A New Analytical Formulation for Tracer Injection Models Applied to Fractured Reservoirs
Authors M. Coronado, J. Ramírez-Sabag and O. Valdiviezo-MijangosP008 A NEW ANALYTICAL FORMULATION FOR TRACER INJECTION MODELS APPLIED TO FRACTURED RESERVOIRS Abstract 1 In the last three decades tracer tests has become an important technique to determine preferential flow directions and characterize reservoirs in oil fields. Knowing main communication channels and their properties in a reservoir is crucial in designing improved oil recovery strategies based on fluid injection such as water flooding. Many of the analytical models developed to describe tracer transport in porous media consider semi-infinite systems and pose conditions on the tracer concentration at the injection border. It has been shown recently that this type of

The Definition of a Lithologic Well Profile with Application of Artificial Neural Networks
Authors V.E. Lyalin, V.V. Vasilyev, S.I. Kachurin and L.E. TonkovP009 THE DEFINITION OF A LITHOLOGIC WELL PROFILE WITH APPLICATION OF ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORKS Abstract 1 Nowadays the advantages of an artificial intelligence allows to reach a better quality level of well log data processing as it allows to use automated hardware-software complexes functioning practically without involvement of a person. In this case the purpose of the work was the development and scientifically valid application of multilayer neural network (NN) for a solution of the task of qualitative well log data interpretation. The application of this network is of great importance in the field of processing and express-interpretation of logging

Modeling the Effect of Saturation Change on Seismic Signature for Carbonate Reservoirs
Authors A.K. Tyagi, B. Jee and P. TyagiP010 MODELING THE EFFECT OF SATURATION CHANGE ON SEISMIC SIGNATURE FOR CARBONATE RESERVOIRS Abstract 1 The compressional acoustic waves in carbonates are assumed to travel primarily through the rock matrix and fluid does not play much of role. Extensive study has established the relationship between changes in acoustic property with saturation in clastics. However little is proposed for the interpretation of the Vp/Vs ratio in carbonates. Various studies like Li et. al. 2003 and Eberli et. al.’ 2003 and Alain Brie ‘ 2001 were published to monitor the changes in Vp/Vs ration with respect to saturation for heterogeneous carbonates.

Local Grid Refinement Methods for Basin Modeling – Migration Modeling
Authors Y. Caillabet, E. Flauraud and F.J.S. SchneiderP011 LOCAL GRID REFINEMENT METHODS FOR BASIN MODELING – MIGRATION MODELING Abstract 1 Local grid refinement (LGR) is applied in reservoir simulation routinely for structured and unstructured grids and implemented in commercial simulators. It is used to add detail where justified by data availability and to keep a coarse resolution where less data are available. In basin modelling LGR has not yet been implemented. It could be used in situations where seismic data are available at individual structures or prospects but not elsewhere in kitchen areas or within the sedimentary cover. Even more importantly for appraisal studies a data set

Introducing a New Generation of Reservoir Simulation Software
Authors J.-M. Gratien, J.-F. Magras, P. Quandalle and O. RicoisP013 INTRODUCING A NEW GENERATION OF RESERVOIR SIMULATION SOFTWARE Abstract 1 As full field reservoir simulations require a large amounts of computing resources the trend is to use parallel computing to overcome hardware limitations. With a price to performance ratio often better than for traditional machines and with services in constant progress Linux clusters have become a very attractive alternative solution to traditional high performance facilities. Therefore oil&gas companies have very quickly been moving to these new architectures. This paper presents the new reservoir simulation software developed at IFP which has been specially designed for Linux clusters. The parallel model

WAG Study– DOE-Based Sensitivity Analysis and Matrix Fracture Interaction Upscaling
Authors T.E.H. Esmaiel, S. Fallah, S.A. Haghighat and C.P.J.W. van KruijsdijkP014 WAG STUDY – DOE-BASED SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS AND MATRIX FRACTURE INTERACTION UPSCALING Abstract 1 The fundamental aspects of WAG (Water Alternating Gas) injection are still not well understood. This paper discusses two research topics into the WAG process being currently studied at TUDelft. The first part of this study looks at the sensitivity of production to rock and fluid properties on a pattern scale using tools derived from experimental design and response surface modeling. The second aspect discussed involves the fine-scale interaction of the WAG process in fractured media compared to the dual porosity formulation used in commercial simulators. The
