Channel sand acts as stratigraphic trap for hydrocarbon accumulation in many parts of the world. Delineation of this type of reservoir is crucial as channel sand may be scarce and inaccurate location of the drilling wells could lose a huge currency. To differentiate channel sand from the host rocks, attributes such as P and S wave velocity ratio plays a vital role in the study area. The velocit...

In the management of reservoirs it is an important issue to utilize the available data in order to make accurate forecasts. In this paper a novel approach for frequent updating of the near-well reservoir model as new measurements becomes available is presented. The main focus of this approach is to have an updated model usable for forecasting. These forecasts should have initial values that are...

Abstract Selulu Reservoir is located in Waru District, North Panajam Paser Regency. It one of the tourist destinations supporting tourism sector. Land use changes and urbanization have potential impacts on environment. This study aimed to determine Water Quality Status Index (WQI) Reservoir. Hopefully, result will become basis for future reservoir management keep water quality well. The method ...

Optimal use of water is an important objective of water resource development projects all over the world. An integrated approach toward better water resources management in river basins for irrigation planning is needed to find optimal water use policies. In the past, researchers used variables affecting crop pattern and reservoir releases as decision variables (Yeh, 1985). Labadie, 1993, found...

This study aims to investigate the different management policies of multi-reservoir systems and their impact on the demand supply and hydropower generation in Great Karun River basin. For this purpose, the semi-distributed simulation-optimization  model of the Great Karun River basin is developed. Also, the multi-objective particle swarm optimization algorithm is applied to optimize the develop...
