Massively parallel algorithms in reservoir simulation

Abstract

A two-phase, two-dimensional prototype of a massively parallel reservoir simulator based on domain decomposition has been developed. We have concentrated on methods with overlapping subdomains, also called Schwarz methods. The reservoir or domain is divided into small subdomains, and all subdomain problems can be solved in parallel. The methods have been validated on reservoir problems, and these tests show that reservoir simulation problems are well suited for parallel computing. 96 refs., 18 figs., 4 tabs.
