The Application of Adaptive Mesh Methods to Petroleum Reservoir Simulation Application des méthodes de maillages évolutifs à la simulation de réservoirs pétroliers

This paper describes the application of adaptive mesh methods to the numerical simulation of one and two-dimensional petroleum reservoir waterfloods. The method uses current information on the solution to adapt the mesh to the solution as the computation proceeds. It is shown that this leads to sign...
