Unreferenced date November 2009 In the oil and gas industry, reservoir modeling involves the construction of a computer model of a petroleum reservoir , for the purposes of improving estimation of oil reserves reserves and making decisions regarding the development of the field. A reservoir model represents the physical space of the reservoir by an array of discrete cells, delineated by a grid which may be regular or irregular. The array of cells is usually three dimensional, although 1D and 2D models are sometimes used. Values for attributes such as porosity , Permeability earth sciences permeability and water saturation are associated with each cell. The value of each attribute is implicitly deemed to apply uniformly throughout the volume of the reservoir represented by the cell. Types of reservoir model Reservoir models typically fall into two categories Geologic modelling Geological models are created by geologist s and geophysicist s and aim to provide a static description of the reservoir, prior to production. Reservoir simulation models are created by reservoirengineeringreservoir engineers and use finite difference methods to simulate the flow of fluids within the reservoir, over its production lifetime. Sometimes a single shared earth model is used for both purposes.

Little and Great Whernside are the two summits on the ridge to the north and to the west of Angram Reservoir. They reach heights of 605 and 704 metres above sea level. Angram and Scar House were built to supply water to the Bradford area of West Yorkshire . Water from here is transferred to Chellow Heights via the Nidd Aqueduct , which is a major engineering achievement as it doesn t involve any pumping.

It is considered to be a constant temperature source. The temperature of the reservoir does not change irrespective of whether heat is added or extracted to or from it. A reservoir is that part of the environment systems environment which can exchange heat with a thermodynamic system system . It has sufficiently large heat capacity that its temperature is not affected by the quantity of heat transferred to or from it. A reservoir is thus characterized by a quasi constant temperature. The changes that do take place in the thermal reservoir as heat enters or leaves are so slow and so small that processes within it are quasistatic process quasi static . A reservoir which is at higher temperature and supplies heat is known as heat source . A reservoir at a lower temperature is known as a sink . Under certain conditions including low rates of heat transfer and localised systems the atmosphere may be regarded as a heat bath.
