The course is designed to give an introduction to the fundamental and practical aspects of modern reservoir simulation. Particular emphasis is placed upon the available data and its integration into a data set that reflects a coherent model of the reservoir. These aspects are reinforced with small practical examples run by groups of the course participants. The course is organized in morning lecture sessions and afternoon practical sessions. This course includes the use of computers, which are provided at additional cost, for each two participants.
Reservoir and petroleum engineers who will be actively using reservoir simulation.
