Production
Dutch leaders have voted to halt all future production from the large gas field due to seismic activity linked to extraction operations.
The index integrates three independent components extracted from static and dynamic parameters: reservoir permeability thickness, movable gas, and reservoir pressure from a historically matched dynamic model.
Supervised learning was used to develop an ensemble of models that account for historical production data, geolocation parameters, and completion parameters to forecast production behavior of oil and gas wells.

This article describes how Oxy developed an in-house application to handle critical production operations tasks including surveillance, optimization, downtime entry, and well testing. The application, called Nexus, allows well analysts and production engineers to manage twice the number of wells they were able to manage just 5 years ago.
