چکیده
A virtual flow meter (VFM) enables continuous prediction of rates in petroleum production systems. The predicted may aid the daily control and optimization a asset. Gray-box modeling is an approach that combines mechanistic data-driven modeling. objective to create computationally feasible VFM for use real-time applications, with high accuracy scientifically consistent behavior. This article investigates five different gray-box model types industrial case study using real, historical data from 10 wells, spanning at most four years production. results are diverse oil rate error range 1.8%-40.6%. Further, casts light upon nontrivial task balancing learning both physics data. Consequently, providing general recommendations towards suitability hybrid models challenging. Nevertheless, promising indicate VFMs reduce while remaining consistent. findings motivate further experimentation suggest several future research directions improve performance scientific consistency.

Virtualization can provide significant benefits in data centers by enabling virtual machine migration to eliminate hotspots. We present Sandpiper, a system that automates the task of monitoring and detecting hotspots, determining a new mapping of physical to virtual resources and initiating the necessary migrations. Sandpiper implements a black-box approach that is fully OSand application-agnos...
متن کاملA Machine Learning Approach for Virtual Flow Metering and Forecasting
We are concerned with robust and accurate forecasting of multiphase flow rates in wells and pipelines during oil and gas production. In practice, the possibility to physically measure the rates is often limited; besides, it is desirable to estimate future values of multiphase rates based on the previous behavior of the system. In this work, we demonstrate that a Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) re...

متن کاملVirtual Flow Metering using B-spline Surrogate Models
Existing optimization-based virtual flow metering solutions use advanced, blackbox process models directly in the optimization problem. This approach has many potential disadvantages, for example: non-smooth models and lack of derivative information may hamper the optimization solver. In this paper a new approach to optimization-based virtual flow metering using B-spline surrogate models is pre...
