The coupled geomechanical and dynamic flow simulation work flow described in this paper relies on a multidisciplinary approach to meet future peak gas demands and support clean-energy initiatives.
-
The technology and knowledge base of the E&P sector is poised to play a major role in the newer, lower-carbon energy economy.
-
In Part 1 of a series of articles, the author highlights candidate selection and problem clarification. This section describes how the success rate of solving conformance problems is improved by reducing assumptions and improving your problem understanding prior to executing a solution.

The authors of this paper develop a robust history-matched reservoir simulation model capable of predicting polymerflooding performance in the first such pilot to enhance heavy oil recovery on Alaska’s North Slope.
-
This paper presents autonomous-inflow-control-device installations in multiple horizontal wells of the Singue oilfield development in Ecuador.

One of the more common characteristics of heavy oil reservoirs is a low primary recovery factor, which is mainly because of unfavorable mobility ratios between oil and water, negligible solution drives, and faster decline of reservoir pressures because of relatively low oil compressibility. Most of the technologies that apply to heavy oil reservoirs need to address th…
