This work describes a study in which distributed data parallel training, paired with a node-local caching pipeline, enabled efficient multigraphics-processing-unit scaling for a CO₂-storage graph-neural-network surrogate while maintaining generalization.
This paper presents a novel reservoir engineering/reservoir simulation approach—a data-driven interwell-connectivity model augmented as a digital twin—to predict reservoir dynamics and optimize operations in the Changqing oil field of China.
This work uses a novel pseudosteady-state-based simulation to reduce training-data-generation cost while maintaining high-performance predictions of data-driven proxy models for carbon-sequestration projects.
