The course provides an overview of oil and gas reservoir modeling and simulation as well as steps of reservoir simulation, from reservoir modeling to well history matching. Students will learn how to construct differential equations for fluid flows in oil and gas reservoirs for fields ranging from simple to complex (single-phase, two-phase and multi-phase fields); use the finite difference method to calculate the simulation of a single-phase reservoir in one- and two-dimensional space; learn how to simulate two-phase fields without phase transition (black oil model) and simulate fields with phase transition (compositional model). Students will practise simulating oil and gas reservoirs by specialized software using well geophysical measurement data, based on which establish a reservoir model, then perform reservoir production simulation, well history matching and production forecast.
