Faulted reservoirs are commonly modeled by corner-point grids (CPGs). Because the two- point flux approximation (TPFA) method is not consistent on non-K-orthogonal grids, multi …
Modern reservoir simulation must handle complex compositional fluid behavior, orders-of- magnitude variations in rock properties, and large velocity contrasts. We investigate how …
Consistent discretization methods are a natural fit for the novel cut-cell gridding technique for reservoir simulation, which preserves the orthogonality characteristic in the lateral …
Numerical smearing is oftentimes a challenge in reservoir simulation, particularly for complex tertiary recovery strategies. We present a new high-resolution method that uses …
Discretization methods have been developed to accompany a novel cut-cell gridding technique for reservoir simulation that preserves the orthogonality characteristic in the lateral …
The representation of faults and fractures using cut-cell meshes often results in irregular non- orthogonal grids. Simple finite volume approaches fail to handle complex meshes because …
With the digital transformation of the oil and gas industry, new processes like the proposed alternative history matching methodology are required to leverage the growing variety of …
