Parallel-processing of invasion percolation for large-scale, high-resolution simulation of secondary hydrocarbon migration

A parallel-processing hydrocarbon (HC) migration and accumulation methodology is applied to basin data to determine migration pathways and traps for high-resolution petroleum system modeling. HC is determined in parallel to have been expelled in source rocks associated with a plurality of grid cells divided into one or more subdomains. Potential trap peaks are identified within the plurality of grid cells. An invasion percolation (IP) process is performed until the HC stops migrating upon arrival to the plurality of trap peaks. A determination is made as to whether the grid cells containing HC contains an excess volume of HC. An accumulation process is performed to model the filling of the HC at a trap associated with the identified potential trap peaks. The trap boundary cell list is updated in parallel together with an HC potential value. Trap filling terminates when excess HC is depleted or a spill point is reached.

LOGARITHMIC COMPUTATION TECHNOLOGY THAT USES DERIVATIVES TO REDUCE ERROR

Systems, apparatuses and methods may provide for technology that establishes a point of intersection based on a rate of change in a logarithmic function and generates a first linear estimation of the logarithmic function, wherein the first linear estimation has the point of intersection as an upper bound. Additionally, a second linear estimation of the logarithmic function may be generated, wherein the second linear estimation has the point of intersection as a lower bound. In one example, linear estimations of an antilogarithmic function may be similarly generated based on the rate of change of the antilogarithmic function.
