This book was released on 2022-02-08 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Numerical analysis for reservoir engineering scenarios is necessary due to the importance of predict the consequences and products of water or oil exploitation, as well as the vast quantity of variables that are associated with hydraulic engineering, oil, and rock geomechanics. Due to this, the present work consists to show the relative activities for geomechanical coupling and flux simulation based on paper SPE – 79709 of Dean et al. (2006). This way, the used software for coupling was IMEX (2019), in the explicit iterative coupling, with geomechanics and flux model of the same simulator and, posteriorly, was used the geomechanics simulator FLAC3D 6.0 associated with the flux model of IMEX and programming with MATLAB and FISH to transfer the data between simulators. In addition, the results demonstrate the satisfactory obtention of convergence of the problems proposed by Dean et al. (2006), in IMEX with geomechanics. For iterative coupling between FLAC3D and IMEX was obtained good behavior convergence of problem 1. At the end of the simulations, a reservoir model is elaborated based on this problem with the inclusion of a horizontal fracture near the region of the producing well. This type of coupling allows an accurate study with the highest level of complexity and inclusion of variables to reservoir behavior, as the inclusion of fractures and constitutive models.

Book Synopsis Parallel Simulation of Coupled Flow and Geomechanics in Porous Media by : Bin Wang
Download or read book Parallel Simulation of Coupled Flow and Geomechanics in Porous Media written by Bin Wang and published by . This book was released on 2015 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this research we consider developing a reservoir simulator capable of simulating complex coupled poromechanical processes on massively parallel computers. A variety of problems arising from petroleum and environmental engineering inherently necessitate the understanding of interactions between fluid flow and solid mechanics. Examples in petroleum engineering include reservoir compaction, wellbore collapse, sand production, and hydraulic fracturing. In environmental engineering, surface subsidence, carbon sequestration, and waste disposal are also coupled poromechanical processes. These economically and environmentally important problems motivate the active pursuit of robust, efficient, and accurate simulation tools for coupled poromechanical problems. Three coupling approaches are currently employed in the reservoir simulation community to solve the poromechanics system, namely, the fully implicit coupling (FIM), the explicit coupling, and the iterative coupling. The choice of the coupling scheme significantly affects the efficiency of the simulator and the accuracy of the solution. We adopt the fixed-stress iterative coupling scheme to solve the coupled system due to its advantages over the other two. Unlike the explicit coupling, the fixed-stress split has been theoretically proven to converge to the FIM for linear poroelasticity model. In addition, it is more efficient and easier to implement than the FIM. Our computational results indicate that this approach is also valid for multiphase flow. We discretize the quasi-static linear elasticity model for geomechanics in space using the continuous Galerkin (CG) finite element method (FEM) on general hexahedral grids. Fluid flow models are discretized by locally mass conservative schemes, specifically, the mixed finite element method (MFE) for the equation of state compositional flow on Cartesian grids and the multipoint flux mixed finite element method (MFMFE) for the single phase and two-phase flows on general hexahedral grids. While both the MFE and the MFMFE generate cell-centered stencils for pressure, the MFMFE has advantages in handling full tensor permeabilities and general geometry and boundary conditions. The MFMFE also obtains accurate fluxes at cell interfaces. These characteristics enable the simulation of more practical problems. For many reservoir simulation applications, for instance, the carbon sequestration simulation, we need to account for thermal effects on the compositional flow phase behavior and the solid structure stress evolution. We explicitly couple the poromechanics equations to a simplified energy conservation equation. A time-split scheme is used to solve heat convection and conduction successively. For the convection equation, a higher order Godunov method is employed to capture the sharp temperature front; for the conduction equation, the MFE is utilized. Simulations of coupled poromechanical or thermoporomechanical processes in field scales with high resolution usually require parallel computing capabilities. The flow models, the geomechanics model, and the thermodynamics model are modularized in the Integrated Parallel Accurate Reservoir Simulator (IPARS) which has been developed at the Center for Subsurface Modeling at the University of Texas at Austin. The IPARS framework handles structured (logically rectangular) grids and was originally designed for element-based data communication, such as the pressure data in the flow models. To parallelize the node-based geomechanics model, we enhance the capabilities of the IPARS framework for node-based data communication. Because the geomechanics linear system is more costly to solve than those of flow and thermodynamics models, the performance of linear solvers for the geomechanics model largely dictates the speed and scalability of the coupled simulator. We use the generalized minimal residual (GMRES) solver with the BoomerAMG preconditioner from the hypre library and the geometric multigrid (GMG) solver from the UG4 software toolbox to solve the geomechanics linear system. Additionally, the multilevel k-way mesh partitioning algorithm from METIS is used to generate high quality mesh partitioning to improve solver performance. Numerical examples of coupled poromechanics and thermoporomechanics simulations are presented to show the capabilities of the coupled simulator in solving practical problems accurately and efficiently. These examples include a real carbon sequestration field case with stress-dependent permeability, a synthetic thermoporoelastic reservoir simulation, poroelasticity simulations on highly distorted hexahedral grids, and parallel scalability tests on a massively parallel computer.

