This fundamental course provides students with a comprehensive understanding of the principles, concepts, and techniques used to quantify subsurface reservoirs. It will cover basic concepts of origin, accumulation and recovery of hydrocarbon fluids, reservoir description, recovery mechanisms, porous media properties and core analysis procedures, volumetric methods, hydrostatics, PVT behaviour and fluid properties, material balance equations for different subsurface reservoirs, fluid flow in porous media for linear and radial systems, steady-state, pseudo-steady-state and unsteady flows, wellbore productivity, wellbore damage and skin factor.
