This paper addresses the difficulty in adjusting late-stage production in waterflooded reservoirs and proposes an integrated well-network-design mode for CO₂ enhanced oil recovery and storage.
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…
