Reservoir simulation
Known as Arena, the collaboration aims to improve decision-making across increasingly complex reservoirs and growing volumes of subsurface data.
A new framework combines analytical and numerical insights, extending vertical equilibrium modeling and guiding reservoir-scale implementation, providing reservoir engineers with practical guidance for assessing accuracy across flow regimes and long-term carbon-dioxide migration.
This article from the SPE Integrated Reservoir Management Technical Section (IRMTS) examines the closed-loop IRM approach, from insight to execution to learning, and the limits of technology-driven solutions.

This article presents the application of a reinforcement learning control framework based on the Deep Deterministic Policy Gradient. The crack propagation process is simulated in Abaqus, which is integrated with a reinforcement learning environment to control crack propagation in brittle material. The real-world deployment of the proposed control framework is also dis…
