Title
Consolidation of Python-based application(s) developed for Reservoir Engineering problems.
Intern profile
Final year student enrolled in a master’s degree program with geosciences and reservoir engineering skills along with a strong taste for Python programming. Fast learner and eagerness to understand and solve technical challenges. A good understanding and intuition to represent physical phenomena is needed.
Objectives
To ease routine analysis tasks related to its reservoir engineering studies for petroleum systems, Beicip-Franlab has developed several applications in Python or R programming languages, each dedicated to separate tasks (specific visualizations, analytical computations …).
One of these applications implements the ‘Capacitance Resistance Model’ (CRM) approach, which corresponds to an analytical model aiming at predicting the fluid production rates of a well to the injection rates of neighbouring injectors. Such model therefore captures ‘mathematically’ the relationship between wells which can subsequently be supported (or contradicted) by the understanding of the geological setting of the studied reservoir.
The first objective of this internship is to consolidate the existing work by:
As a secondary objective, the candidate will identify other analytical tools existing in Beicip-Franlab technical servers and evaluate their usefulness to address common reservoir engineering challenges. Depending on the overall progress of the internship, the most relevant tools identified could be re-coded in Python, in order to obtain a more robust version of the tool and facilitate its sharing to the rest of the reservoir engineering team.
Main tasks undertaken during internship
The internship will be supervised by a senior reservoir engineer.
