Reservoir Coupling with Pipe-It: A ScriptedLogic Controller Approach

Abstract

The main purpose of this thesis is to propose Reservoir Coupling (RC) solution using ascripted logic controller approach through Pipe-It. The Pipe-It is the open interface framework that allows an entire project to be executed that involves external or third partyprograms such ECLIPSE. The motivation is to solve current limitation of RCfeature in one commercial Reservoir Simulator ECLIPSE. The logic approach formulation has been developed to manage production-scheme logic under target andconstraint at field. The feedbacks of production and injection rates provide dynamic system in the coupled reservoir model. The case example is taken from ECLIPSE RCdatasets and the results verified with ECLIPSE results run.
