  2. Reservoir simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reservoir_simulation

    Reservoir simulation is an area of reservoir engineering in which computer models are used to predict the flow of fluids (typically, oil, water, and gas) through porous media. The creation of models of oil fields and the implementation of calculations of field development on their basis is one of the main areas of activity of engineers and oil ...

  3. Reservoir modeling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reservoir_modeling

    Reservoir simulation models are created by reservoir engineers and use finite difference methods to simulate the flow of fluids within the reservoir, over its production lifetime. Sometimes a single "shared earth model" is used for both purposes. More commonly, a geological model is constructed at a relatively high (fine) resolution.

  4. U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Bay Model - Wikipedia

    The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Bay Model is a working hydraulic scale model of the San Francisco Bay and Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta System. While the Bay Model is still operational, it is no longer used for scientific research but is instead open to the public alongside educational exhibits about Bay hydrology.

    SPE's technical library (OnePetro) contains more than 314,000 technical papers—products of SPE conferences and periodicals, made available to the entire industry. SPE has offices in Dallas, Houston, Calgary, Dubai and Kuala Lumpur. SPE is a professional association for more than 127,000 [7] engineers, scientists, managers, and educators ...

  6. Geologic modelling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geologic_modelling

    The thin red circular contour line in the middle of the map indicates the top of the oil reservoir. Because gas floats above oil, the thin red contour line marks the gas/oil contact zone. Geologic modelling, geological modelling or geomodelling is the applied science of creating computerized representations of portions of the Earth's crust ...

    Water is diverted from the Rubicon River to a storage reservoir, Loon Lake, from which it is released through the Loon Lake Powerhouse to Gerle Creek.This water is intercepted and diverted into Silver Creek, a tributary of the South Fork American River, flowing through the Robbs Peak Powerhouse into Union Valley Reservoir, the project's principal reservoir.
