We are honoured to share that Rock Flow Dynamics has been actively involved in a cutting-edge interwell CO2 injection field trial at Pertamina’s field in East Java. As part of this important initiative, we’ve had the privilege of providing technical expertise and support through our advanced reservoir simulation software, tNavigator, which has played a critical …

On November 1, 2024, we had the honour of providing Institut Teknologi Bandung (ITB), Indonesia with academic tNavigator license donations. This contribution is intended to support ITB’s faculty and students in advancing their research and academic pursuits within the field of petroleum engineering. With tNavigator, a leading reservoir simulation software, ITB will gain valuable tools …

Abstract In a numerical simulator, the inflow from the reservoir grid into a producer well is governed by well connections. The transmissibility of each well connection is calculated using a connection transmissibility equation. On Cartesian grids, the pressure equivalent radius ro is calculated using Paceman’s formula. To ensure the denominator of the transmissibility equation remains positive, it …

Abstract This paper delves into an examination of reservoir management and Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) strategies for optimising oil recovery in highly heterogenous confined channel reservoirs characterized by high watercut evolution. It includes the identification of reservoir performance challenges and their root causes while evaluating dynamic reservoir simulation options for selected EOR techniques. The Enyenra …

Abstract In recent years, the oil and gas industry has increasingly leveraged high-performance computing (HPC) to tackle complex reservoir simulations. These simulations are crucial for understanding subsurface conditions, optimizing hydrocarbon recovery, and ensuring efficient resource management. Among the various simulation techniques, compositional modeling stands out due to its ability to capture detailed fluid behavior and …
