Fluid & Porous Media Characterization & Dynamics
The aim of the course consists in giving the fundamental concepts necessary to characterize, to understand and to describe analytically and numerically the behavior of fluids in porous media and, in particular the dynamic behavior of hydrocarbon reservoirs. The course is divided in some main chapters such as: reservoir fluids PVT properties; rock properties; rock fluid interaction properties; diffusivity equations for slightly compressible and compressible fluids. The course has to be considered as introductory to most of the other course of the petroleum engineering program.
