Modelling of Shale, Tight Oil and Gas Reservoirs

Course Overview and Content

Learn how to applyย GEMโ€™s advanced functionality to model shale and/or tight oil and gas. Identify and model different hydraulic fracture methods, including:

  • Planar fracture
  • Complex fracture networks
  • Creating fractures from microseismic data usingย Builder

This course will teach attendees how to effectively simulate an unconventional reservoir using GEM and successfully apply uncertainty analysis concepts and assisted history matching principles to the model.

Course Content

  • Input shale gas reservoir characteristics (e.g. adsorption and diffusion)
  • Model a dual permeability system with a natural fracture network
  • Model planar and complex hydraulic fractures
  • Incorporate microseismic data
  • Perform sensitivity analyses and history matches for a tight reservoir usingย CMOST
  • Hands-on experience usingย GEMย andย IMEXย for:
    • Shale gas
    • Tight oil
    • Tight gas-condensate
