Streamline methods have received renewed interest over the past decade as an attractive alternative to traditional finite-difference (FD) simulation. They have been applied successfully to a wide range of problems including production optimization, history matching, and upscaling. Streamline methods are also being extended to provide an efficient and accurate tool for compositional reservoir si...

We consider an unsteady convection diffusion equation which models the transport of a dissolved species in two-phase incompressible flow problems. The so-called Henry interface condition leads to a jump condition for the concentration at the interface between the two phases. In [A. Hansbo, P. Hansbo, Comput. Methods Appl. Mech. Engrg. 191 (20002)], for the purely elliptic stationary case, exten...

We introduce a fibre tract segmentation algorithm based on the geometric coherence of fibre orientations as indicated by a streamline flow model. The inference of local flow approximations motivates a pairwise consistency measure between fibre ODF maxima. We use this measure in a recursive algorithm to cluster consistent ODF maxima, leading to the segmentation of white matter pathways. The meth...

23 Although reservoir flow simulation is a mature technology, there is a general lack of understanding in the oil and gas industry as to when it should be applied, the limitations of it and how recent technical improvements have changed simulation. Streamline models have dramatically changed simulation work and made predictions better. Simple workflow and quality control issues are absolutely c...
