Course Objectives		1. To acquaint the students with the concepts, equations, analysis methods and tools used in reservoir engineering 2. Develop students’ ability to apply a quantitative reasoning to reservoir engineering problems, 3. Develop students’ ability to apply an integrated knowledge of math, physics, geosciences and engineering sciences to the solution of reservoir engineering problems, 4. Provide students with a background for more advanced courses in reservoir engineering.
Course Description		The course provides the students with the basic principles, concepts and equations used in reservoir engineering to solve fluid flow problems in reservoir/well systems and to predict future reservoir/well performances. Basic equations to study the effects of heterogeneity, anisotropy and well completions on well/reservoir performance are derived. An introduction to oil-water two phase flow is also provided.
Course Outcomes		Students who pass the course will be able to: I. Gain the ability to develop mathematical models representing flow of single phase fluids in porous media, II. Gain knowledge regarding the reservoir engineering practices in the literature, III. To understand the effects of rock and fluid properties on the flow of fluids in porous media, IV. To be able to solve the diffusion equation for various conditions. V. Be able to model oil-water two phase flow
