RAPID
RESERVOIR MODELING -
EXPLORING UNCERTAINTY WITH
INTERACTIVE PROTOTYPING OF
RESERVOIR GEOLOGY AND FLOW
DIAGNOSTICS
|
Constructing or refining complex
reservoir models at the appraisal,
development, or production stage is a
challenging, time-consuming task, with a
high degree of uncertainty. The lack of an
intuitive set of modeling, simulation and
visualization tools that support expert
interpretation from geophysicists,
geologists and reservoir engineers
significantly increases the challenge. A
particular limitation is the lack of
software that allows conceptual models to
be rapidly created, using a simple,
intuitive interface, and then interrogated
for key reservoir properties and
behaviours. This research project will
develop rapid reservoir modeling (RRM)
software for prototyping complex reservoir
models, by means of novel, interactive,
modeling techniques, exploratory
visualization, and numerical analysis. The
work is planned over three phases, each of
which will deliver a complete RRM
workflow, but with increasing breadth in
input/output data, techniques for rapid
model construction, and sophistication of
the numerical analyses available.
