*) still on work. Progress bar
This repository is still worked on. However, each week or so, there will be a teaser posted in my LinkedIn, about one reservoir simulation case and how PyReSim is used to solve. It will be scheduled for launch once all simulators have been set up and complete (scheduled in 2021). See my progress bar to keep updated, stay tuned!
| Aspects | Availability |
|---|---|
| Reservoir geometry | Regular 1D and 2D; 2D cylindrical well simulation; 2D reservoir with different elevations; 2D reservoir with irregular boundaries; 3D reservoir (*) |
| Reservoir property | Homogeneous (both isotropic & anisotropic permeability); heterogeneous (*) |
| Boundary conditions | Specified flow rate; Specified pressure; Specified pressure gradient; No flow |
| Well details | Diameter; skin factor; location at the grid block (center, edge, or corner) |
| Well-operating conditions | Specified flow rate (producer/injector well); Specified flowing borehole pressure (FBHP); Specified pressure gradient; Shut-in |
| Reservoir fluid types | Single-phase incompressible fluid (brine), slightly-compressible fluid (undersaturated oil), compressible fluid (gas); Multi-phase reservoir (brine-oil-gas) |
| Solver methods | Matrix inversion (very 3x basic method); explicit; implicit; Crank-Nicholson; many more. |
(*) These aspects are still not available on the first launch (in 2021). It will be available on the second launch (afterwards).

| 1 |  Click here for case description |
A gas-free oil in a 2D reservoir with uniform grid dimension. Reservoir boundary in the west has constant pressure, in the east is sealed (no flow), in the south has pressure gradient, and in the north has constant rate. Five wells penetrates the reservoir, with various wellbore radius, skin, and operating conditions. |

| 2 |  Click here for case description |
A 2D reservoir with irregular boundaries hosting a volatile oil. The reservoir is bounded by a constant pressure. 2 wells penetrate into the reservoir, and the flow rate as well as FBHP will be reported after 50 days. |

The same 2D reservoir in Teaser 2, has now elevations (Pseudo-3D). The reservoir hosts gas. The reservoir is bounded by a constant pressure. 2 wells penetrate into the reservoir, and the flow rate as well as FBHP will be reported after 50 days. |

PyReSim will be performed to a more challenging case. This case is obtained from a "Chapter Project" in Basic Applied Reservoir Simulation (Ertekin, Abou-Kassem, King; 2001). In this case, the reservoir geometry is complex (irregular boundary, varied grid size) and reservoir property is heterogeneous. See more details of this case
These is a list contains several options for contributions:
- Help writing and translating a reservoir data into Schlumberger ECLIPSE format, or JSON format
- (Updated more soon)
Let's make PyReSim better together. If you're confident to contribute, please let me know and mail me
