Reservoir management and production optimization - Bru21
Reservoir management and production optimization
Development and operation of oil and gas fields require decision-making under uncertainty on several horizons, from field development and optimal reservoir drainage strategies to the day-to-day decisions for operation of the current production infrastructure. BRU21 aims to develop computational tools and strategies to optimize production and manage uncertainty on both longer and shorter horizons. To achieve this, we use learning-based approaches to exploit the abundance of data, and combine with mechanistic models when data lacks information...read more
