petrel or eclipse!!!

hi all
i have a little question!
which software deals with reservoir simulation petrel or eclipse or what is the different between them?

thanks in advance.

Petrel make Static model (depend on geological and geophysical interpretation and make static model
but
Eclips make dynamic model depend on the final static model and added on it some fluid dynamic properties such like (mobility, permeability, daily production, cummulative production, recovery data, fluid type + .................... etc)
to make dynamic model simulation for reservoir
thanks

aha , but ppl who use petrel doesnt need to learn eclipse or vise versa

May I ask you a question?
What is happened if we run Eclipse (dynamic model) without static model?

Thank you,

aha. but in both cases,do i just have to learn how to use the software or i must know some concepts beside learning the software ?!

thanks

You cannot run a simulation run without static model

HQMAN
I THINK HQMAN IT IS NOT QUESTION TO ASK ME ?
HOW DO YOU CAN MAKE DYNAMIC MODEL WITHOUT STATIC MODEL

AZoro · Post by **AZoro** » Mon May 26, 2008 10:35 pm

he isn't asking you..he is making a 'question note' to make me realize that we cant make dynamic model without static model

now,do i just have to learn how to use the software or i must know some concepts beside learning the software ?!

i know am asking a lot, but am willing to learn as much as i can ,u know when you are thirsty and u find a river,u will never stop drinking from it
and since i cant find sum1 in my department at collage that know much about modeling so i have no1 to ask but u guys and am really thankful for that

i have added u Mr.Wael on mail but u didn't log in since i added u
anyho,thanks guys for helping me

You are welcome AZoro, you have to learn how to build a static model first and then try to run the simulation
it is really fantastic

yeah,Modeling is a promising technique for petroleum exploration, i guess such models help companies to predict the fluid location and more and more stuff,am glad i knew about it and am still a student so when i graduate it will be agood thing in my CV ,besides i really started to love the idea it self as am much of a computer guy am using PC since i was 10 years old

so i think i will be really good in this job(isa),

it would be great if sum1 give me his msn messenger so we can chat for awhile

thx fanarco for such a great forum,u really did a good job here

[quote="FANARCO"]You cannot run a simulation run without static model[/quote]

Using 3D seismic, logs, and core data we can make a structure mode and petrophysics model (static model!) and then this model will be export to Eclipse and run dynamic model.

But... in both model we need porosity and permeability from logs, core and well test,...

We have a question here:

What is difference distribution of 3D (K and Phi) model between dynamic and static?

I am also a student so don't have some experiences in reservoir simulation.
Some one can help me to explain more detail.

Thank you so much.

The static model simply is a structural model (anticline or faulted blocks or ........ etc) this struture model is divided into cells for simulation purpose. The number of cells / dimensions depends on the data that you have, the no. of wells and required accuracy.
Be note that if the no. of cells is high the simulation run time will be high and vise versa
In static model also (Could be built by Petrel or Petra or Geoframe or RMS .........etc) you have to fill each cell with its properties.
There are an essential properties like Porosity,NTG, saturations. permeability
and there are optional properties like thermal properties of the rock and fluid .... etc

I hope these poor explanation is enugh for you guys

Good Fanarco.
you are intelligent Reservoir engineer and Reservoir geologist
You are success man in petroleum industry
Thanks

the good news is,i have 1 year until my graduation ,i guess i got alot of time to learn about them ,i just need sum1 to put me on the begining of the road

thanks

Thank Administrator FANARCO so much for your helps me more understand about reservoir simulation.

So we need both softwares (Petrel and Eclipse) if we would like to run simulation modeling?
