Projektbeschreibung
Neue Technologien verbessern Leistungen der Lagerstättensimulation
Zur Förderung von Öl aus Erdöllagerstätten ist die Anwendung fortgeschrittener Verfahren notwendig. Die Förderung aus Kohlenwasserstofflagerstätten erfordert drei Schritte: der erste Schritt ergibt sich aus der internen Energie der Lagerstätte, der zweite umfasst die Injektion von Wasser oder Gas, um den Druck zu stabilisieren, und der dritte ist der Vorgang zur Förderung des nicht gewonnenen Öls. Normalerweise werden Lagerstättensimulationen durchgeführt, um die Leistungsfähigkeit der angewandten Methoden zu bewerten. Diese Simulationen sind jedoch zeitaufwendig, da mehrere Durchgänge nötig sind, um optimale Ergebnisse zu erzielen. Das EU-finanzierte Projekt SPM-RS wird eine innovative Strategie entwickeln, um benutzerfreundliche intelligente Proxymodelle zu erstellen, die die Laufzeit für leistungsfähige Lagerstättensimulationen wesentlich senken. Das Projekt wird fortgeschrittene Methoden miteinander verbinden, darunter statistische, optimierende und datengestützte Verfahren.
Ziel
Despite the progress in renewable energies, oil and gas remain the primary source of energy. Recovery from hydrocarbon reservoirs is subjected to three steps: primary, secondary and tertiary. The primary step results from the intrinsic reservoir energy; the second stage usually consists of injection of water or gas to support the pressure; and the third stage is the process of extracting the oil that cannot be recovered during the previous stages, by injecting miscible gas, thermal and chemicals. To assess the performance of implemented methods during the recovery steps, reservoir simulations are usually performed. However, these traditional simulations are known to be time-consuming, and significant number of runs is required to achieve optimal results. This project will use a combination of advanced methods including optimization, statistics and data-driven techniques, to develop a novel strategy for establishing user-friendly smart proxy models which aim at reducing significantly the run-time in reservoir simulation tasks. The project will be performed at four levels: the physical and numerical aspects of the recovery methods, sampling strategies to select runs for the proxy, learning techniques to build the proxy, and their application for optimizing recovery plans. The project has ultimate multidisciplinary aspects, including reservoir engineering, data science and environment (as CO2 storage is included in the project). The project will be carried out by the experienced researcher who worked during his PhD on the application of data-driven techniques for resolving petroleum engineering problems. The experienced researcher will collaborate with supervisors with a strong background in reservoir simulation and optimization. The transfer of knowledge from the project will have a twofold benefit, to the host institution and to the researcher. Expected results have the potential to improve the knowledge about simulation calculability using new robust approaches.
