There is provided a method for modeling a hydrocarbon reservoir that includes deriving a computational mesh on a fine unstructured mesh using a multilevel mixed multiscale finite volume (MMMFV) method. Deriving the computational mesh includes computing a first algebraic multilevel basis function for a pressure, constructing an interaction region, and generating a primary mesh. A second algebraic multiscale basis function for a velocity approximation is computed and the primary mesh is discretized. The hydrocarbon reservoir is simulated using the computational mesh. A data representation of a physical hydrocarbon reservoir is generated in a non-transitory, computer-readable, medium based at least in part on the results of the simulation.

Method and system for finite volume simulation of flow

A computer implemented system and method for parallel adaptive data partitioning on a reservoir simulation using an unstructured grid includes a method of simulating a reservoir model which includes generating the reservoir model. The generated reservoir model is partitioned into multiple sets of different domains, each one corresponding to an efficient partition for a specific portion of the model.
