    Tm4112 - 5 One-Dimensional 1phase

    Uploaded by

    Ray Yuda
    This document describes one-dimensional, single-phase reservoir simulation. It discusses modeling a single fluid phase (gas, water, or oil) and derives the governing partial differential equation. The PDE is then written in difference form using transmissibility terms and a storage coefficient. Boundary conditions of no flow and constant well production rates or bottom-hole pressures are also covered.

    ONE-DIMENSIONAL,

    ONE-PHASE RESERVOIR
    SIMULATION
    Fluid systems
     In one phase reservoir simulation we would deal
    with one of the following fluid systems:
     One phase gas, fluid behavior is governed by our Black
    Oil fluid model, so that

     One phase water, a density described by

     One phase oil, in the Black Oil fluid model, oil density
    is described by:
    PDE form of single phase flow
     The continuity equation for a one phase, one-
    dimensional system of constant cross-sectional
    area to be:

     for one dimensional, horizontal flow is:

     Using the fluid model defined above:


    PDE form of single phase flow
     the PDE that describes single phase flow in a one dimensional
    porous medium:

    fluid flow in the reservoir,


    injection/production

    storage (compressibilities of rock and fluid).

     In order to bring the right hand side of the equation on a form


    with pressure as a primary variable, we will rearrange the term
    before proceeding to the numerical solution.
     Chain rule differentiation yields:

     use of the compressibility definition for


    porosity's dependency of pressure

     and the fluid model above:


     The right hand side may then be written:

     the flow equation becomes:

     fluid compressibility may be defined in terms of


    the formation volume factor as:
     an alternative form of the flow equation is:
    Difference form of the flow equation
     Left side term

     is of the form:

     which we previously derived the following


    approximation for:
     in terms of the actual flow equation above:

     transmissibility as being the coefficient in front of


    the pressure difference appearing in the
    approximation above:
     Transmissibility in plus direction

     Transmissibility in minus direction


     the difference form of the flow term in the
    partial differential equation becomes:

     the transmissibility consists of three groups of


    parameters:
     Average of Permeability
     Starting with Darcy's equation:

    integrate the equation above between block centers:


     The left side may be integrated in parts over the
    two blocks in our discrete system

     defining an average permeability


     Fluid mobility term

     Replacing the fluid parameters by mobility


     the average mobility terms are:
     Right side term

     by using the backward difference approximation

     define a storage coefficient as:

     the right side approximation becomes:


     the difference form of the single phase flow
    equation is
    Boundary conditions and
    production/injection terms
     No flow boundaries

     Production/injection wells
    Constant well production rate, Qi
     For a constant well rate of Qi at surface
    conditions, which is the most common well rate
    specification, the per volume rate becomes:
    Constant well bottom-hole pressure
     a well producing or injecting at a constant
    bottom hole pressure, Pbhi , the well rate is
    computed :
