👉 Reservoir engineering is a specialized field within petroleum engineering focused on the management and optimization of oil and gas reservoirs over their entire lifecycle, from exploration to production and eventual decommissioning. It involves understanding reservoir properties, fluid dynamics, and the interactions between fluids, rock, and wellbores to enhance recovery efficiency and prolong the economic life of reservoirs. Reservoir engineers use advanced modeling techniques, including numerical simulations, to predict reservoir behavior under various production scenarios, aiding in decision-making for well placement, completion design, and operational strategies. By integrating data from various sources such as seismic surveys, well logs, and production tests, reservoir engineers aim to maximize hydrocarbon recovery while minimizing costs and environmental impact.
