Title of the talk: “Mathematical models of oil reservoir.”
Time: Thursday, 25 of March 2021, 15:00 - 16:00.
Abstract. This report is devoted to mathematical models of displacement of oil by some suspension in rocks during oil production. Mathematical models of the oil reservoir are very important from both theoretical and practical points of view. So far, one of the most popular such models is the Backley-Leverett model [1]. Probably, the next known model could be the Muskat problem [2]. Each of these models is a phenomenological mathematical model. That is, it describes the physical process at the macroscopic level, where the characteristic size of the domain under consideration is several meters. We discuss existing phenomenological models of oil reservoir and suggest new exact mathematical models based on ideas R. Barridge and J. Keller [3] and E. Sanchez-Palencia [4] (mathematical modelling) and G. Nguetseng [5] (homogenization). Finally, we illustrate our results with some numerical implementations for one-porosity geometries and compare obtained results for different mathematical models.
