Plug-in hybrid electric vehicle (PHEV) technology will provide substantial reduction in petroleum consumption as demonstrated in previous studies. Platform engineering steps including, reduced mass, improved engine efficiency, relaxed performance, improved aerodynamics and rolling resistance can impact both vehicle efficiency and design. Simulations have been completed to quantify the relative ...

When direct measurement of model parameters is not possible, these need to be inferred indirectly from calibration data. To solve this inverse problem, an algorithm that preferentially samples all regions of the parameter space that fit data well is needed. In this paper, we apply a real-parameter Genetic Algorithm (GA) to sample the parameter space for the inverse problem of calibrating a petr...

Panax Geothermal Limited is developing a geothermal resource in South Australia, the Limestone Coast Project, which is a conventional “hot aquifer” reservoir in a deep sedimentary basin. The initial development is the Pretty Hill Formation sandstones in the Penola Trough of the Otway Basin. The area is an exploited gas basin with modern 3D seismic and excellent existing petroleum well data cove...

Laboratory for Petroleum and Petrochemical Process Engineering was established as a part of the Petroleum and Petrochemical Department at the Faculty of Chemical engineering and Technology and it was officially opened on July 4, 2011, within the AMACIZ scientific colloquium. The Laboratory was founded with the goal of enabling the research and development of processes treating and refining petr...

Simultaneous capillary dominated displacement of the wetting and non-wetting phases are processes of interest in many disciplines including modeling of the penetration of polluting liquids in hydrology or the secondary migration in petroleum reservoir engineering. Percolation models and in particular invasion percolation is well suited to characterize the slow immiscible displaceme...

Permeability is the key parameter of the reservoir and has a significant impact on petroleum fields operations and reservoir management. In most reservoirs, permeability measurements are rare and therefore permeability must be measured in the laboratory from reservoir core samples or evaluated from well test data. However, core analysis and well test data are usually only available from a few w...
