This paper aims to establish a set of best practices for generating particle-size-distribution data from core samples.
Unlike traditional AI approaches that rely primarily on historical data, physics-based AI integrates physical laws, engineering expertise, and operational constraints directly into the learning process. Three recent SPE papers illustrate how this paradigm is transforming the industry through intelligent condition monitoring, virtual sensing, and autonomous production …
This research focuses on combining physics-based expert rules with machine learning to improve the detection of failure-related events in electrical submersible pumps.
