Numerical Reservoir Simulation
|
Reservoir simulation is a developing application technique
for reservoir development and management. It can be used to
forecast the production behavior of oil and gas fields,
optimize reservoir development schemes, and evaluate the
distribution of remaining oil through history matching, for
example. It is an important tool to help reservoir engineers
optimize the design of well development schemes,
improve the efficiency of reservoir development, and
enhance oil and gas recovery. |
Some of the current research topics in the
Reservoir Simulation Group led by
Professor John Chen
are the following:
- differential formulations (mathematical modeling),
- scanners and grid generators,
- numerical discretization methods,
- linear system solvers,
- solution schemes,
- visualization and post-processing,
- applications,
- experiences.
