Derivative Computation using an Adjoint-Based Goal-Oriented Iterative Multiscale Lagrangian Framework: Application to Reservoir Simulation

Even though negative effects on the use of crude oil have surfaced over the past years, our energy matrix still largely relies on this energy source. The production of oil, therefore, plays an important role in our society. Unfortunately, the process of oil production is highly uncertain. There are uncertainties associated on the production...

Optimization of the Al-Shaheen Field Performance using Smart Well Technology

This MSc thesis reports the results on optimizing the Al-Shaheen field performance using smart well technology. The field is currently being developed by Maersk Oil and Gas (MOG) offshore Qatar, using large-scale water injection on very long horizontal wells. The studied reservoir consists of a laterally uniform, tight matrix. However, undesired...
