In recent years, artificial intelligence (AI) has been widely applied to optimization problems
in the petroleum exploration and production industry. This survey offers a detailed literature …

Prediction of petroleum production plays a key role in the petroleum engineering, but an
accurate prediction is difficult to achieve due to the complex underground conditions. In this …

Oil formation volume factor (OFVF) is considered one of the main parameters required to
characterize the crude oil. OFVF is needed in reservoir simulation and prediction of the oil …

Accurate determination of the bubble point pressure is extremely important for several
applications in oil industry. In reservoir engineering applications the bubble point pressure is …

We evaluate the application of eight different global search algorithms to the optimization of
oil production from a mature field. Our focus is on algorithms that treat the reservoir simulator …

Subsurface reservoirs are far more heterogeneous and complex than the simulation models
in terms of scale, assumptions and description. In this work, we address the issue of …

For any oil and gas company, well-testing and performance-monitoring programs are
expensive because of the cost of equipment and personnel. In addition, it may not be …

This paper presents a comprehensive evaluation of a new control technique for the sphere
motor system, aimed at achieving accurate tracking, robust and dispersion of vibrations …

Accurate estimation of rock elastic and failure parameters plays a vital role in petroleum, civil
and geotechnical engineering applications. During drilling operations, continuous logs of …

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 …
