Tutorial E300: GRID Section
Defines the geometry of the simulation
grid and the various rock properties:
geometry
– size and location of each grid block
rock properties
– porosity and absolute permeability
Tutorial E300: GRID Section

Starts with GRID keyword

Model will use block centred geometry
Data for each grid block can be
specified in either of two ways:
1 Defining values for each cell, one at
a time
2 Defining a value for a box which
contains a group of cells
Tutorial E300: SECTION GRID
Example:
INIT (create an .INIT file)
DXV (specify grid block dimensions in
the x direction)
20*200 /
DYV (specify grid block dimensions in
the y direction)
1*1000 /
Tutorial E300: SECTION GRID
Specify cell thicknesses ( DZ ), horiz.
permeabilities ( PERMX ), porosities ( PORO )
for each layer of the grid and also cell top
depths ( TOPS )
Tutorial E300: SECTION GRID

RPTGRID (The keyword should be followed by

a string of mnemonics to request output of grid
data to the print file)
DX DY DZ PERMX PERMY PERMZ PORO NTG TOPS MIDS /
Tutorial E300: PROPS Section
Starts with PROPS keyword
For a compositional, only the water density
(DENSITY)
Include relative permeability and capillary pressure
tables
– INCLUDE
– 'RELPFLD.DAT‘ / (create an .data file)
Oil PVT properties (Equation of state)
– INCLUDE
– 'PVT1.PVO' / (create an .PVO file)
Tutorial E300: PROPS Section
Water PVT functions PVTW
– reference pressure (Pref) : 3350psia
– water FVF @ ref. pressure, Bw(Pref) :
1.00528 RB/STB
– water compressibility : 5x10-6
– water viscosity @ ref. pressure μw (Pref) :
0.55730 cp

Rock compressibility (ROCK)
Tutorial E300: PROPS Section
 Tutorial E300: SOLUTION
Section
Initial reservoir conditions are set by one of:
1 EQUILIBRATION - Define pressure at
datum depth to allow internal pressure vs.
depth tables to be calculated.
2 RESTART - Load pressures and
saturations for each grid cell from a
previous run.
3 ENUMERATION - Specify pressures and
saturations for each cell explicitly.
Tutorial E300: SOLUTION
Section
Starts with SOLUTION keyword

Use Equilibration data (EQUIL)

– pressure at datum depth
– WOC
– GOC
Tutorial E300: SOLUTION
Section
Introduces a field separator, used to
define separator oil and gas in place.
FIELDSEP
– The stage index.
– The field separator stage temperature.
– The field separator stage pressure.
Tutorial E300: SOLUTION
Section
Tutorial E300: SCHEDULE
Section
Drives the simulator by defining:
Well locations and completions
Production and injection rates and
pressures
Time steps
– for calculations
– for reports
Tutorial E300: SCHEDULE
Section
Starts with SCHEDULE keyword
WELSPECS and COMPDAT to specify
– Vertical oil & gas production well
(.prod)
– Vertical water injection well (.inj)
Tutorial E300: SCHEDULE
Section
WCONPROD – P1
– produce 3000 Mscf/day of oil
– minimum BHP limit of 500 psia
WCONPROD – P2
– produce 3000 Mscf/day of oil
