Canada’s development of large-scale digital drilling core libraries and open geoscience data platforms follows approaches pioneered in Australia, particularly Western Australia, through decades of government investment in geoscience data collection and preservation.
This research focuses on combining physics-based expert rules with machine learning to improve the detection of failure-related events in electrical submersible pumps.
A combination of physics principles and machine-learning techniques is used in this work to develop a virtual flowmeter for oil-production optimization in electrical-submersible-pump-lifted oil wells, resulting in reliable generalization.
