Both processes are based on a mapping method to displace vertices of a grid to desired locations without changing the grid topology. In the gridding process, a grid that can capture stratigraphical complexity is first generated in an unfaulted space. The vertices of the grid are then displaced back to the original faulted space to become a reservoir simulation grid. The resulting reversely mapped grid has a mapping structure that allows fast and easy fault juxtaposition modification. This feature avoids the process of updating the structural framework and regenerating the reservoir properties, which may be time-consuming. To facilitate juxtaposition updates within an assisted history matching workflow, several parameterized fault throw adjustment methods are introduced.

It is to align the reservoir model with the measured data. However, it remains challenging since the solution is not unique and the implementation is expensive. The traditional approach relies on trial and error, which are exhaustive and labor-intensive. In this study, we propose a new workflow utilizing Bayesian Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) to automatically and accurately perform history matching. We deliver four novelties within the workflow: 1) the use of multi-resolution low-fidelity models to guarantee high-quality matching, 2) updating the ranges of priors to assure convergence, 3) the use of Long-Short Term Memory (LSTM) network as a low-fidelity model to produce continuous time-response, and 4) the use of Bayesian optimization to obtain the optimum low-fidelity model for Bayesian MCMC runs.\u0000 We utilize the first SPE comparative model as the physical and high-fidelity model. It is a gas injection into an oil reservoir case, which is the gravity-dominated process. The coarse low-fidelity model manages to provide updated priors that increase the precision of Bayesian MCMC. The Bayesian-optimized LSTM has successfully captured the physics in the high-fidelity model. The Bayesian-LSTM MCMC produces an accurate prediction with narrow uncertainties. The posterior prediction through the high-fidelity model ensures the robustness and precision of the workflow.

The goal is to compute full stress tensor field estimates (principal stresses and orientations) that are maximally compatible with observations within the constraints of the model assumptions, thereby extending point-wise, incomplete partial stress measurement to a simulated full formation stress field, as well as a rough assessment of the associated error. We use the Perch site, located in Otsego Country, Michigan, as our case study. Input data consists of partial stress tensor information inferred from in-situ borehole tests, geophysical well logs and processing of seismic data. A static earth model of the site was developed, and geomechanical simulation functionality of the open-source MATLAB Reservoir Simulation Toolbox (MRST) used to model the stress field. Adjoint-based nonlinear optimization was used to adjust boundary conditions and material properties to calibrate simulated results to observations. Results were interpreted through a Bayesian framework.\u0000 The focus of this article is to demonstrate how the fully automatic calibration procedure works and discuss the results obtained but does not attempt a detailed analysis of the stress field in the context of the proposed CO2 storage initiatives. Our work is part of a larger effort to non-invasively determine in-situ stresses in deep formations considered for CO2 storage. Guided by previously published research on geomechanical model calibration, our work presents a novel calibration approach supporting a potentially large number of linear or nonlinear calibration parameters, in order to produce results optimally agreeing with available measurements and thus extend partial point-wise estimates to full tensor fields compatible with the physics of the site.","PeriodicalId":11146,"journal":{"name":"Day 1 Tue, October 26, 2021","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76278788","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The current trend for hardware architectures is toward heterogeneous systems with multi-core CPUs accelerated by GPUs to get high computing power. The demand for fast solution of Geoscience simulations coupled with new computing architectures drives the need for challenging parallel algorithms. Such applications based on partial differential equations, requires to solve large and sparse linear system of equations. This work makes a step further in Matrix Powers Kernel (MPK) which is a crucial kernel in solving sparse linear systems using communication-avoiding methods. This class of methods deals with the degradation of performances observed beyond several nodes by decreasing the gap between the time necessary to perform the computations and the time needed to communicate the results. The proposed work consists of a new formulation for distributed MPK kernels for the cluster of GPUs where the pipeline communications could be overlapped by the computation. Also, appropriate data reorganization decreases the memory traffic between processors and accelerators and improves performance. The proposed structure is based on the separation of local and external components with different layers of interface nodes-due