Other surface lots in the area cost $8 - $9 and they frequently are full by mid-morning.\r\n \r\nParking is also avail able in the Hyatt Regency Hotel parking garage across the street. Prices vary depending on time in the garage. Cost for 2 hours of parking is $12. Parking is also available via valet at the Louisiana Street entrance of the hotel. Cost is about $10. \r\n \r\n \r\n --- This iCal file does *NOT * confirm registration.Event details subject to change. ---\r\n\r\n--- By Tendenci - The Open Source AMS for Associations ---\r\n UID:uid4185@spegcs.org SUMMARY:General Meeting: The Future of Reservoir Simulation DTSTART:20181108T173000Z DTEND:20181108T190000Z CLASS:PUBLIC PRIORITY:5 DTSTAMP:20240328T203518Z TRANSP:OPAQUE SEQUENCE:0 LOCATION:PETROLEUM CLUB (NEW LOCATION), 35th Floor, TOTAL Building X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:

Reservo ir Simulation has evolved over a period of some 70 or so years to become a routinely used tool for understanding, predicting and optimizing reservoi r performance. Alternative technologies like Decline Curve Analysis, Rate Transient Analysis, and Data Analytics are sometimes touted as offering si milar results to reservoir simulation. Yet most engineers still believe th at understanding and optimizing reservoir and well performance requires a physics-based modelling solution that can account for the multitude of rea l-work phenomena that influence reservoir behavior. \;
This pre sentation will focus on several recent developments in reservoir simulatio n that make the use of this technology more as a result in speedups in the actual simulation process itself and in the automation and control of mul tiple simultaneous runs to achieve history-matching and optimization objec tives more quickly. \; Examples will be presented of the application o f reservoir simulation to onshore unconventional plays and to offshore dee pwater plays.
