Numerical Simulation of Three-Phase Flow in Heterogeneous Porous Media
We describe an efficient numerical simulator, based on an operator splitting technique, for three-phase flow in heterogeneous porous media that takes into account capillary forces, general relations for the relative permeability functions and variable porosity and permeability fields. Our numerical procedure combines a non-oscillatory, second order, conservative central difference scheme for th...
متن کاملSoft sensing for two-phase flow using an ensemble Kalman filter
A new approach for real-time monitoring of horizontal wells, which is based on data assimilation concepts, is presented. Such methodology can be used when the direct measurement of multiphase flow rates is unfeasible or even unavailable. The real-time estimator proposed is an ensemble Kalman filter employing a dynamic model of the pipe flow and information from several downhole pressure sensors...
متن کاملOperator Splitting for Three-Phase Flow in Heterogeneous Porous Media
We describe an operator splitting technique based on physics rather than on dimension for the numerical solution of a nonlinear system of partial differential equations which models three-phase flow through heterogeneous porous media. The model for three-phase flow considered in this work takes into account capillary forces, general relations for the relative permeability functions and variable...
متن کاملResampling the ensemble Kalman filter
Ensemble Kalman filters (EnKF) based on a small ensemble tend to provide collapse of the ensemble over time. It is shown that this collapse is caused by positive coupling of the ensemble members due to use of one common estimate of the Kalman gain for the update of all ensemble members at each time step. This coupling can be avoided by resampling the Kalman gain from its sampling distribution i...
متن کاملLocalization in the ensemble Kalman Filter
Data assimilation in meteorology seeks to provide a current analysis of the state of the atmosphere to use as initial conditions in a weather forecast. This is achieved by using an estimate of a previous state of the system and merging that with observations of the true state of the system. Ensemble Kalman filtering is one method of data assimilation. Ensemble Kalman filters operate by using an...
