METHOD FOR DETERMINING THE GEOMETRY OF AN AREA OF A RESERVOIR

摘要

The application discloses a method for determining a geometry of an investigated area of a reservoir, wherein a volume of the investigated area is known, the method comprising: receiving a geological model of the soil in which said area is located, the geological model comprising a plurality of adjacent cells each having respective spatial coordinates and respective permeability values, and two wells being simulated in said geological model, determining a preferred flowing path between the two wells, the preferred flowing path being formed by a series of adjacent cells of the model, and determined based on the respective permeability values of the cells, evaluating a volume of the preferred flowing path and, if the volume of the preferred flowing path is lower than the volume of the investigated area, updating the preferred flowing path until its volume is superior or equal to the volume of the investigated area.
