Review text

In this paper, the solution of three-dimensional, multiphase flow problems on static, composite grids is discussed. The composite grid consists of a global, rectangular course grid and a set of locally refined patches around active wells or other areas with important local flow properties. Pressure calculations in a single-phase flow problem with a distribution of injection and production wells exhibit excellent agreement between numerical calculations on locally radial grids and analytical solutions. Water and gas coning results for a single well also show very good agreement between computations on a hybrid grid and a circular cylindrical grid, this indicates the potential for incorporating local coning models around any well in a full field-scale application without destroying the efficiency of the original simulator. Multiphase, multiwell problems are also presented. Finally, local time-stepping applications are discussed.
