The identification of sweet spots, areas within a reservoir with the highest production
potential, has been revolutionized by the integration of machine learning (ML) algorithms …

Abstract Steam Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) is a typical thermal recovery process
consisting of an upper horizontal injector and a lower horizontal producer, which heats and …

Gas kick occurs frequently during deep-water drilling operations caused by the lack of safe
margin between pore pressure and leakage pressure. The existing research is limited to gas …

Reservoir characterization, essential for understanding subsurface heterogeneity, often
faces challenges due to scale-dependent variations. This study addresses this issue by …

Lithology identification plays a vital role in defining the petroleum reservoir. Although well
logging represents the traditional means of obtaining petrophysical data for lithology …

Waterflood has been widely applied across the world as the most important secondary
recovery process to improve reservoir performance. The schemes applied to waterflood …

Oil production from tight oil reservoirs has become economically feasible because of the
combination of horizontal drilling and multistage hydraulic fracturing. Optimal fracture design …

Horizontal wells with hydraulic fractures enable economical hydrocarbon extraction from
unconventional reservoirs, and the associated transient production data is a reliable source …

The behavior of stress-dependent permeability has been an important research topic for
oil/gas production. The majority of permeability models for porous media have been …

The precise characterization of geological bodies in fracture-vuggy carbonates is
challenging due to their high complexity and heterogeneous distribution. This study aims to …
