Abstract:	Efficient simulation of multiphase, multicomponent fluid flow in heterogeneous reservoirs is critical for optimizing hydrocarbon recovery. In this study, we investigate advanced linearization techniques for fully implicit compositional reservoir simulations, a problem characterized by highly nonlinear governing equations that challenge both accuracy and computational efficiency. We implement four methods—finite backward difference (FDB), finite central difference (FDC), operator-based linearization (OBL), and residual accelerated Jacobian (RAJ)—within an MPI-based parallel framework and benchmark their performance against a legacy simulator across three test cases: (i) a five-component hydrocarbon gas field with CO2 injection, (ii) a ten-component gas field with CO2 injection, and (iii) a ten-component gas field case without injection. Key quantitative findings include: in the five-component case, OBL achieved convergence with only 770 nonlinear iterations (compared to 841–843 for other methods) and reduced operator computation time to 9.6 of total simulation time, highlighting its speed for simpler systems; in contrast, for the more complex ten-component injection, FDB proved most robust with 706 nonlinear iterations versus 723 for RAJ, while OBL failed to converge; in noninjection scenarios, RAJ effectively captured nonlinear dynamics with comparable iteration counts but lower overall computational expense. These results demonstrate that the optimal linearization strategy is context-dependent—OBL is advantageous for simpler problems requiring rapid solutions, whereas FDB and RAJ are preferable for complex systems demanding higher accuracy. The novelty of this work lies in integrating these advanced linearization schemes into a scalable, parallel simulation framework and providing a comprehensive, quantitative comparison that extends beyond previous efforts in reservoir simulation literature.
