Advanced Modelling with the MATLAB Reservoir Simulation Toolbox

Advanced Modelling with the MATLAB Reservoir Simulation Toolbox introduces more advanced functionality that has been recently added to the open-source MRST software. It is a self-contained introduction to a variety of modern numerical methods for simulating multiphase flow in porous media, with applications to geothermal energy, chemical enhanced oil recovery (EOR), flow in fractured and unconventional reservoirs, and in the unsaturated zone. The reader will learn how to implement new models and algorithms in a robust, efficient manner. A large number of numerical examples are included, all fully equipped with code and data so that the reader can reproduce the results and use them as a starting point for their own work. Like the original textbook, this book will prove invaluable for researchers, professionals and advanced students using reservoir simulation methods.

Features

• The original MRST textbook was very well received, and there have been many requests for this follow-up book covering more advanced methods
• MRST is a very popular community code and has expanded its functionality over recent years. This book will provide an up-to-date account of the most recent functionality that will prove very useful for students and researchers
• Acts as a user guide to advanced features of the widely used open-source MRST code: providing the details a reader needs to use these methods in their own work.

MATLAB is used throughout the book.
