METHODS FOR OPTIMIZING PETROLEUM RESERVOIR ANALYSIS

Described herein are methods for optimizing petroleum reservoir analysis and sampling using a real-time component wherein heterogeneities in fluid properties exist. The methods can help predict the recovery performance of oil such as, for example, heavy oil, which can be adversely impacted by fluid...

More Information
Summary:Described herein are methods for optimizing petroleum reservoir analysis and sampling using a real-time component wherein heterogeneities in fluid properties exist. The methods can help predict the recovery performance of oil such as, for example, heavy oil, which can be adversely impacted by fluid property gradients present in the reservoir.
