Download or read book Mathematical Methods and Modelling in Hydrocarbon Exploration and Production written by Armin Iske and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-01-27 with total page 452 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hydrocarbon exploration and production incorporate great technology challenges for the oil and gas industry. In order to meet the world's future demand for oil and gas, further technological advance is needed, which in turn requires research across multiple disciplines, including mathematics, geophysics, geology, petroleum engineering, signal processing, and computer science. This book addresses important aspects and fundamental concepts in hydrocarbon exploration and production. Moreover, new developments and recent advances in the relevant research areas are discussed, whereby special emphasis is placed on mathematical methods and modelling. The book reflects the multi-disciplinary character of the hydrocarbon production workflow, ranging from seismic data imaging, seismic analysis and interpretation and geological model building, to numerical reservoir simulation. Various challenges concerning the production workflow are discussed in detail. The thirteen chapters of this joint work, authored by international experts from academic and industrial institutions, include survey papers of expository character as well as original research articles. Large parts of the material presented in this book were developed between November 2000 and April 2004 through the European research and training network NetAGES, "Network for Automated Geometry Extraction from Seismic". The new methods described here are currently being implemented as software tools at Schlumberger Stavanger Research, one of the world's largest service providers to the oil industry.
Download or read book Advanced Petroleum Reservoir Simulation written by M. R. Islam and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2010-10-26 with total page 491 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Advanced Petroleum Reservoir Simulation Add precision and ease to the process of reservoir simulation. Until simulation software and other methods of reservoir characterization were developed, engineers had to drill numerous wells to find the best way to extract crude oil and natural gas. Today, even with highly sophisticated reservoir simulations software available, reservoir simulation still involves a great deal of guesswork. Advanced Petroleum Reservoir Simulation provides an advanced approach to petroleum reservoir simulation, taking the guesswork out of the process and relying more thoroughly on science and what is known about the individual reservoir. This state of the art publication in petroleum simulation: Describes solution techniques that allow multiple solutions to the complete equations, without linearization. Solves the most difficult reservoir engineering problems such as viscous fingering. Highlights the importance of non-linear solvers on decision tree with scientific argument. Discusses solution schemes in relation to other disciplines and revolutionizes risk analysis and decision making. Includes companion software with 3-D, 3-phase multipurpose simulator code available for download from www.scrivenerpublishing.com. By providing a valuable tool to support reservoir simulation predictions with real science, this book is an essential reference for engineers, scientists and geologists.

Download or read book Mathematical Models and Finite Elements for Reservoir Simulation written by G. Chavent and published by Elsevier. This book was released on 1986-01-01 with total page 389 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Numerical simulators for oil reservoirs have been developed over the last twenty years and are now widely used by oil companies. The research, however, has taken place largely within the industry itself, and has remained somewhat inaccessible to the scientific community. This book hopes to remedy the situation by means of its synthesized presentation of the models used in reservoir simulation, in a form understandable to both mathematicians and engineers.The book aims to initiate a rigorous mathematical study of the immiscible flow models, partly by using the novel `global pressure' approach in treating incompressible two-phase problems. A finite element approximation technique based on the global pressure variational model is presented, and new approaches to the modelling of various kinds of multiphase flow through porous media are introduced.Much of the material is highly original, and has not been presented elsewhere. The mathematical and numerical models should be of great interest to applied mathematicians, and to engineers seeking an alternative approach to reservoir modelling.

Download or read book Technologies and Mathematical Modeling of Fines assisted Oil and Gas Recovery written by Abbas Zeinijahromi and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a PhD thesis by publication. It includes seven published/accepted for publication journal papers and two submitted papers in academic peer reviewed journals. The content of the thesis is also published in ten full volume technical papers of Society of Petroleum Engineering (SPE). The thesis develops a theory for single and two-phase flow in porous media accounting for mobilization, migration, and straining of the natural reservoir fines. This phenomenon has been widely reported in laboratory studies and also well history data. The existing mathematical model, widely used in petroleum reservoir simulation, does not agree with laboratory observations. It contains phenomenological empirical constants which cannot be predicted theoretically. The new closed system of governing equations, proposed in the current thesis, is free of the above mentioned shortcomings. The proposed system contains a new theoretical function describing the rock capacity to liberate fines so-called maximum retention function. This function is based on the micro scale conditions of mechanical equilibrium of fine particles in the porous space. The mechanical equilibrium condition is a torque balance of drag, lifting, electrostatic, gravity, and capillary forces. The maximum retention function is derived for both single-phase and two-phase flows in porous media. The comparison between the modified particle detachment model and the maximum retention function and laboratory and well data has shown a good agreement, which validates the model. An exact analytical solution for single-phase flow in porous media with alternating velocity accounting for fines lifting has been derived, allowing for mathematical description of a laboratory test on the suspension injection into reservoir cores with alternating velocities. Good agreement between the laboratory test results and the mathematical modeling predictions validates the theory developed. Both analytical and numerical models for two-phase flow with induced fines migration have been developed. In reservoir scale approximation, the equivalence between the fines assisted water-flood and adsorption-free polymer flood has been investigated. It allows using the existing commercial simulators to model low salinity water-flood. The results of the modeling allow proposing a new technologically effective and economical method for improved sweep efficiency by fines assisted water-flooding. Moreover, modeling of low salinity water injection shows that permeability reduction due to induced fines migration can slow down the encroaching water in oil/gas reservoir under strong water support. It decreases water production during pressure depletion of oil/gas reservoirs and improves the recovery. Also, a small volume injection of low salinity water can be used to reduce the water conning problem in oil/gas wells and prolong the wells production life.
