describes the pressure behavior in an oil or gas
reservoir. Finite-difference techniques, variational,
and finite-element methods can be used to obtain a
numerical solution to Eq.1 as no analytical
solutions are known for the conditions that
adequately describe a reservoir. Only if a cell or
element happens to contain a well is a rough
estimate of the local k and
value known.. Several
times throughout the entire life of the reservoir the
static reservoir pressure may be measured at the
wells.
However, k and
are only point measurements
when compared to the over-all reservoir size.
Therefor, calculated and observed pressure
behavior will rarely agree if those k and
values
are used in the computation of Eq. 1. Usually they
must be adjusted to yield a match between the two
pressure behaviors. Only then reliable predictions
can be made concerning the future reservoir
behavior.
In the past, the reservoir was more or less
arbitrarily divided into a certain number of regions.
