Adaptive design of experiments for calibration of complex simulators – An application to uncertainty quantification of a mature oil field
In this work we provide a practical approach to the inverse problem arising when observational data are used to calibrate parameters of an expensive simulation model. Our main application is the history matching problem in oil reservoir forecasting. In such and similar applications, the resulting inverse problem is generally ill-posed, the number of parameters to invert can be very high and the...
متن کامل The Quantification of Uncertainties in Production Prediction Using Integrated Statistical and Neural Network Approaches: An Iranian Gas Field Case Study
Uncertainty in production prediction has been subject to numerous investigations. Geological and reservoir engineering data comprise a huge number of data entries to the simulation models. Thus, uncertainty of these data can largely affect the reliability of the simulation model. Due to these reasons, it is worthy to present the desired quantity with a probability distribution instead of a sing...
متن کاملJoint quantification of uncertainty on spatial and non-spatial reservoir parameters Comparison between the Joint Modeling Method and Distance Kernel Method
The experimental design methodology is widely used to quantify uncertainty in the oil and gas industry. This technique is adapted for uncertainty quantification on non-spatial parameters, such as bubble point pressure, oil viscosity, and aquifer strength. However, it is not well adapted for the case of geostatistical (spatial) uncertainty, due to the discrete nature of many input parameters as ...
متن کاملMultilevel Quasi-Monte Carlo methods for lognormal diffusion problems
In this paper we present a rigorous cost and error analysis of a multilevel estimator based on randomly shifted Quasi-Monte Carlo (QMC) lattice rules for lognormal diffusion problems. These problems are motivated by uncertainty quantification problems in subsurface flow. We extend the convergence analysis in [Graham et al., Numer. Math. 2014] to multilevel Quasi-Monte Carlo finite element discr...
متن کاملAccurate, Efficient Quantification of Uncertainty for Flow in Heterogeneous Reservoirs Using the KLME Approach
Accurate modeling of flow in oil/gas reservoirs requires a detailed description of reservoir properties such as permeability and porosity. However, such reservoirs are inherently heterogeneous and exhibit a high degree of spatial variability in medium properties. Significant spatial heterogeneity and a limited number of measurements lead to uncertainty in characterization of reservoir propertie...
