Decarbonization
This work presents the development of fast predictive models and optimization methodologies to evaluate the potential of CO₂ EOR and storage operations quickly in mature oil fields.
Optimization of water-alternating-gas (WAG) processes is critical for maximizing both oil recovery and carbon-sequestration efficiency in CO2 enhanced oil recovery (EOR) projects. Conventional optimization using simulation models can be cumbersome because of the vast design space and high uncertainty. In this study, a deep-learning model, the temporal fusion transform…
This study identifies critical knowledge gaps in wellbore integrity and underscores areas that require further investigation, providing insights into how wellbores must evolve to meet the technical demands of the energy transition.
