Integrated Well-Network-Design Mode Developed for Carbon-Dioxide EOR and Storage
This paper addresses the difficulty in adjusting late-stage production in waterflooded reservoirs and proposes an integrated well-network-design mode for carbon-dioxide enhanced oil recovery and storage.
Fast Predictive Models Developed for Carbon-Dioxide EOR and Storage in Mature Oil Fields
This work presents the development of fast predictive models and optimization methodologies to evaluate the potential of carbon-dioxide EOR and storage operations quickly in mature oil fields.
Deep-Learning Technique Optimizes Sequestration, Oil Production in CCUS Projects
The authors of this paper apply a deep-learning model for multivariate forecasting of oil production and carbon-dioxide-sequestration efficiency across a range of water-alternating-gas scenarios using field data from six legacy carbon-dioxide enhanced-oil-recovery projects.
Integration of Models Aids Prediction of Effects of Multibench Interference
The aim of this study is to incorporate detailed geological, petrophysical, and hydraulic fracturing models to better predict and mitigate the effects of interbench interactions.
Workflow Enables Effective Fracture-Geometry Analysis in Eagle Ford
The objective of this paper is to apply a developed workflow to determine the propped hydraulic fracture geometry in a horizontal multistage fractured well, incorporating production, pressure, and strain data.
Integrated Approach to Gasfield Development, Carbon Sequestration Minimizes Emissions
This study explores the feasibility of implementing in-situ carbon dioxide recycling for sequestration as a fit-for-purpose developmental strategy for a Malaysian gas field characterized by an initial carbon-dioxide content of approximately 60%.
