Ouchi Lab
Machine-translated · View original
A lab that uses computation to uncover underground flows that cannot be seen.
AboutAbout the lab
Uncovering the hidden flows underground.
The Ouchi Lab is built on reservoir engineering, which quantitatively evaluates fluid flow underground.
The lab studies how to efficiently produce conventional resources such as oil and natural gas, as well as unconventional resources such as shale gas and methane hydrate.
The lab is advancing the development of numerical simulators and "history matching" techniques, which estimate subsurface properties from observational data such as production history.
The lab also applies reservoir engineering to develop technologies for making effective use of underground space that contribute to reducing carbon dioxide.
Key terms
- Reservoir
- An underground rock layer that holds fluids such as oil and natural gas in its pore spaces.
- History matching
- A method of adjusting a model so that calculated results match actual production records, in order to estimate subsurface conditions.
- Unconventional resources
- Resources, such as shale gas and methane hydrate, that are difficult to extract with conventional methods.
