Abstract

See full text

A method for reducing undesired water production from a hydrocarbon reservoir, wherein scale formation/deposition in a wellbore from localized water cut increases is used for zonal isolation. Slots or other aperture types are provided in a casing length such as a slotted liner, to encourage scale formation/deposition adjacent water-producing zones, thus isolating such zones and preferentially producing from hydrocarbon-producing zones.
