  • Publication number: 20130144583
    Abstract: A hyper-dimensional simulator performs petroleum reservoir engineering and geosciences in a spatial volume operating environment. The entire spatial volume is ‘active’ for reservoir and geosciences applications. Although points in 3-D space are available for reservoir engineering and geosciences functions, it is conceptually easier to work with virtual, that is hyper dimensional surfaces and media. Limitations of single channel input using the mouse and/or keyboard imposed by prior art methods.

  • Patent number: 7809537
    Abstract: A computer-implemented process simulates production of oil and gas from hydrocarbon reservoirs. The process is used to help forecast the optimal future oil and gas recovery from large hydrocarbon reservoirs. At the same, this process is flexible to allow for further addition of new options; robust and reliable; and easy to use. The process is also comprehensive in that it allows a forecast of future performance of a wide range of reservoirs and future operation scenarios. By using the high-resolution models provided, a reservoir can be described much more accurately.
