  • Method for simulating fluid flows, a computer program and a computer readable medium
    Patent number: 10119374
    Abstract: A method for simulating fluid flows in a petroleum reservoir to improve final oil recovery. The fluid comprises water, hydrocarbon, and surfactant components. The method comprises a flash step for calculating compositions via two stages. A first stage comprises a first flash to determine first compositions of the water, oil and gas phases and is performed by omitting the surfactant component in the fluid. A second stage comprises a second flash to determine a microemulsion composition of the microemulsion phase.
    Type: Grant

  • METHOD FOR SIMULATING FLUID FLOWS, A COMPUTER PROGRAM AND A COMPUTER READABLE MEDIUM
    Publication number: 20150073762
    Abstract: A method for simulating fluid flows in a petroleum reservoir, in which the fluid is split in physical phases comprising a gas phase, an oil phase, a water phase and a microemulsion phase. The fluid comprises water, hydrocarbon, and surfactant components. The method comprises a flash step for calculating compositions via two stages. A first stage comprises a first flash to determine first compositions of the water, oil and gas phases and is performed by omitting the surfactant component in the fluid. A second stage comprises a second flash to determine a microemulsion composition of the microemulsion phase.
