Understanding Reservoir Fluid Flow Characteristics
Explore the fundamentals of reservoir fluid flow, including types of fluids, flow regimes, reservoir geometry, Darcy's Law, and steady-state flow. Learn about incompressible, slightly compressible, and compressible fluids, as well as different flow regimes like radial, linear, and spherical. Understand the number of flowing fluids in the reservoir and key reservoir characteristics for optimal oil and gas extraction.
