Courses

This course will cover the oil recovery mechanisms in fractured reservoirs, which undergo the waterflood or gas cap expansion and gas injection.  How dual porosity reservoirs are modeled with modern numerical simulators and simulation exercises will also be covered.  Participants will also learn about the fundamentals of fractured reservoirs, the geological aspects, and welltesting in fractured reservoirs.  Oil recovery mechanisms, advanced topics in dual porosity simulation, and dual simulation of fractured reservoirs with a compositional simulator will also be covered.  The simulation of triple porosity systems will be discussed during the duration of this course.

Note:  Approximately half of this course will be devoted to problem solving in a workshop format using related software applications.
