Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Reservoir simulation is the backbone of many decision-making processes in the oil and gas industry. Topics such as history matching, uncertainty quantification and production optimisation are key research areas in petroleum engineering and geosciences. Although advances in research on physics-based models are growing, the development of approximate proxy models based on data analytics is in high demand in research activities on multi-phase flow simulation in subsurface formations. With recent development in computer hardware and super computation, new techniques such as deep learning algorithms have received attraction among researchers in resource engineering, computer science and geoscience, and other related fields.
This Special Issue aims to collect original research or review articles on different aspects of reservoir simulation, data analytics and machine learning. Different types of reservoir simulation and proxy modelling for hydrocarbon reservoirs, water resources, CO2 sequestration and unconventional resources will be considered.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Energies is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 2600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
