Solving Reservoir Simulation Equations
نویسنده
چکیده
Reservoir simulation is a necessary tool for making decisions. It is through numerical simulation that one can obtain knowledge pertaining to the processes occurring in the interior of an oil reservoir and hence, to enable an analysis of the various recovery strategies in order to guarantee optimal exploitation. History matching, optimization, and what-if scenarios require the simulation of large numbers of complex field-scale models.

Knowledge – Based Reservoir Simulation – A Novel Approach
It is well known that reservoir simulation studies are very subjective and vary from simulator to simulator. While SPE benchmarking has helped accept differences in predicting petroleum reservoir performance, there has been no scientific explanation behind the variability that has frustrated many policy makers and operations managers and puzzled scientists and engineers. In a recent book by the...
متن کاملA Two-Level Variant of Additive Schwarz Preconditioning for Use in Reservoir Simulation
The computation time for reservoir simulation is dominated by the linear solver. The sets of linear equations which arise in reservoir simulation have two distinctive features: the problems are usually highly anisotropic, with a dominant vertical flow direction, and the commonly used fully implicit method requires a simultaneous solution for pressure and saturation or molar concentration variab...
متن کاملSemiconductor Device Simulation by a New Method of Solving Poisson, Laplace and Schrodinger Equations (RESEARCH NOTE)
In this paper, we have extended and completed our previous work, that was introducing a new method for finite differentiation. We show the applicability of the method for solving a wide variety of equations such as Poisson, Lap lace and Schrodinger. These equations are fundamental to the most semiconductor device simulators. In a section, we solve the Shordinger equation by this method in sever...
متن کاملReduction of Reservoir Fluid Equilibrium Calculation for Peng-Robinson EOS with Zero Interaction Coefficients
For some of the EOS models the dimension of equilibrium problem can be reduced. Stability and difficulties in implementation are among the problems of flash calculation. In this work, a new reduction technique is presented to prepare a reduced number of equilibrium equations. Afterwards, a number of appropriate solution variables are selected for the prepared equation system to solve the equati...
متن کاملFlow Simulation in Heterogeneous Reservoirs using the Dual Reciprocity Boundary Element Method and the Green Element Method
Green’s functions are established tools for solving petroleum engineering flow problems. Their utility and rigor was extended to arbitrarily shaped reservoirs using the Boundary Element Method (BEM). Traditional BEMs are limited to single-phase flow in homogeneous reservoirs. Earlier authors have developed techniques to handle heterogeneity. These methods are perturbationbased and computation-i...
