3. Click OK twice.
8. Click on the Specify Property button (top middle of screen) to open the General Property Specification
spreadsheet.
9. Select the box for layer 1 under the property column labeled Grid Top and type 4000 (meaning the top of
the reservoir is in the depth of 4000 feet).
10. Select the box for Whole Grid under the property column labeled Grid Thickness and type 20 (meaning all
11 rows in the Z-direction will be 20 feet in height).
11. Click OK to leave the General Property Specification section. The Calculate Property option will automatically
appear. So, press OK to populate the grid with top-of-structure, grid thickness and porosity data. Press OK to
any messages that appear.
12. Change the view from IJ-2D Areal to 3D View (in the upper left corner!!).
(from the toolbar) to rotate the display by holding down the left mouse
button and using the cursor to move the model. Hold down the Ctrl key with the left mouse button and move
the mouse toward the bottom of the screen to zoom in or move the mouse to the top of the screen to zoom out.

16. Select Permeability J and right click in the Whole Grid box. Select EQUALSI then OK.
17. Do the same with Permeability K and select EQUALSI. In the first box select * and then enter a value of
0.01 in the second field (this applies a Kv/Kh ratio of 0.01). Press the OK button.
18. Press OK to leave the General Property Specification section, and OK to calculate the newly specified
properties (as the option for calculating these properties will automatically appear).
19. Double click on Rock Compressibility in the tree view menu and input 1E-6 in the rock compressibility
box. Units will be applied automatically; you should now have the Green check mark for Reservoir section.
20. This would be a good point to save the data set you are working on. Click File then Save As. Save file as
Tutorial.dat.
2. Check on Launch dialog to create a quick BLACKOIL model using correlations then press the OK.
3. Enter 130 (deg F implied) in the Reservoir Temperature box. Generate Pressure data up to 5000 psi. For
Bubble Point Pressure, select the Value provided option and enter a value of 2500 psi. For the Oil Density
option, select Stock tank oil gravity (API) as the type of gravity value you want to use and enter a value of 35
in data entry window. Change the Gas Density box to display Gas Gravity (Air=1) and type 0.65 in the data
entry window.
4. In the Reference Pressure for Water properties box, enter a value of 3000 psi and leave the rest of the
options at their default values and Click OK.
5. Double click on PVT Region: 1 in the tree view and select the PVT Table tab to view the BLACKOIL PVT
data. For this example, the data shown in this table was generated using the information entered in the
Quick black oil model window. However, it is also possible to directly enter or edit values in the PVT
Table. These values can also be updated by using your mouse to select points on the plots associated with
the PVT Region, and dragging the points to the desired location. Please note that the IMEX PVT Regions
window has to be open while using your mouse to change the points on the plot.

4. Press Apply and then OK. Press OK again to get out of the Rock Types window. A graph containing the
relative permeability curves will appear.
5. The Rock Fluid section should have a green check mark. Save the file at this time.
5. Expand Wells (1) and Prod-1 and double click on 2010-01-01 PERF on the tree view.
9. Click on the top right block (21,1,11) so that the Well Completion Data looks like below:
12. Now go back to main Builder window and double click on Dates (1) on the tree view.
13. In the pop-up window, click on Add a range of dates: button on the right.
14. Enter date from 2010-1-1 to 2021-1-1 by clicking on the button next to each item.
15. Select 1 Month as time step and click on OK twice.

Now all tabs in the main Builder window should have a green checkmark in the tree view. This means the
model is ready.
2. Check on Run normal immediately and click on the Run / Submit button.
3. If there are no errors, the window will show you the progress of the run. When finished, a brief summary of
results will be displayed
7. Select the file to display data from as Tutorial.irf. Select curve parameter Cumulative Oil Rate SC.
Choose Well-1 for the Origin and then click OK.

8. Click on the
button.
9. In the tree view, right click on Plot 2 and select Add Property Vs. Distance.
10. Select Linear Path from UBA 21 1 11 to UBA 1 21 11.
11. Select Oil Saturation for property and 2021-01-01 for Time.
12. Click on Add Curve button and then OK.
Tasks
1. Plot average reservoir pressure vs. time.
2. Plot saturation change vs. time for a block 21 1 11.
3. Define Well-1 in layers 9 instead of layer 11 and compare cumulative oil produced with previous model.
4. Define a water injection well in the opposite corner of the model with a rate of 500 STB/day and compare
cumulative oil produced and average reservoir pressure.
5. Raise the injection rate to 2000 STB/day and repeat previous step for the results.
