PETE 1160 - PETROLEUM RESERVOIR ENGINRING Minimum Credits: 3 Maximum Credits: 3 This course covers the principles of reservoir engineering and material balance calculation in petroleum reservoirs. The topics include petroleum origin and oil occurrence and migration; oil , gas, and gas-condensate reservoirs; basic drilling of oil and gas wells; p-v-t behavior of natural gas; material balances in gas reservoirs; oil reservoirs under simultaneous dissolved gas drive, gas cap drive, and water drive; generalized material balance in petroleum reservoirs; basic equations for fluid flow in reservoirs, absolute, effective, and relative permeabilities; and a design project on reservoir calculations.
