In this paper we align business with IT in a networked setting while introducing innovative e-customs procedures worldwide. We perform the alignment process in a multi-perspective way, guided by concerns of upscaling. As we show in this paper, using an industry-strength case study, effects of upscaling have often impacts on business, like the increase of the number of service consumers, or the ...

Spontaneous imbibition has been receiving much attention due to its significance in many subsurface and industrial applications. Unveiling pore-scale wetting dynamics, particularly upscaling the Darcy scale are still unresolved. In this work, we conduct image-based pore-network modeling of cocurrent spontaneous corresponding quasi-static imbibition, homogeneous sintered glass beads as well hete...

The micropore structure’s permeability contribution to total of the heterogeneous reservoir with multiscale pore structures is critical for evaluation but still not well understood. This paper proposes a structure characterization method based on high-resolution SEM images quantitatively analyse structures’ content and their contributions via six steps. First, image-based rock typing implemente...

reservoir permeability is a critical parameter for characterization of the hydrocarbon reservoirs. in fact, determination of permeability is a crucial task in reserve estimation, production and development. traditional methods for permeability prediction are well log and core data analysis which are very expensive and time-consuming. well log data is an alternative approach for prediction of pe...

Subsurface formations that arise in the simulation of gas-injection processes for enhanced oil recovery may exhibit geometrically complex features with complicated large-scale connectivity. They must be included in simulations of flow and transport because they can fundamentally impact simulation results. However, to reduce computational costs, simulations are generally performed on grids that ...

Non-Newtonian fluids may cause nonlinear seepage even for a single-phase flow. Through digital rock technologies, the upscaling of this non-Darcy flow can be studied; however, requirements scanning resolution and sample size need to clarified very carefully. This work focuses on Bingham fluid in tight porous media by pore-scale simulation CT-scanned microstructures sandstones. A bi-viscous mode...

We present a multiscale Bayesian method to reconstruct the permeability field of a binary medium. The reconstruction is conditioned on measurements of permeability and tracer test breakthrough times, observed at a limited set of locations. The medium consists of a spatially variable distribution of inclusions, which are too small to be individually resolved at the grid scale. The unknown inclus...
