1.2 OBJECTIVES
The main
purpose of reservoir characterization is to generate a more
representative geologic model of the reservoir properties. The
objectives of this study are as follows.
In building a static
representation of what a reservoir is most likely to be it is necessary
to adequately capture the uncertainty associated with not knowing its
exact picture. In the effort of capturing the uncertainty, this study
focuses on generating multiple equiprobable realizations of the
reservoir with each having unique static and dynamic properties.
Only
a few number of the realizations generated could be carried on for
complex flow simulation due to the computational cost. Usually ranking
of the realizations to select a limited number are done by static means
which do not capture the dynamic mechanisms essential to reservoir
performance. Only few dynamic ranking measures are currently in use.
This research work seeks to define new dynamic ranking criteria and
compare them with existing criteria.

ABSRACT - [ Total Page(s): 1 ]ABSTRACTTechniques in Geostatistics are increasingly being used to generate reservoir models and quantify uncertainty in reservoir properties. This is achieved through the construction of multiple realizations to capture the physically significant features in the reservoir. However, only a limited number of these realizations are required for complex fluid flow simulation to predict reservoir future performance. Therefore, there is the need to adequately rank and select a few of the realizations ... Continue reading---
