Summer Research Workshop 2011
Towards a Full Integration from Geosciences to Reservoir Simulation
The multi-disciplinary integration of geosciences has made a lot of progress in the last decade, but this progress is often limited. This workshop, taking place in Trieste, Italy, 1-2 September 2011, aims to define the state of the art in this integration process. Papers will include topics of reservoir simulation of different scenarios based on different data availability as a validation tool and feedback for further tuning.
