Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue, titled "Geological Modelling of Hydrocarbon Reservoirs", focuses on the latest advancements in geological modelling techniques used in the exploration and production of hydrocarbon reservoirs. The accurate modelling of hydrocarbon reservoirs is essential for effective decision making, risk assessment, and resource management in the oil and gas industry.
This Special Issue showcases the state-of-the-art approaches, methods, and technologies used in geological modelling, including data acquisition, interpretation, and integration. It provides a platform for researchers, engineers, and practitioners to share their knowledge, case studies, and practical solutions to address the challenges associated with hydrocarbon reservoir modelling.
The articles featured in this Special Issue will cover a wide range of topics, including but not limited to geological data integration, geostatistical modelling, uncertainty quantification, reservoir simulation, and reservoir characterization. The interdisciplinary nature of this Special Issue encourages collaboration between various fields such as geology, geophysics, reservoir engineering, and computer science.
By disseminating the latest research findings and best practices in geological modelling of hydrocarbon reservoirs, this Special Issue aims to contribute to the development of more accurate and reliable models. It serves as a valuable resource for academics, professionals, and policymakers involved in the oil and gas industry.

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. Geosciences is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 1800 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.
