Dynamic Reservoir Modeling
This self-paced course provides expert knowledge on the workflow of dynamic reservoir modeling. It covers the essential theoretical steps of data preparation, history matching, and production forecasting to create accurate performance predictions for resource evaluation.
Description
Dynamic reservoir modeling is the industry-standard method for predicting field performance and optimizing recovery strategies. This e-learning program bridges the gap between static geological models and engineering application, offering a deep dive into the construction and validation of dynamic simulations. Participants will explore critical methodologies such as grid upscaling, model initialization, and the principles of history matching to validate reservoir performance. The curriculum emphasizes the theoretical frameworks necessary to understand model limitations, perform quality control on input data, and design meaningful prediction scenarios.
To reduce uncertainty and make informed investment decisions, engineers must rely on accurate representations of fluid flow in the subsurface. This course introduces the integrated workflows necessary to design, build, and validate dynamic models. By mastering the physics behind simulation, learners will gain the skills to define appropriate development strategies, assess model stability, and distinguish between numerical errors and physical reservoir responses.
Participants will learn to understand the basic principles and equations involved in reservoir simulation, enabling them to define the data requirements for conducting comprehensive studies. The course enables learners to design appropriate grid systems (coarse vs. fine), create well completion items, and practice history matching techniques to validate model performance. Additionally, engineers will acquire the skills to upscale reservoir properties, quantify sensitivities to model uncertainty, and screen alternative production strategies to optimize field development.
This is a self-paced e-learning program designed to provide a deep understanding of dynamic modeling principles through theoretical lectures and analytical case studies. The methodology focuses on the fundamental workflows, manual calculation concepts, and diagnostic interpretation techniques, allowing professionals to master the physics of modeling and data validation independent of specific commercial tools.
Organizations will benefit from engineering teams capable of critically evaluating simulation results rather than treating models as "black boxes." By equipping staff with strong theoretical modeling foundations, companies can ensure that field development plans are based on rigorous scrutiny of input data and history matching quality, leading to more reliable production forecasts and reduced financial risk.
You will gain advanced technical competence in dynamic modeling, mastering the ability to design grids, initialize models, and interpret complex simulation outputs. This training enhances your analytical skills in key areas such as history matching, uncertainty analysis, and property upscaling, empowering you to lead simulation studies and confidently communicate model results to stakeholders.
