Explore facies within the reservoir grid, identifying sand, shaley sand, and shale through the 3d window, legend, and histogram analysis, with numeric codes for rock types.
Explore permeability in reservoir simulation, inspect grid settings and statistics, and review mean and max permeability values (750 and 1500 mD) with histograms similar to porosity.
Initialize the reservoir model to equilibrium in pressure, temperature, and fluid saturation. Eclipse offers equilibration, enumeration, and restart, using reference depth, fluid contacts, composition, and zero capillary pressure.
Verify run integrity via the simulation log and print file; confirm zero production and constant pressure during initialization, and review oil in place (about 25 million barrels) in charting window.
compare full-field and well-by-well forecasts to see how removing the lower perforation affects water cut, gas-oil ratio, and long-term production in reservoir simulations.
Export reservoir data and charts from Petrel RE and Eclipse to PowerPoint or Excel, including oil, gas, and water production forecasts and rates, with image and spreadsheet exports.
Welcome to this engaging software course on dynamic reservoir simulation using Schlumberger's Petrel RE (Reservoir Engineering) and Eclipse software. Throughout this course, you will gain practical skills and insights into reservoir engineering, equipping you to handle real-life data with confidence.
We will kick off by delving into the fundamentals, introducing you to Petrel’s interface and how to set up for your project correctly.
Thereafter, you will be introduced to the project data and you will learn how to generate dynamic model inputs, ensuring a solid foundation for subsequent stages. You will Initialize your model and see the values of the calculated fluids in place.
Moving forward, you will explore production forecasting, starting with the completion of existing wells and devising prediction development strategies. You will learn to visualize the results of your simulations including a 3D visualization of fluid saturations as they evolve with time.
As the course wraps up, you will master how to export your results as images for PowerPoint or text for Excel.
Key Prerequisites:
To maximize your learning experience, familiarity with reservoir engineering concepts is essential. Prior knowledge of rock and fluid properties, gridding, well completions, and reservoir simulation will facilitate your progress and comprehension throughout the course.
