Reservoir simulation in porous media is a critical research area that combines advanced mathematical modelling, physics and numerical techniques to predict the behaviour of fluid flow in subsurface ...

Purpose: Reservoir simulation in deepwater fields quantifies in-place fluids, forecast production/injection, and tests development options under tight subsea and topsides constraints. It integrates ...

Carbon capture and storage (CCS) project sanctioning requires reasonable estimates of CO 2 storage volume and plume migration in the reservoir. Numerical simulation based on geological data provides ...

I.1 Purpose: Test plausible geological/fluid scenarios dynamically to estimate ranges for rates, pressures, and recovery factors before or immediately after the first exploration well. I.2 Value-chain ...

Chevron USA Inc. developed an extended embedded discrete fracture model (EDFM) which combines parent-well flow simulation with updated reservoir stress fields to predict growth of child-well fracture ...
