在油气藏高潜力区域布置和设计井位是油田开发规划的关键步骤。然而,仅仅识别这些区域并不能解决最大化最终油气采收率的挑战。除了识别这些区域外,还必须优化井眼布置和设计。本文提出了一种有效的井位布置数学优化方法,该方法可以最大限度地接触油气藏中的产层,从而在油气藏中找到最佳位置。
问题陈述
在管理复杂问题的同时兼顾多个油田开发目标是一个重大障碍。
Placement and design of wells in high-potential regions within hydrocarbon reservoirs is a critical step in field development planning. However, identification of these regions does not address the challenges of maximizing ultimate hydrocarbon recovery. This identification must be complemented by optimizing wellbore placement and design. The complete paper presents an efficient mathematical optimization method for well placement that maximizes contact with the productive zones for the best locations in the reservoir.
Accommodating multiple field development objectives while managing complexities poses a significant hurdle.
