Geostatistics and Reservoir Simulation

1. Fundamentals of single phase and multiphase multi-component fluid flow and storage in reservoirs
2. Numerical solution of governing equations using finite difference
3. Introduction to inverse theory and history matching
4. Application of reservoir simulators for field applications

Fundamentals of geostatistics includes

1. Stochastic reservoir simulation
2. Statistical measures
3. Univariate and multivariate Statistics
4. Covariance and variograms
5. Sequential Gaussian simulation
6. Uncertainty quantification

Finally, reservoir simulation and geostatistical analysis are integrated for risk analysis and economy estimation. Laboratory computational exercises are also included.
