Hydrostatic equilibrium between two connected oil reservoirs

Post by soman703 »

Hello everyone. During simulation how do we obtain hydrostatic equilibrium between two undersaturated oil reservoir connected by an acquifier and having different oil water contacts?

Can it be done by giving same datum depth but different initial pressures?

You assign the same datum depth and different initial reservoir pressure. The model will not fly in initialization.

You can assign you datum to any point in the aquifer and should be deeper than both oil water contacts.
