Safety
This paper presents a physics-informed machine learning method that enhances the accuracy of pressure transient analysis, predicting reservoir properties to enhance waste slurry injection and waste disposal.
Through realistic simulations, virtual reality allows for an unprecedented level of immersion and interactivity that traditional training methods cannot offer.
Researchers with the National Energy Technology Laboratory showed that naturally occurring signals in underground fluids can serve as effective indicators of flow patterns between existing wellbores. Understanding these patterns can lead to increased efficiency and safety.
