Reservoir characterization
The companies have finished a seismic survey of an underexplored area of the Bonaparte Basin offshore northwest Australia.
This paper presents a workflow that combines probabilistic modeling and deep-learning models trained on an ensemble of physics models to improve scalability and reliability for shale and tight-reservoir forecasting.
This paper discusses the approach used to sectorize a mature giant carbonate reservoir located onshore Abu Dhabi for the purposes of reservoir management, offtake, and injection balancing.

This paper develops a deep-learning work flow that can predict the changes in carbon dioxide mineralization over time and space in saline aquifers, offering a more-efficient approach compared with traditional physics-based simulations. -
The authors integrated azimuths and intensities recorded by fiber optics and compared them with post-flowback production-allocation and interference testing to identify areas of conductive fractures and offset-well communication.
-
The authors of this paper propose an artificial-intelligence-assisted work flow that uses machine-learning techniques to identify sweet spots in carbonate reservoirs.

The authors of this paper describe a seismic reprocessing campaign for an Egyptian oil field that had yielded poor seismic data.
-
This paper describes a method with multitiered analysis to leverage machine-learning techniques to process passive seismic monitoring data, pumping and injection pressure, and rate for fracture and fault analysis.
-
The main objective of this paper is to investigate the relationship between strain change and pressure change under various fractured reservoir conditions to better estimate conductive fractures and pressure profiles.

Recent technical papers have further shown the steady increase in the application of advanced seismic techniques and machine learning to mature to production “stranded” and “advantaged” hydrocarbon-bearing accumulations ; improve carbon capture, storage, and leak detection; and analyze naturally and artificially fractured reservoirs.

Uncertainty comes in all scales and dimensions. This challenges us to learn at all scales possible, from the fume hoods in the laboratory to magnificently exposed outcrops and through deep narrow boreholes that drill through subsurface reservoirs. The combined efforts often convert learnings to actionable intelligence.
