NUMERICAL SIMULATION AND SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS OF GAS OIL GRAVITY DRAINAGE EOR

This study aims to shed some light on NUMERICAL SIMULATION AND
SENSITIVITY ANALYSIS OF GAS-OIL GRAVITY DRAINAGE EOR. The
purpose of this project is to investigate the effects of the parameters that control the
process (for example; rate of the gas injection and oil production) and reservoir
heterogeneities on the overall performance of immiscible gravity drainage enhanced
oil recovery (EOR). Reservoir simulation studies will be conducted to map effective
combinations of these parameters with respect to the oil recovery performance.
Simulation runs yield several figures and plots, in which depicts the results of
analysis. This document is a dissertation which encompasses a background of the
study, a problem statement, the objective and scope of study, the relevancy and
feasibility of study within the scope and time frame, the literature review, the outline
of the research methodology, and project activities with key milestones.
