Fully compositional and thermal reservoir simulation
Fully compositional and thermal reservoir simulation capabilities are important in oil exploration and production. There are significant resources in existing wells and in heavy oil, oil sands, and deep-water reservoirs. This article has two main goals: (1) to clearly identify chemical engineering sub-problems within reservoir simulation that the PSE community can potentially make contributions...
متن کاملA Review of Coupled Dynamic Well-Reservoir Simulation
The numerical simulation of the dynamic interaction between hydrocarbon reservoirs and wells has been an object of study for over three decades. Such a coupled approach is necessary to solve a variety of dynamic flow problems, such as pressure transient analysis (well testing) with wellbore storage, liquid loading, near-well reservoir clean-up, unstable gas lift, or the development of smart wel...
متن کاملBuilding fast proxies for optimization of thermal reservoir simulation
With decreasing amounts of conventional energy resources available, production of unconventional oil and gas has become an important new source of energy. Steamassisted gravity drainage (SAGD) is a widely used process, allowing the production of very heavy oils. The numerical simulation of SAGD, however, is complex and highly CPU/time intensive. Moreover, the economical cost of this process is ...
متن کاملTie-line Based Parameterization for Thermal Compositional Reservoir Simulation
Thermodynamic equilibrium computations are usually the most time consuming component in compositional reservoir flow simulation. A Compositional Space Adaptive Tabulation (CSAT) approach has been developed in order to speed up the Equation of State (EoS) computations. The methodology adaptively parameterizes the compositional space using a small number of tie-lines, which are assembled into a t...
متن کاملTHE THERMAL 15 RELIEF WELL AND PRODUCTION PERFORMANCE OF THE THERMAL SHALLOW RESERVOIR Phil
Thermal 15 was drilled in November, 1983, to a TD of 700 feet. A steam entry encountered at 490 feet was found to communicate with the highpermeability upflow zone of the Thermal Shallow Reservoir. A low-flowrate, higher-pressure steam entry at 600 feet was not detected while drilling but was indicated during a subsequent spinner survey. The pressure, flowrate, and enthalpy of the five wells co...
