(2012-10-19)Reservoir characterization is one of the most important problems in petroleum engineering. It involves forward reservoir modeling that predicts the fluid behavior in the reservoir and inverse problem that calibrates created ...
-
(2021-04-28)Rapid modeling of multi-well interactions is extremely useful for infill drilling optimization and in the determination of optimal well spacing in reservoir development. In the case of unconventional reservoirs, especially, ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2006-10-30)Reconciling high-resolution geologic models to field production history is still a very time-consuming procedure. Recently streamline-based assisted and automatic history matching techniques, especially production data ...
-
(2018-11-29)In naturally fractured reservoirs, the performance of fractured wells is closely related to in-situ stress state and natural fracture distributions. The anisotropic geomechanical behavior of naturally fractured rock makes ...
-
(2015-01-21)Petroleum reservoir parameter inference is a challenging problem to many of the reservoir simulation work flows, especially when it comes to real reservoirs with high degree of complexity and non-linearity, and high ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)Meren field, located offshore Niger Delta, is one of the most prolific oil-producing fields in the Niger Delta. The upper Miocene D-07, D-08 and E-01 oil sands comprise a series of stacked hydrocarbon reservoirs in Block ...
-
(2011-02-22)In this thesis, we propose two novel approaches for hybrid Ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF) to overcome limitations of the traditional EnKF. The first approach is to swap the ensemble mean for the ensemble mode estimation to ...
-
(2014-12-16)Wells on the eastern side of the Midland Basin near its Eastern Shelf in Glasscock County, Texas, penetrate an Upper Leonardian succession of detrital carbonate, deposited in slope and basinal environments. Hydrocarbon ...
-
(2022-04-13)This study investigates how the structure of surfactant molecules interacts with the crude oil/rock/brine system characteristic of unconventional liquid reservoirs. In most cases, the interaction results in the improvement ...
-
(2011-02-22)Horizontal well temperature and pressure distributions can be measured by production logging or downhole permanent sensors, such as fiber optic distributed temperature sensors (DTS). Correct interpretation of temperature ...
-
(2012-10-19)Characterization of connectivity in compartmentalized deepwater Gulf of Mexico (GoM) reservoirs is an outstanding challenge of the industry that can significantly impact the development planning and recovery from these ...
-
(2019-11-07)Production data analysis for low permeability shale reservoirs is crucial in characterizing flow regimes as well as reservoir properties, and the forecasting of production is essential for portfolio and reservoir management. ...
-
(2020-03-23)The west of Texas and New Mexico Permian Basin is defined as a complex sedimentary system which is placed in the Marathon-Ouachita Orogenic Belt’s Foreland. It extends across 52 counties with an area of 75,000 square miles ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)This research combines a statistical tool called experimental design/response surface methodology with reservoir modeling and flow simulation for the purpose of reservoir characterization. Very often, it requires large ...
-
(2010-10-12)The goal of any data assimilation or history matching algorithm is to enable better reservoir management decisions through the construction of reliable reservoir performance models and the assessment of the underlying ...
