Reservoir simulation
The objective of this paper is to apply a developed workflow to determine the propped hydraulic fracture geometry in a horizontal multistage fractured well, incorporating production, pressure, and strain data.
The aim of this study is to incorporate detailed geological, petrophysical, and hydraulic fracturing models to better predict and mitigate the effects of interbench interactions.
This study explores the feasibility of implementing in-situ carbon dioxide recycling for sequestration as a fit-for-purpose developmental strategy for a Malaysian gas field characterized by an initial carbon-dioxide content of approximately 60%.

In this paper, the authors introduce a novel semianalytic approach to compute the sensitivity of the bottomhole pressure (BHP) data with respect to gridblock properties. -
This paper critically investigates the impact of using realistic, inaccurate simulation models. In particular, it demonstrates the risk of underestimating uncertainty when conditioning real-life models to large numbers of field data.

History matching is only one part of something more comprehensive—reservoir modeling.

In this paper, the authors derive and implement an interwell numerical simulation model (INSIM) that can be used as a calculation tool to approximate the performance of a reservoir under waterflooding.

Developers of the latest generation of unconventional hydraulic fracturing models are hoping that current weak oil and gas prices will generate newfound interest in their software technology.
-
Although the wellbore is in a nonisothermal environment, heat transfer between the fluid in the wellbore and the formation is often ignored and temperature is usually assumed constant in data interpretation, which will lead to misunderstanding of the pressure profile.

For engineering design teams, the market downturn is an opportunity to review practices and learn from others who have used hard times to reshape processes through simulation while cutting development time and costs.

A matured field is currently producing with greater than 85% water cut (WC) and has significant levels of uncertainty with respect to oil/water contact (OWC), flank structure, depth of spill points, production allocation, and residual oil saturation.
-
Conventional miscible- or near-miscible-gasflood simulation often overestimates oil recovery, mostly because it does not capture a series of physical effects tending to limit interphase compositional exchanges.
