the Huff 'n' Puff process in gas condensate reservoirs is highlighted.
