1. Comparison of an impec and a semi-implicit formulation for compositional reservoir simulation
In compositional reservoir simulation, a set of non-linear partial differential equations must be solved. In this work, two numerical formulations are compared. The first formulation is based on an implicit pressure and explicit composition (IMPEC) procedure, and the second formulation uses an implicit pressure and implicit saturation (IMPSAT). The main goal

2. In-Situ combustion : insights on field project and numerical simulation at laboratory and field scale / Combustão In-Situ : considerações sobre projeto e simulações numéricas em escala de laboratório e de campo
Behavior forecast of reservoirs subjected to in-situ combustion is hard and empirical since besides geological complexities it is necessary to reproduce complex fluid models and several chemical reactions that are part of the process. The work flow for field project usually involves: 1) reservoir screening; 2) thermo-analytical experiments; 3) combustion tub

3. Estudo da segregação gravitacional do processo de injeção de vapor em reservátórios heterogêneos
Due to reservoirs complexity and significantly large reserves, heavy oil recovery has become one of the major oil industry challenges. Thus, thermal methods have been widely used as a strategic method to improve heavy oil recovery. These methods improve oil displacement through viscosity reduction, enabling oil production in fields which are not considered c

4. Comparação de métodos de otimização para o problema de ajuste de histórico em ambientes paralelos
The process of history matching aims on the determination of the models parameters from a petroleum reservoir. Once adjusted, the models can be used for the prediction of the reservoir behavior. This work presents a comparsion of dierent optimization methods for this problem s solution. Derivative based methods are compared to a genetic algorithm. In particu

5. Simulação numérica do escoamento bifásico em meios porosos heterogêneos empregando uma formulação semi-implícita, imitadores de fluxo e o método dos volumes finitos / Numerical simulation of two-phase flow in heterogeneous porous media applying a semi-implicit formulation, flux limiter and finite volume method
A new numerical method is proposed for the solution of two-phase flow problem in petroleum reservoirs. The two-phase (water and oil) flow problem is governed by a pressure-velocity equation coupled to a saturation equation. For computational eficiency an operator spliting technique is used; distinct time steps can be used for the computation of transport and

6. Experimental infections with Paracoccidioides brasiliensis obtained from armadillos: comparison to clinical isolates
Paracoccidioides brasiliensis causes paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM) that is one of the most prevalent systemic human mycoses in Latin America. Armadillos show a high incidence of PCM infection and could, therefore, be a natural reservoir for this fungus. In this study were compared the virulence profiles of isolates obtained from nine-banded armadillos (Dasypu

7. MODELAGEM SÍSMICA EM ARENITOS: EFEITO DA DISPERSÃO DA VELOCIDADE E DO TIPO DE FLUIDO / SANDSTONE SEISMIC MODELING: EFFECTS OF VELOCITY DISPERSION AND FLUID TYPE
The evaluation of reservoir dynamics during production through time-lapse interpretation has reached a substantial importance in the petroleum industry, mainly in sandstones. This evaluation presents many challenges, mainly concerned to unmask the overlapping of different effects in seismic data due to reservoir changes. Several factors affect seismic proper

8. Computational modeling of two and three-phase flow in heterogeneous petroleum reservoirs / Modelagem computacional de escoamentos com duas e três fases em reservatórios petrolíferos heterogêneos
Considera-se neste trabalho um modelo matemático para escoamentos com duas e três fases em reservatórios petrolíferos e a modelagem computacional do sistema de equações governantes para a sua solução numérica. Os fluidos são imiscíveis e incompressíveis e as heterogeneidades da rocha reservatório são modeladas estocasticamente. Além disso, é

9. Uso de poços inteligentes em desenvolvimento de campos de petroleo sob incertezas / Use of smart wells in petroleum field developments under uncertainties
The selection of a production strategy is one of the most important tasks to ensure success of petroleum fields development. In order to improve the performance of fields, the use of smart wells is becoming a common practice. In such wells, devices like valves and sensors are able to monitor and control the production in real time, adding flexibility to the

10. SISTEMA INTELIGENTE DE OTIMIZAÇÃO DE ALTERNATIVAS DE DESENVOLVIMENTO DE CAMPOS PETROLÍFEROS / INTELLIGENT SYSTEM FOR OPTIMIZATION OF ALTERNATIVES FOR PETROLEUM FIELDS DEVELOPMENT
This work investigates the problem of optimization of alternatives for petroleum fields` development. A development alternative refers to the way a well-known and delimited petroleum field is placed in production. This process involves the determination of the number, localization and scheduling of producer and injector wells. Thus, the optimization of alter

In this work the decomposition aspects of the Staurastrum iversenii Nygaard var. americanum phytoplankton species, isolated from the Barra Bonita Reservoir (22 degrees 29 minutes S e 48 degrees 34 minutes W), were approached; as resource of the decomposition were used: cells (ruptured and whole) and polysaccharide of higher and lower molecular masses. Were a

12. Analise do comportamento de reservatorios heterogeneos submetidos a injeção de agua
The present work studies the incompressible flow of two immiscible fluids (a wetting fluid displacing a non_wetting one) in heterogeneous reservoirs composed of a continuous fraction of high transmissibility surrounding a discontiÍmous fraction of low transmissibility. The mathematical formulation used to represent the incompressible flow in the heterogeneo
