Reservoir characterization
This paper presents a novel methodology for assessing the rapid mineral carbonation of carbon dioxide through geochemical interactions with carbon-, magnesium-, and iron-rich minerals abundant in geological formations.
This study integrates physics-based constraints into machine-learning models, thereby improving their predictive accuracy and robustness.
This paper introduces a machine-learning approach that integrates well-logging data to enhance depth selection, thereby increasing the likelihood of obtaining accurate and valuable formation-pressure results.

While some try to put the two enormous oil producers toe-to-toe, the best thing to do might be to understand why they are different.
-
To enhance the applicability of localization to various history-matching problems, the authors adopt an adaptive localization scheme that exploits the correlations between model variables and observations.
-
A challenging problem of automated history-matching work flows is ensuring that, after applying updates to previous models, the resulting history-matched models remain consistent geologically.
