Description:
This session will focus on the use of advanced multiphase flow simulations that can offer unique insight into the complex processes involved in the energy recovery processes under subsurface conditions such as enhanced oil recovery, fracking processes. Such insight can be used to conceive, design, and implement new generations of recovery strategies for achieving order of magnitude improvement in energy recovery efficiencies, saving significant amount of energy consumed in these operations. The goals of this sessions are to review the current state of the art and bring together practitioners from industries, developers of such advanced simulation tools, as well researchers from Universities and government laboratories to assess the current status, share common experiences on strengths and weaknesses of such tools.
