High-Resolution Flow Simulation Data for Heterogeneous Porous Media

A project by the British Geological Survey aims to generate high-resolution, accurate flow and transport simulation datasets for numerous geological realizations. These datasets will test upscaling methods from physical sciences literature and identify improved scaling laws for strongly heterogeneous systems. The work focuses on quantifying transport scaling in structures with high variance and strong textures observed in actual geological systems.

Use Cases

• Test upscaling approaches from physical sciences literature using high-resolution flow simulation data for heterogeneous geological realizations.
• Investigate the loss and retention of information by scaling methods over large space and long time scale ranges in simulated transport data.
• Define the dependence between large-scale migration behavior and the underlying geological model using highly accurate flow and transport datasets.
• Identify improving upscaling laws for strongly heterogeneous flow fields where existing laws are inadequate using simulation data from alternative geological simulators.

Strengths

• Data is described as high-resolution and highly accurate for flow and transport simulation.
• Simulations are based on a large number of geological realizations possessing high variance and strong textures.
• Project is conducted by the authoritative British Geological Survey (BGS).

Limitations

• No actual dataset, sample data, or column information is provided; only project details are available.
• The description is forward-looking ('The project will develop'), indicating data may not yet exist or be accessible.
• Key specifics like row count, file formats, and data structure are unknown.