Book Synopsis Efficient Algorithms for Flow Models Coupled with Geomechanics for Porous Media Applications by : Tameem Mohammad Almani
Download or read book Efficient Algorithms for Flow Models Coupled with Geomechanics for Porous Media Applications written by Tameem Mohammad Almani and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 534 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The coupling between subsurface flow and reservoir geomechanics plays a critical role in obtaining accurate results for models involving reservoir deformation, surface subsidence, well stability, sand production, waste deposition, hydraulic fracturing, CO2 sequestration, and hydrocarbon recovery. From a pure computational point of view, such a coupling can be quite a challenging and complicated task. This stems from the fact that the constitutive equations governing geomechanical deformations are different in nature from those governing porous media flow. The geomechanical effects account for the influence of deformations in the porous media caused due to the pore pressure and can be very important especially in the case of stress-sensitive and fractured reservoirs. Considering that fractures are very much prevalent in the porous media and they have strong influence on the flow profiles, it is important to study coupled geomechanics and flow problems in fractured reservoirs. In this work, we pursue three main objectives: first, to rigorously design and analyze iterative and explicit coupling algorithms for coupling flow and geomechanics in both poro-elasitc and fractured poro-elastic reservoirs. The analysis of iterative coupling schemes relies on studying the equations satisfied by the difference of iterates and using a Banach contraction argument to derive geometric convergence (Banach fixed-point contraction) results. The analysis of explicit coupling schemes result in analogous stability estimates. In this work, conformal Galerkin is used for mechanics, and a mixed formulation, including the Multipoint Flux Mixed Finite Element method as a special case, is used for the flow model. For fractured poro-elastic media, our iteratively coupled schemes are adaptations, due to the presence of fractures, of the classical fixed stress-splitting scheme, in which fractures are treated as possibly non-planar interfaces. The second main objective in this work is to exploit the different time scales of the mechanics and flow problems. Due to its physical nature, the geomechanics problem can cope with a coarser time step compared to the flow problem. This makes the multirate coupling scheme, the one in which the flow problem takes several (finer) time steps within the same coarse mechanics time step, a natural candidate in this setting. Inspired by that, we rigorously formulate and analyze convergence properties of both multirate iterative and explicit coupling schemes in both poro-elastic and fractured poro-elastic reservoirs. In addition, our theoretically derived Banach contraction estimates are validated against numerical simulations. The third objective in this work is to optimize the solution strategy of the nonlinear flow model in coupled flow and mechanics schemes. The global inexact Newton method, combined with the line search backtracking algorithm along with heuristic forcing functions, can be efficiently employed to reduce the number of flow linear iterations, and hence, the overall CPU run time. We first validate these computational savings for challenging two-phase benchmark problems including the full SPE10 model. Motivated by the obtained results, we incorporate this strategy as a nonlinear solver framework to solve the nonlinear flow problem in multirate iteratively coupled schemes. This leads to a scheme that reduces both the number of flow and mechanics linear iterations efficiently. All our numerical implementations in this work are built on top of our in-house reservoir simulator (IPARS).
Book Synopsis Advances in the Study of Fractured Reservoirs by : G.H. Spence
Download or read book Advances in the Study of Fractured Reservoirs written by G.H. Spence and published by Geological Society of London. This book was released on 2014-08-27 with total page 421 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Naturally fractured reservoirs constitute a substantial percentage of remaining hydrocarbon resources; they create exploration targets in otherwise impermeable rocks, including under-explored crystalline basement; and they can be used as geological stores for anthropogenic carbon dioxide. Their complex behaviour during production has traditionally proved difficult to predict, causing a large degree of uncertainty in reservoir development. The applied study of naturally fractured reservoirs seeks to constrain this uncertainty by developing new understanding, and is necessarily a broad, integrated, interdisciplinary topic. This book addresses some of the challenges and advances in knowledge, approaches, concepts, and methods used to characterize the interplay of rock matrix and fracture networks, relevant to fluid flow and hydrocarbon recovery. Topics include: describing, characterizing and identifying controls on fracture networks from outcrops, cores, geophysical data, digital and numerical models; geomechanical influences on reservoir behaviour; numerical modelling and simulation of fluid flow; and case studies of the exploration and development of carbonate, siliciclastic and metamorphic naturally fractured reservoirs.
