Advanced Petroleum Reservoir Simulation

Karen Londono Franco

AI-generated Abstract

This volume highlights the critical shortcomings and assumptions in conventional petroleum reservoir simulation methods, advocating for a new knowledge-based mathematical approach. It intends to provide engineers and graduate students with a model that not only addresses the embedded variability inherent in reservoir simulation equations but also enhances prediction accuracy and efficiency. By emphasizing the importance of accurate data and the recognition of various error sources, the book aims to transform the subjective nature of reservoir simulations into a more scientifically grounded practice.
