Computer Modeling
The reservoir model
Fluid flow Equation within the reservoir
The reservoir is modeled by subdividing the reservoir
volume into an array, or grid, of smaller volume
elements, which called: gridblock, cell, or node.
The well model
Fluid flow that represents the extraction of fluids from
the reservoir or the injection of fluids into the reservoir
The well bore mode
Fluid flow from the sand face to the surface
The surface model
constraints associated with surface facilities, such
as platform and separator limitations

Reservoir Discritization
Defination: the reservoir is described by a set of gridblocks (or
gridpoints) whose properties, dimensions, boundaries, and locations in the
reservoir are well defined.

Reservoir Simulator
Pressure
Saturation
Newton-Raphson (IMPLICIT)
all primary variables are calculated at the same time.
IMplicit Pressure Explicit Saturation (IMPES)
The IMPES procedure solves for pressure at the new time level using
saturations at the old time level, and then uses the pressures at the
new time level to explicitly calculate saturations at the new time level
