  • Patent number: 10883339
    Abstract: A hydrocarbon reservoir model simulation is executed to distribute gas among available gas injectors associated with a hydrocarbon reservoir. Using the result of the executed hydrocarbon reservoir simulation, streamline tracing is executed to calculate hydrocarbon flow fields. Using the results of the executed hydrocarbon reservoir simulation and the executed streamline tracing, a reservoir pressure equalization (RPE) algorithm is executed to distribute an amount of gas according to an injection strategy to satisfy an assigned voidage replace ratio (VRR) for each region of the hydrocarbon reservoir. Post-processing of the results of the RPE algorithm is performed. Using the result of the post-processing, gas injection in the hydrocarbon reservoir is performed with the available gas injectors.
