gas injection into heavy oil reservoirs could result in high ultimate recovery of oil. experimental studies showed that an application of a combined technology of gas assisted gravity drainage (gagd) and vapor extraction (vapex) could increase final oil recovery of a candidate viscous oil reservoir. in this paper the results of laboratory investigation are presented, including pressure-volume-t...

reservoir dams are among the main storage systems employed in agriculture for the several past decades. proper operation of these reservoirs is important for irrigation espe-cially in such arid and semi-arid areas like iran, and particularly during dry years. a computational framework for reservoir simulation and flood routing is hereby presented. a key aspect of the reservoir simulation is the...

many large oil and gas fields in the most productive world regions happen to be fractured. the exploration and development of these reservoirs is a true challenge for many operators. these difficulties are due to uncertainties in geological fracture properties such as aperture, length, connectivity and intensity distribution. to successfully address these challenges, it is paramount to improve ...

in this study, a one-dimensional model called dyresm was used to simulate the thermal structure and artificial destratification of 15-khordad reservoir over a period of one year. the simulation showed that the reservoir is warm monomictic and is stratified during 210 days of the simulation year. the model reproduced the temperature of the meta- and hypolimnion very close to the observed data, b...

sediment flushing of reservoirs is an operational technique, whereby previously accumulated sediments in the reservoirs are hydraulically removed by accelerated flow when the bottom desiltingoutlets of the dam are opened. in this research, the process of sediment flushing is simulated by a three dimensional numerical model in which sediment and flow interaction are reflected in the reservoirs. ...
