Abstract
This paper proposes building realistic synthetic models of carbonate reservoirs typical of those frequently occurring in the Middle East, particularly in the State of Qatar. Based on published data, these models represent the Upper Jurassic Arab C and D reservoirs which are among the most abundant and economically important. They are well studied and most of the reservoir data is available in literature. In these models, the rock and fluid properties are based on actual fields. Developing and upgrading these models with partners and sponsors will lead to advanced reservoir engineering workflows for enhancing oil recovery, screening and benchmarking various innovative scenarios of field development and uncertainty assessment. This stimulates effective collaboration, knowledge and expertise sharing and establishes better practices in carbonate reservoir engineering.
