This paper presents a physics-assisted deep-learning model to facilitate transfer learning in unconventional reservoirs by integrating the complementary strengths of physics-based and data-driven predictive models.
-
This paper focuses on characterization of fracture hits in the Eagle Ford, methods to predict their effects on production, and mitigation techniques.
