The numerical modeling of petroleum systems has improved substantially in recent years due to advances in organic geochemistry and models of multi-phase fluid flow, numerical methods and computer graphics. The basin modeling has become an indispensable tool in the exploratory strategy of oil companies because it provides a dynamic, objective and integrated view of processes, such as sedimentation, compaction, water flow, heat transfer, maturity of source rocks, oil expulsion , migration and accumulation.
