A review of the validity of a reservoir simulation model does not need to address whether the model is perfect overall. Rather, a review should address whether or not, a model can be used for a ...

It is convenient, perhaps, that large scale computing evolved just about the time the easiest and biggest strikes for oil and natural gas were over. Since the 1950s, energy companies have always been ...

A new type of buoyancy model can be used to understand the source of residual oil zones (ROZs), both thick and thin, and help determine the likelihood that economically viable recoverable oil resides ...

A novel thermo–salinity-responsive nanographite system, known as the MEGO system, has been developed by researchers at the China University of Petroleum and the University of Alberta, offering a ...

At-a-Glance: The strongest reservoir engineering training stacks core subsurface fundamentals (PVT, SCAL, material balance, well testing), numerical simulation (black-oil/compositional), and reservoir ...

Reservoir modeling integrates geology, petrophysics, geophysics, PVT, and production data into a predictive, physics-based model to forecast fluid flow and optimize field development and operations.
