Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reservoir simulation is widely applied for the management of oil and gas production and CO2 storage operations. It can be computationally expensive, however, particularly when the flow physics is complicated and many simulation runs must be performed. This has motivated the development of reduced-order modeling (ROM) procedures, where the goal is to achieve high degrees of computational speedup along with reasonable solution accuracy. In this work we develop and apply two types of ROM methods -- one based on proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) and piecewise linearization, and one based on deep learning. We first develop a POD-based ROM, referred to as POD-TPWL, to simulate coupled flow-geomechanics problems. In POD-TPWL, proper orthogonal decomposition, which enables the representation of solution unknowns in a low-dimensional subspace, is combined with trajectory piecewise linearization (TPWL), where solutions with new sets of well controls are represented via linearization around previously simulated (training) solutions. The over-determined system of equations is projected into the low-dimensional subspace using a least-squares Petrov-Galerkin procedure. The states and derivative matrices required by POD-TPWL, generated by an extended version of Stanford's Automatic-Differentiation-based General Purpose Research Simulator, are provided in an offline (pre-processing or training) step. Offline computational requirements correspond to the equivalent of 5-8 full-order simulations, depending on the number of training runs used. Runtime (online) speedups of O(100) or more are achieved for new POD-TPWL test-case simulations. The POD-TPWL model is tested extensively for a 2D coupled problem involving oil-water flow and geomechanics. It is shown that POD-TPWL provides predictions of reasonable accuracy, relative to full-order simulations, for well-rate quantities, global pressure and saturation fields, global maximum and minimum principal stress fields, and the Mohr-Coulomb rock failure criterion, for the cases considered. A systematic study of POD-TPWL error is conducted using various training procedures for different levels of perturbation between test and training cases. The use of randomness in the well bottom-hole pressure profiles used in training is shown to be beneficial in terms of POD-TPWL solution accuracy. The procedure is also successfully applied to a prototype 3D example case. We next apply the POD-TPWL reduced-order modeling framework to simulate and optimize the injection stage of CO2 storage operations. The use of multiple derivatives, meaning that the linearizations are performed around different training solutions at different time steps, is described and assessed. Two example cases are presented, and the ability of the POD-TPWL model to accurately capture bottom-hole pressure, when time-varying CO2 injection rates are prescribed, is demonstrated. It is also shown that, for these examples, the reduced-order models can provide accurate estimates of CO2 molar fraction at particular locations in the domain. The POD-TPWL model is then incorporated into a mesh adaptive direct search optimization framework where the objective is to minimize the amount of CO2 reaching a target layer at the end of the injection period. The POD-TPWL model is shown to be well suited for this purpose and to provide optimization results that are comparable to those obtained using full-order simulations. POD-TPWL preprocessing computations entail a (serial) time equivalent of about 6.7 full-order simulations, though the resulting runtime speedups, relative to full-order simulation, are about 100--150 for the cases considered. Finally, we develop a new deep-learning-based ROM for reservoir simulation. The reduced-order model is based on an existing embed-to-control (E2C) framework and includes an auto-encoder, which projects the system to a low-dimensional subspace, and a linear transition model, which approximates the evolution of the system states in low dimension. In addition to the loss function for data mismatch considered in the original E2C framework, we introduce a physics-based loss function that penalizes predictions that are inconsistent with the governing flow equations. The loss function is also modified to emphasize accuracy in key well quantities of interest (e.g., fluid production rates). The E2C ROM is shown to have interesting parallels with POD-TPWL. The new ROM is applied to oil-water flow in a 2D heterogeneous reservoir. A total of 300 high-fidelity training simulations are performed in the offline stage, and the network training requires 10-12~minutes on a Tesla V100 GPU node. Online (runtime) computations achieve speedups of O(1000) relative to full-order simulations. Extensive test case results, with well controls varied over large ranges, are presented. Accurate ROM predictions are achieved for global saturation and pressure fields at particular times, and for injection and production well responses as a function of time. Error is shown to increase when 100 or 200 (rather than 300) training runs are used to construct the E2C ROM.