This book covers and expands upon material presented by the author at a CBMS-NSF Regional Conference during a ten-lecture series on multiphase flows in porous media and their simulation. It begins with an overview of classical reservoir engineering and basic reservoir simulation methods and then progresses through a discussion of types of flows - single-phase, two-phase, black oil (three-phase), single phase with multicomponents, compositional, and thermal. The practical aspects of reservoir simulation, such as data gathering and analysis, selection of a simulation model, history matching, and reservoir performance prediction, are summarized.
Zhangxin Chen is Foundation CMG Chaired Professor in the Department of Chemical and Petroleum Engineering at the University of Calgary, Canada, and the Chang Jiang Chaired Professor at Xi'an Jiantong University, China.
