    Overview of simulation workflow with Eclipse and Petrel (Customized)

    This course is a compressed version of Eclipse* Blackoil simulation and the Petrel* E&P software platforms of Reservoir Engineering (RE) and Uncertainty and Optimization.

    The training acquaints you with the basic features and keywords of the Eclipse Blackoil simulator. Each section of the input data and its file handling characteristics are presented, then a practical
    exercise allows you to construct a simulation model from scratch.
    The discussion incorporates the pre- and post-processors of Petrel RE as integral parts of the process, and it includes an explanation of the relationship between Eclipse and Petrel RE.
    You will build a 3D simulation model inside Petrel that is based on geological input data. You will add wells and well control rules, create black oil fluid models and rock physics functions, and submit the model to the simulators.
    In reservoir simulation studies, petroleum engineers use the Petrel Uncertainty and optimization tool to manage reservoir uncertainties and maximize key objectives. The Petrel Uncertainty and optimization tool allows you to directly modify model parameters in integrated Petrel processes across several domains.
