A New Algorithm for Automatic History Matching

چکیده
W. H. CHEN G. R. GAVALAS J. H. SEINFELD M. L. WASSERMAN History-matching problems, in which reservoir parameters arc to be estimated from well pressure data, are formulated as optimal control problems. The necessary conditions for optimality lead naturally to gradient optimization methods for determining the optimal parameter estimates. The key feature of the approach is that reservoir properties are considered as continuous functions of position rather than as uniform in a certain number of zones. The optimal control approach is illustrated on a hypothetical reservoir and on an actual Saudi Arabian reservoir, both characterized by single phase flow. A significant saving in computing time over conventional constant-zone gradient optimization methods is demonstrated.

Fractured Reservoirs History Matching based on Proxy Model and Intelligent Optimization Algorithms
In this paper, a new robust approach based on Least Square Support Vector Machine (LSSVM) as a proxy model is used for an automatic fractured reservoir history matching. The proxy model is made to model the history match objective function (mismatch values) based on the history data of the field. This model is then used to minimize the objective function through Particle Swarm Optimization (...
