Block successive overrelaxation (SOR) is used to solve the pressure equations of large 3-dimensional reservoir models with limited or zero permeability between layers. The equations for each block are solved simultaneously using sparse elimination techniques. The block technique shows two or three times better convergence than plane SOR. Two hypothetical test problems and three reservoir problems ae described. 8 refs.
