Investigation of Upscaling Methods for Heterogeneous Permeable Cluster-based Porous Media under Immiscible Two Phase Fluid Flow, Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology ; Masihi, Mohsen (Supervisor) ; Baghghalha, Morteza (Supervisor) ; Ghotbi, Siroos (Supervisor)
Abstract
Upscaling is an important step in hydrocarbon reservoir modeling which reduces the number of grid blocks of high detailed geological models to prepare them for flow simulation. This helps to speed up computational process, to keep the simulation (CPU) time within a reasonable range and to make future engineering analysis (history matching, comparison of production scenarios, Monte Carlo simulation and etc.) possible. The accuracy of post processing analysis heavily depends on the robustness and validation of the applied upscaling method. Although numerous methods have been proposed in the literature, overemphasizing the effect of scale on the behavior of complex governing equations has...
