Course Objectives
After completing this course successfully, students should be able to:
1. apply appropriate analytical solutions for the flow of slightly-compressible fluids (single-phase) in porous media penetrated with a single-well, operated with a constant-rate, considering boundary conditions and flow regimes
2. apply analytical solutions for the flow of slightly-compressible fluids (single-phase) in porous media for multi-well, multi-rate situations using the superposition principle and image well theory
3. apply analytical solutions for the flow of slightly-compressible fluids (single-phase) in porous media for reservoir characterization from well-test measurements
4. apply quantitative immiscible-displacement theories for forecasting waterflooded reservoir performance and estimating relative permeability from displacement experiments
Course Content
Steady and unsteady state single phase flow equations through porous media, steady and unsteady superposition. Multiphase flow through porous media. Reservoir characterization in homogeneous and heterogeneous reservoirs by pressure and tracer testing.
