We present an efficient workflow that combines multiscale (MS) forward simulation and stochastic gradient computation - MS-StoSAG - for the optimization of well controls applied to waterflooding under geological uncertainty. A two-stage iterative Multiscale Finite Volume (i-MSFV), a mass conservative reservoir simulation strategy, is employed as...

Since the early 2000's there has been a significant focus from many groups around the world towards the development and application of innovative technologies in order to improve reservoir management strategies and optimize field development plans. Benchmark studies are a very valuable way of evaluating and demonstrating the status and...

In this work, the application of tensor methodologies for computer-assisted history matching of channelized reservoirs is explored. A tensor-based approach is used for the parameterization of petrophysical parameters to reduce the dimensionality of the parameter estimation problem. Building on the work of Afra and Gildin (2013); Afra et.al. ...

Conflicting objectives are frequently encountered in most real-world problems. When dealing with conflicting objectives, decision makers prefer to obtain a range of possible optimal solutions from which to choose. In theory, methods exists that can produce a range of possible solutions, some of which are “Pareto Optimal”. The application of...

We consider a technique to estimate an approximate gradient using an ensemble of randomly chosen control vectors, known as Ensemble Optimization (EnOpt) in the oil and gas reservoir simulation community. In particular, we address how to obtain accurate approximate gradients when the underlying numerical mod- els contain uncertain parameters...

We consider robust ensemble-based (EnOpt) multiobjective production optimization of on/off inflow-control devices (ICDs) for a sector model inspired by a real-field case. The use of on/off valves as optimization variables leads to a discrete control problem. We propose a reparameterization of such discrete controls in terms of switching times...

With an increase in the number of applications of ensemble optimization (EnOpt) for production optimization, the theoretical understanding of the gradient quality has received little attention. An important factor that influences the quality of the gradient estimate is the number of samples. In this study we use principles from statistical...

The ‘Egg Model’ is a synthetic reservoir model consisting of an ensemble of 101 relatively small three-dimensional realizations of a channelized oil reservoir produced under water flooding conditions with eight water injectors and four oil producers. It has been used in numerous publications to demonstrate a variety of aspects related to...

We consider robust ensemble-based multi-objective optimization using a hierarchical switching algorithm for combined long-term and short term water flooding optimization. We apply a modified formulation of the ensemble gradient which results in improved performance compared to earlier formulations. We also apply multi-dimensional scaling to...

In an earlier study two hierarchical multi-objective methods were suggested to include short-term targets in life-cycle production optimization. However this earlier study has two limitations: 1) the adjoint formulation is used to obtain gradient information, requiring simulator source code access and an extensive implementation effort, and 2)...
