仿真技术和虚拟技术在石油工业中的运用

Application of Simulation and Virtual Reality to Petroleum Industry

石油工业是一个技术性强的复杂系统,所面对的现实对象是地下数千公尺深的地层,在多数情况下无法定量、准确地对其进行真实描述。因此,合理地对其进行仿真研究就显得至关重要。而计算机技术的飞速发展,又为仿真技术在石油工业中的大规模应用提供了可能。文中探讨了几种仿真技术在石油工业中的应用情况,并对其应用前景进行了分析,同时,简要介绍了基于仿真技术发展起来的虚拟现实技术在石油工业中的应用。

Petroleum industry is a complex system full of technicality, the case it faces is layer kilometers deep. In most cases, quantitative analysis and accurate description is very difficult. Therefore, simulation research plays a very important role. The development of computer technology supplies possibility to application of simulation to petroleum industry. This paper analysed some applied situation and application prospect of simulation in oil industry, at the same time, introduced the application of virtual reality(VR)to petroleum industry.
