Abstract

Reservoir description needs to transform its geological model to a simulation model by means of dividing grids. Grid upscaling can reduce the number of geologic model’s grids, at the same time it can match the real geosphere. For further to see the impact characteristics of grid upscaling on the results of numerical simulation, this paper study it through four respects: the method of grid upscaling, the degree of grid upscaling, the distribution regularity of plane formation parameters and longitudinal formation characteristics. By changing the grid upscaling method, single grid step, the formation plane permeability differential and the geological model of differential between the layers. Finally, we get the systemic research conclusions of grid upscaling on the numerical simulation of oil reservoir.
