The long-term goal of this five-year Chair is to provide a reliable tool to explore and validate the best novel recovery processes that are both economically viable and environmentally sensitive and reduce water use and greenhouse gas emissions. This research is vital to the viability of the oil and gas industry, one of Canada's most important industrial sectors, which has been operating under low commodity prices for two years. The new processes to explore were identified by industry as requiring validation prior to field testing. Accurate reservoir models and efficient simulators developed in this program are the tools required to study and optimize oil recovery processes with successful prediction of reservoir behaviours and environmental impacts. Essential features of flow and transport processes in petroleum reservoirs will be reflected in new mathematical models. New numerical models can reliably generate solutions without false information. Accurate algorithms and computational codes will then be developed to support the greening of heavy oil and oil sands recovery processes and the renewal of a more sustainable oil and gas industry. This can only be achieved when each novel recovery process is carefully modelled and reliable simulations demonstrate the validity of the process.
