Outcrops are excellent sources of continuous data which can be incorporated into subsurface reservoir modeling either by 1) building an outcrop "reservoir" model, or 2) identifying and developing outcrop analogs of subsurface reservoirs.
This seminar will address how numerical modeling of depositional systems can be used to test geological hypotheses and improve our understanding of subsurface reservoirs.
Pore size distribution and pore connectivity are vital parameters governing the hydrocarbon production of subsurface reservoirs.
Different kinds of subsurface reservoirs have been proposed for geologic disposal of greenhouse gases, including saline aquifers (brine formations), depleted or depleting oil and gas reservoirs, and coalbeds.
(Same as GP241) Practical methods for quantitative characterization and uncertainty assessment of subsurface reservoir models integrating well-log and seismic data.
Bearing this argument in mind, we explore how permeability can be predicted consistently within the Kozeny Carman formalism, by varying the radii of the conduits, their number, and type for effective modeling of the subsurface reservoir.
The observed fracture patterns in outcrops may have implications on fluid flow and reservoir modelling in subsurface reservoirs, and we have therefore undertaken a case study of fracturing associated with regional folding in Iraqi Kurdistan.
This chapter explores what controls the uncertainties, and how the data is gathered and interpreted in order to form a model of the subsurface reservoir.
This paper develops a mathematical model of how subsurface reservoir uncertainty, in particular estimated ultimate recovery (EUR), can evolve over time.
Annotation of the genome sequence of G. bemidjiensis indicates several differences in metabolism compared to previously sequenced non-subsurface Geobacteraceae, which will be useful for in silico metabolic modeling of subsurface bioremediation processes involving Geobacter species.
Flash calculations have become a performance bottleneck in the simulation of compositional flow in subsurface reservoirs.