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Subsurface flow modeling is an indispensable task for reservoir management, but the associated computational cost is burdensome owing to model complexity and the fact that many simulation runs are required for its applications such as production optimization, uncertainty quantification, and history matching. To relieve the computational burden in reservoir flow modeling, a reduced-order modeling procedure based on hyper-reduction is presented. The procedure consists of three components: state reduction, constraint reduction, and nonlinearity treatment. State reduction based on proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) is considered, and the impact of state reduction, with different strategies for collecting snapshots, on accuracy and predictability is investigated. Petrov- Galerkin projection is used for constraint reduction, and a hyper-reduction that couples the Petrov-Galerkin projection and a 'gappy' reconstruction is applied for the nonlinearity treatment. The hyper-reduction method is a Gauss-Newton framework with approximated tensors (GNAT), and the main contribution of this study is the presentation of a procedure for applying the method to subsurface flow simulation. A fully implicit oil-water two-phase subsurface flow model in three-dimensional space is considered, and the application of the proposed hyper-reduced-order modeling procedure achieves a runtime speedup of more than 300 relative to the full-order method, which cannot be achieved when only constraint reduction is adopted. In addition, two types of sequential Bayesian filtering for history matching are considered to investigate the performance of the developed hyper-reduced-order model to relive the associated computational cost. First, an ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) is considered for Gaussian system and a procedure embedding the hyper-reduced model (HRM) into the EnKF is presented. The use of the HRM for the EnKF significantly reduces the computational cost without much loss of accuracy, but the combination requires a few remedies such as clustering to find an optimum reduced-order model according to spatial similarity of geological condition, which causes an additional computation. For non-Gaussian system, an advanced particle filter, known as regularized particle filter (RPF), is considered because it does not take any distributional assumptions. Particle filtering has rarely been applied for reservoir history matching due to the fact that it is hard to locate the initial particles on highly probable regions of state spaces especially when large scale system is considered, which makes the required number of particles scale exponentially with the model dimension. To resolve the issues, reparameterization is adopted to reduce the order of the geological parameters. For the reparameterization, principal component analysis (PCA) is used to compute the reduced space of the model parameters, and by constraining the filtering analysis with the computed subspace the required number of initial particles can be reduced down to a manageable level. Consequently, a huge computational saving is achieved by embedding the HRM into the RPF. Furthermore, the additional cost of clustering required to identify the geospatially optimum reduced-order model is saved because the advanced particle filter allows to easily identify the groups of geospatially similar particles.

This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reservoir simulation of realistic systems can be computationally demanding because of the large number of system unknowns and the intrinsic nonlinearity of typical problems. Compositional simulation, in which multiple components and complex phase behavior are present, can be particularly challenging. The high computational cost of reservoir simulation represents a substantial issue for applications such as production optimization and history matching, in which hundreds or thousands of simulation runs must be performed. Reduced-order modeling represents a promising approach for accelerating the simulations required for these important applications. In this work, we focus on the development and application of a reduced-order modeling technique called POD-TPWL, which combines trajectory piecewise linearization (TPWL) and proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) to provide highly efficient surrogate models. The POD-TPWL method expresses new solutions in terms of linearizations around states generated (and saved) during previously simulated "training" runs. High-dimensional states (e.g., pressure and saturation in every grid block in an oil-water problem) are projected optimally into a low-dimensional subspace using POD. We first consider the application of POD-TPWL for data assimilation (or history matching) in oil-water systems. The POD-TPWL model developed for this application represents simulation results for new geological realizations in terms of a linearization around training cases. Geological models are expressed in reduced terms using a Karhunen-Loeve expansion of the log-transmissibility field. Thus, both the reservoir states (represented using POD) and geological parameters are described very concisely. The reduced-order representation of flow and geology is appropriate for use with ensemble-based data assimilation procedures, and here it is incorporated into an ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF) framework to enrich the ensemble at relatively low cost. The method is able to reconstruct full-order states, which are required by EnKF, whenever necessary. The combined technique enables EnKF to be applied using many fewer high-fidelity reservoir simulations than would otherwise be required to avoid ensemble collapse. For two and three-dimensional example cases, EnKF results using 50 high-fidelity simulations along with 150 POD-TPWL simulations are shown to be much better than those using only 50 high-fidelity simulations (for which ensemble collapse is observed) and are, in fact, generally comparable to the results achieved using 200 high-fidelity simulations. We next develop a POD-TPWL methodology for oil-gas compositional systems. This model is based on the molar formulation in Stanford's General Purpose Research Simulator with Automatic Differentiation, AD-GPRS, which uses pressure and overall component mole fractions as the primary unknowns. Several new features, including the application of a Petrov-Galerkin projection to reduce the number of equations (rather than the Galerkin projection, which was used previously), and a new procedure for determining which saved state to use for linearization, are incorporated into the method. Results are