Reservoir Modeling of Heavy Oil Resources
$1,000.00
COURSE CONTENT
- Introduction (definitions of heavy oil, types of study, types of modeling, design of study, grid effects, binary screening).
- Basic reservoir engineering and reservoir characterization (overview of reservoir engineering techniques and their limitations for heavy oil, types of geological models, introduction to geostatistical models).
- Rock and fluid data for heavy oil (oil viscosity, thermal properties of reservoir, temperature dependence of relative permeability, etc.).
- Non-thermal recovery of heavy oil (cold heavy oil production with sand, chemical flooding, VAPEX, immiscible gas flooding).
- Thermal recovery using steam (cyclic steam stimulation, steamflood, steam-assisted gravity drainage) .
- Thermal recovery without steam (in-situ combustion, electrical heating, hot water flood, steam with additives)
