Abstract

The numericalSchneider, Martinsimulation ofGläser, Dennissubsurface processesHelmig, Rainerrequires efficientFlemisch, Berndand robust methods due to the large scales and the complex geometries involved. In this article, a nonlinear finite-volume scheme is presented and applied to non-isothermal two-phase two-component flow in porous media. The idea of the scheme and the model used for the simulations are outlined and a comparison to a standard scheme used in industrial codes is made. Large-scale offshore CO\$\$\_2\$\$storage in the Johansen formation serves as a benchmark problem, where it is demonstrated that the new scheme can handle highly complex corner-point grids and reproduces the physical processes with a higher accuracy than the standard discretization scheme.
