Reservoir Model

The document describes the integrated reservoir model, which involves a multi-disciplinary team integrating data, tools, technology, and people to develop a comprehensive understanding and digital representation of a reservoir. Key elements include reservoir characterization, development of static and dynamic models, and an iterative workflow to integrate data, characterize the reservoir properties and systems, and simulate and forecast reservoir performance over time. The integrated model provides a holistic view of the reservoir to estimate resources, understand fluid distributions, and predict future production under various operating conditions.

Why Develop Reservoir Model?

 Provides geoscience and engineering “picture” of


reservoir.
 Allows estimates of initial oil and gas in place.
 Allows one to estimate current fluids in place and
distribution of reservoir properties.
 Serves as the basis for predicting future performance
under various operating strategies.
