Reservoir Simulation

Apply analytical and numerical simulation techniques to the development, testing and refining of a reservoir model, and the generation of an optimal reservoir exploitation plan.

Upon completion of this module, the participant should be able to define reservoir simulation objectives, define simulator geometry and dimensions, and assign flow equations to the proposed model, define simulator grid and boundary conditions, compile reservoir model input parameters, develop finite-difference approximations to solve the flow equations, plan numerical simulation computer runs and interpret the results, and use simulation results to determine the optimum exploitation scheme.
