Upscaling, or homogenization, is substituting a heterogeneous property region consisting of fine [[Gridding in reservoir simulation|grid cells]] with an equivalent homogeneous region made up of a single coarse-grid cell with an effective property value. (Equivalent in this case means either volume or flux vice, depending on the type of property that is to be upscaled.)

New pages are continually added to PetroWiki. These new pages always need subject experts to help develop these pages into high quality resources. With so many different roles within PetroWiki that have to do with contributing there is undoubtedly a place that will fit perfectly with your expertise and time.

In July 2012, SPE held a two-day summit on human factors to create a common understanding of the strategic challenges for the oil and gas E&P industry, to identify what is known and unknown in the field, and to explore possible actions to accomplish the needed change indicated by the U.S. National Commission on the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill and Offshore Drilling report. Attendees created a technical report based on the discussions and conclusions at the summit as a guideline on the human factors risks in E&P operations and what can be done to reduce those risks and increase safety.

Suggested additions:

  • New and emerging concepts
  • Utilize your expertise to review, update, and enhance the quality of existing content
  • Adding links to good papers in OnePetro and elsewhere is a great way to enrich existing content pages.
  • Creation of pages about specific fields are welcome. Knowing the basics of the reservoir and how the field was developed over time can provide valuable information to others. (See Prudhoe_Bay_field and Kuparuk River field

Things to know:

Edit Toolbar:

  • The visual editor toolbar supports text formatting, such as bold, italics, and underlining.
  • Documents can also include page formatting options, such as numbered/bullet lists, and indentations.
  • See also the basic wikitext editor WikiText toolbar.

Adding OnePetro Papers:

  • Adding OnePetro articles to PetroWiki will assist industry professionals in finding relevant answers to technical questions.

Content categorization - SPE has finalized a technical taxonomy that is being used in PetroWiki, OnePetro, and other SPE content.

What is PetroWiki?

PetroWiki was created from the seven volume Petroleum Engineering Handbook (PEH) published by the Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE). PetroWiki preserves the PEH content in unaltered form (page names that start with PEH:), while allowing SPE's membership to update and expand content from the published version. Pages that do not have PEH: at the beginning may have started with content from the PEH, but have been modified over time by contributors to the wiki. Disclaimer

Unlike some other online wikis, PetroWiki content is copyright SPE. For information about using content from PetroWiki, see PetroWiki:Permissions.
