Class Projects:

In order to ensure that you fully understood the material of this course, the application of this project is essential for you.

*Question:

You are asked to simulate a dome shaped oil (with no gas) reservoir using the IMEX black oil simulator and a grid of 27 blocks in I direction, 45 blocks in the J direction, and 4 blocks in the K direction, where the block widths are 300 in both I and J directions.

*Data:

Reservoir Temperature = 150 F
Reservoir pressure = 4500 psi
Bubble point pressure=4900 psi
Rock compressibility = 2e-6 1/psi
Oil density= 35 API
Gas density= 0.7 (Air=1)
Reference pressure=4900psi
Reference depth=10 000 ft
Water salinity=10 000 ppm
Datum Depth = 400ft below reference
Water-Oil contact=100ft below reference

*Tips:

You need to improvise to find solutions in case a parameter was not given and if you found yourself stuck and not able to proceed, try to search in the tools section.

In case you have any question or need me to clarify any point. Don’t hesitate to contact me. Best of Luck and enjoy the project.
