Enhanced recovery
This paper addresses the difficulty in adjusting late-stage production in waterflooded reservoirs and proposes an integrated well-network-design mode for carbon-dioxide enhanced oil recovery and storage.
This work presents the development of fast predictive models and optimization methodologies to evaluate the potential of carbon-dioxide EOR and storage operations quickly in mature oil fields.
The authors of this paper apply a deep-learning model for multivariate forecasting of oil production and carbon-dioxide-sequestration efficiency across a range of water-alternating-gas scenarios using field data from six legacy carbon-dioxide enhanced-oil-recovery projects.
