Reservoir Simulation: Problems and Solutions

, 2019
Reservoir simulation has been in practice for more than 50 years, but it has recently gained significant momentum because of its wider application to the increasingly complex reservoir systems of today.

Integration of multiscale carbonate reservoir heterogeneities in reservoir simulation

Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, 2013
Abstract The construction of robust reservoir models considering geological carbonate heterogeneities, such as fractures and vugs, upscaling and numerical flow simulation remains a challenge. This work performs a methodology aiming a suitable representation of flow simulation and upscaling techniques according to small and large scale carbonate ...

A model for pseudo-steady and non-equilibrium sorption in coalbed methane reservoir simulation and its application

Journal of Natural Gas Science and Engineering, 2018
Coalbed methane (CBM) reservoir simulation is vital in CBM development. Production of CBM is controlled by a three-step process: gas desorption from the coal matrix, gas diffusion to the cleat system, and gas flow through fractures.

An innovative nitrogen injection assisted in-situ conversion process for oil shale recovery: Mechanism and reservoir simulation study

Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, 2018
In-situ conversion process (ICP) can be an effective technique for the development of oil shale and ultra heavy oils, in which kerogen or heavy components will be cracked into light oils and gases via underground heating and pyrolysis, and the retorted ...

Practical simulation of multi-porosity reservoirs through existing reservoir simulator

Journal of Petroleum Science and Engineering, 2017
Abstract Complex heterogeneous reservoir exhibits special characteristics, such as multiple storage types, wide range of storage sizes, complicated storage combinations, and various flow behaviors. Multi-continuum model is needed to rigorously simulate this type of reservoir.

Enhancing Optimization of Reservoir Simulation Processes in Next-Generation Reservoir Simulators

SPE Reservoir Characterisation and Simulation Conference and Exhibition, 2017
Abstract In field development and management, optimization has turned out to be an integral component for decision-making. Optimization involves computationally intensive complex formulations but simplifies making decisions. For reaching the optimal solution to a defined objective function, optimization software can be combined with a ...

Quantitative Integration of 4D Seismic with Reservoir Simulation

SPE Journal, 2018
Standard history-matching workflows use qualitative 4D seismic observations to assist in reservoir modeling and simulation. However, such workflows lack a robust framework for quantitatively integrating 4D seismic interpretations.

Parallelisation of an oil reservoir simulation

1996
The importance of oil reservoir simulation is self evident. Almost every device with a moving part uses oil for lubrication, most forms of transport rely on oil as a source of power and many manufacturing processes use oil as a raw material. Stocks of oil are limited and our ability to recover the available oil is dependent on our knowledge and ...

Parallel adaptive reservoir simulation

Parallel Computing, 1990
Abstract In oil-industry it is common use to simulate the exploitation of an oil-reservoir by means of some numerical method. Such a numerical method may use the concept of dynamical local grid refinement, in order to mark fronts of water and oil, which move through the reservoir.
