Multiscale methods for solving strongly heterogenous systems in reservoirs have a long history from the early ideas used on incompressible flow to the newly released version in commercial simulation. Much effort has been put into making the MsFV method work for fully unstructured multiphase problems...

Optimizing placement and trajectory of wells is a computationally demanding, and hence time-consuming task due to the high number of simulations typically required to achieve a local optimum. In this work, we combine three remedies for speeding up the workflow; firstly, we employ a flow-diagnostics...

Thermal energy from medium to high-enthalpy aquifers is an appealing energy resource: it is renewable, always on, and, at least in principle, available anywhere on the planet. Moreover, and perhaps equally important, aquifers are excellent candidates for flexible large-scale energy storage. This is...

We discuss how to introduce local time-step refinements in a sequential implicit method for multiphase flow in porous media. Our approach relies heavily on causality-based optimal ordering, which implies that cells can be ordered according to total fluxes after the pressure field has been computed...
