To study the coupled thermo-hydrologic-geomechanical processes and their influence on gas and nuclide transport in a two phase flow through the porous medium, a coupling of the thermo-hydrodynamic code TOUGH2 and the thermo-mechanic code FLAC3D is described and applied to analyze three dimensional gas, heat and nuclide transport in a repository for disposal of heat generating nuclear waste in a...

in this research, using an expansive channel in plan and along the longitudinal profile, deltaic reservoir sedimentation was studied. sedimentation in bed load governed conditions and delta formation in reservoir environment is a function of various parameters such as: geometrical shape of reservoir, bottom slope, hydrological properties and hydraulic conditions of inflowing stream, sediment lo...

optimization of reservoir parameters is an important issue in petroleum exploration and production. the ant colony optimization(aco) is a recent approach to solve discrete and continuous optimization problems. in this paper, the ant colony optimization is usedas an intelligent tool to estimate reservoir rock properties. the methodology is illustrated by using a case study on shear wave velocity...

The Oligo-miocene Asmari formation is one of the most important hydrocarbon reservoirs in the southwest of Iran. In order to evaluate reservoir quality and the factors controlling reservoir properties, detailed geological and petrophysical studies were carried out on 242 m of core samples from Asmari reservoir. This study is a part of a larger project that examines depositional history and rese...

In recent years, the use of natural and synthetic fibers in soil improvement has become widespread mechanics applications. Easy to low cost have been subject many geotechnical researches years. this study, results previous mechanical experiments performed on fiber-cohesive mixtures were reviewed a systematical approach. Based data derived from experimental studies available literature, it obser...

Knowledge of the distribution of permeability and porosity in a reservoir is necessary for the prediction of future oil production, estimation of the location of bypassed oil, and optimization of reservoir management. But while the volume of data that can potentially provide information on reservoir architecture and fluid distributions has increased enormously in the past decade, it is not yet ...

Reservoir characterization plays an important role in different parts of an industrial project. The results from a reservoir characterization study give insight into rock and fluid properties which can optimize the choice of drilling locations and reduce risk and uncertainty. Delineating hydrocarbon bearing zones within a reservoir is the main objective of any seismic reservoir characterization...