presented for heterogeneous three-dimensional reservoir models with up to six hydrocarbon components. Reasonably close agreement between full-order reference solutions and compositional POD-TPWL simulations is demonstrated for the cases considered. Construction of the POD-TPWL model requires preprocessing overhead computations equivalent to about three to four full-order runs. Runtime speedups using POD-TPWL are, however, very significant -- about a factor of 500-800 for the cases considered. The POD-TPWL model is thus well suited for use in computational optimization, in which many simulations must be performed, and we present examples demonstrating its application for such problems. Finally, we investigate the accuracy and stability of different constraint reduction treatments for POD-TPWL models. Following an error analysis of the general POD-TPWL representation, two projection methods, namely Galerkin projection and Petrov-Galerkin projection, are derived by minimizing the constraint reduction error under different norms. These projection methods are assessed computationally for oil-water and compositional systems. For oil-water systems, Galerkin projection combined with a stabilization procedure is generally more accurate than Petrov-Galerkin projection, though even with this stabilization Galerkin projection is not guaranteed to be stable at all time steps. For compositional systems, the POD-TPWL model with Galerkin projection exhibits poor stability, while Petrov-Galerkin provides a consistently stable and robust POD-TPWL model. A hybrid procedure for oil-water systems, which applies different projections at different time steps to achieve both accuracy and stability, is presented. Two other constraint reduction methods, referred to as inverse projection and weighted inverse projection, are also formulated and tested. These approaches are computationally more expensive but do offer some theoretical advantages, and may be useful in realistic problems following further development.

This book was released on 2018 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reservoir simulation is an important tool for understanding and predicting subsurface flow and reservoir performance. In applications such as production optimization and history matching, thousands of simulation runs may be required. Therefore, proxy methods that can provide approximate solutions in much shorter times can be very useful. Reduced-order modeling (ROM) methods are a particular type of proxy procedure that entail a reduction of the number of unknown variables in the nonlinear equations. This dissertation focuses on two of the most promising proper orthogonal decomposition (POD)-based ROM methods, POD-TPWL and POD-DEIM. A separate (non-ROM) technique to accelerate nonlinear convergence for oil-water problems is presented in the appendix.

This book was released on 2012 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the key challenges in the Oil & Gas industry is to best manage reservoirs under different conditions, constrained by production rates based on various economic scenarios, in order to meet energy demands and maximize profit. To address the energy demand challenges, a transformation in the paradigm of the utilization of "real-time" data has to be brought to bear, as one changes from a static decision making to a dynamical and data-driven management of production in conjunction with real-time risk assessment. The use of modern methods of computational modeling and simulation may be the only means to account for the two major tasks involved in this paradigm shift: (1) large-scale computations; and (2) efficient utilization of the deluge of data streams. Recently, history matching and optimization were brought together in the oil industry into an integrated and more structured approach called optimal closed-loop reservoir management. Closed-loop control algorithms have already been applied extensively in other engineering fields, including aerospace, mechanical, electrical and chemical engineering. However, their applications to porous media flow, such as - in the current practices and improvements in oil and gas recovery, in aquifer management, in bio-landfill optimization, and in CO2 sequestration have been minimal due to the large-scale nature of existing problems that generate complex models for controller design and real-time implementation. Their applicability to a realistic field is also an open topic because of the large-scale nature of existing problems that generate complex models for controller design and real-time implementation, hindering its applicability. Basically, three sources of high-dimensionality can be identified from the underlying reservoir models: size of parameter space, size of state space, and the number of scenarios or realizations necessary to account for uncertainty. In this paper we will address type problem of high dimensionality by focusing on the mitigation of the size of the state-space models by means of model-order reduction techniques in a systems framework. We will show how one can obtain accurate reduced order models which are amenable to fast implementations in the closed-loop framework .The research will focus on System Identification (System-ID) (Jansen, 2009) and Model Predictive Control (MPC) (Gildin, 2008) to serve this purpose. A mathematical treatment of System-ID and MPC as applied to reservoir simulation will be presented. Linear MPC would be studied on two specific reservoir models after generating low-order reservoir models using System-ID methods. All the comparisons are provided from a set of realistic simulations using the commercial reservoir simulator called Eclipse. With the improvements in oil recovery and reductions in water production effectively for both the cases that were considered, we could reinforce our stance in proposing the implementation of MPC and System-ID towards the ultimate goal of "real-time" production optimization.
