“Integrated Reservoir Modeling – Challenges and Solutions”By Dr. Mohan Kelkar, University of Tulsa
ABSTRACT:
Integrated reservoir modeling involves integration of geological, geophysical and engineering data to develop a comprehensive reservoir description. An appropriate application of the process involves several challenges. These include: scale and resolution of various data sources, quality and information content of information, qualitative observations and solutions of inverse models. Dr. Kelkar’s presentation will discuss various methods of overcoming these challenges. Through a series of case studies, a workflow process will be discussed which will allow the development of multiple, history matched, reservoir descriptions which can quantify uncertainties in future performance. The proposed workflow is practical and at the same time will overcome the drawbacks of conventional approaches. BIOGRAPHY:
