Streamlines: Applications to Reservoir Simulation, Characterization and Management
Streamline methods are now widely used to visualise reservoir flow, characterise reservoirs dynamically and manage floods. This course moves from introductory to advanced concepts and shows how streamlines add value alongside both finite-difference and streamline simulators. Theory is combined with practical applications and hands-on computer exercises.
