Reservoir simulation
In this work, a perturbed-chain statistical associating fluid theory equation of state has been developed to characterize heavy-oil-associated systems containing polar components and nonpolar components with respect to phase behavior and physical properties.
In this study, a deep-neural-network-based workflow with enhanced efficiency and scalability is developed for solving complex history-matching problems.
This study presents a production-optimization method that uses a deep-learning-based proxy model for the prediction of state variables and well outputs to solve nonlinearly constrained optimization with geological uncertainty.

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…

Artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies have rapidly progressed and have significantly affected traditional reservoir engineering, bringing innovative methodologies to reservoir simulations. However, it is essential to understand that these AI and ML technologies are only as effective and trustworthy as the data they are trained on.
