This book is about the design and construction of subsurface reservoir models. In the early
days of the oil industry, oil and gas production was essentially an engineering activity …

Geological modelling is widely used to predict resource potential in subsurface reservoirs.
However, modelling is often slow, requires use of mathematical methods that are unfamiliar …

Sketch-based interface and modelling is an approach to reservoir modelling that allows
rapid and intuitive creation of 3D reservoir models to test and evaluate geological concepts …

Abstract The Mid North Sea High (MNSH) is located on the UKCS in quadrants 35–38 and
41–43. It is a large structural high that is flanked by the mature hydrocarbon provinces of the …

Low-velocity non-Darcy flow often occurs in low permeability reservoirs. In this paper, we
discuss how to incorporate a non-Darcy flow correction into embedded discrete fracture …

Geological faults, which result from rock fracturing and displacement in the subsurface, play
an important role in shaping the Earth's crust. Modeling fault surfaces and their impact on …

Flow diagnostics is a common way to rank and cluster ensembles of reservoir models
depending on their approximate dynamic behavior before beginning full-physics reservoir …

Reservoir modelling tools can be invaluable for integrating knowledge and for supporting
strategic oil field decisions. The pertinent issue is the capability of the modelling toolbox to …

Fault-related displacements impact oil and gas flow predictions at reservoir scales. We have
integrated a quantitative description of fault-related deformation directly embedded into the …

Hydrocarbon reservoir models have a high degree of uncertainty regarding their reservoir
geometry and structure. A range of conceptual models should therefore be generated to …