to the MPK algorithm-. The data is restructured in a way where all the data required by the neighbor process comes contiguously at the end, after the local one. Thanks to an assembly step, the contents of the messages for each neighbor are determined. Such data structure has a major impact on the efficiency of the solution, since it permits to design an appropriate communication scheme where the computation with local data can occur on the GPUs and the external ones on the CPUs. Moreover, it permits more efficient inter-process communication by an effective overlap of the communication by the computation in the asynchronous pipeline way. We validate our design through the test cases with different block matrices obtained from different reservoir simulations : fractured reservoir dual-medium, black-oil two phase-flow, and three phase-flow models. The experimental results demonstrate the performance of the proposed approach compared to state of the art. The proposed MPK running on several nodes of the GPU cluster provides a significant performance gain over equivalent Sparse Matrix Vector product (SpMV) which is already optimized and provides better scalability.","PeriodicalId":11146,"journal":{"name":"Day 1 Tue, October 26, 2021","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80946299","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We introduce a new approach that couples hydrodynamics and poro-mechanics with dual-porosity flow diagnostics to analyse how poro-mechanics could impact reservoir dynamics in naturally fractured reservoirs without significantly increasing computational overhead.\u0000 Our new poro-mechanical informed dual-porosity flow diagnostics account for steady-state and singlephase flow conditions in the fractured medium while the fracture-matrix fluid exchange is approximated using a physics-based transfer rate constant which models two-phase flow using an analytical solution for spontaneous imbibition or gravity drainage. The deformation of the system is described by the dualporosity poro-elastic theory, which is based on mixture theory and micromechanics to compute the effective stresses and strains of the rock matrix and fractures. The solutions to the fluid flow and rock deformation equations are coupled sequentially. The governing equations for fluid flow are discretised using a finite volume method with two-point flux-approximation while the governing equations for poro- mechanics are discretised using the virtual element method. The solution of the coupled system considers stress-dependent permeabilities for fractures and matrix. Our framework is implemented in the open source MATLAB Reservoir Simulation Toolbox (MRST).\u0000 We present a case study using a fractured carbonate reservoir analogue to illustrate the integration of poro-mechanics within the dual-porosity flow diagnostics framework. The extended flow diagnostics calculations enable us to quickly screen how the dynamics in fractured reservoirs (e.g. reservoir connectivity, sweep efficiency, fracture-matrix transfer rates) are affected by the complex interactions between poro-mechanics and fluid flow where changes in pore pressure and effective stress modify petrophysical properties and hence impact reservoir dynamics.\u0000 Due to the steady-state nature of the calculations and the effective coupling strategy, these calculations do not incur significant computational overheads. They hence provide an efficient complement to traditional reservoir simulation and uncertainty quantification workflows as they enable us to assess a broader range of reservoir uncertainties (e.g. geological, petrophysical and hydro-mechanical uncertainties). The capability of studying a much broader range of uncertainties allows the comparison and ranking from a large ensemble of reservoir models and select individual candidates for more detailed full-physics reservoir simulation studies without compromising on assessing the range of uncertainties inherent to fractured reservoirs.","PeriodicalId":11146,"journal":{"name":"Day 1 Tue, October 26, 2021","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79257381","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The grid generation method is coupled with an iterative acute mesh reconstruction technique, to construct essentially acute triangulations, while satisfying quite general geometric constraints. For well aligned grids control points are constrained to the well trajectory and protection circles are used, whereas for boundary aligned grids halo construction is performed. Unstructured Delaunay triangulations (DT) have the desirable locally orthogonal perpendicular bisectional (PEBI) property, required by the industry standard two-point flux approximation for consistency for isotropic fields. The PEBI property can only be exploited if such grids are comprised of acute simplexes, with circumcentres located inside their respective elements. The method presented enables acute DT layered mesh generation while honoring internal boundaries and wells in a two dimensional space. A dual (Voronoi) grid derived from a feature honored simplicial mesh is then projected in the vertical direction generating 2.5D PEBI grids. Effectiveness of the method to construct acute PEBI grids honoring geological objects and complex wells is demonstrated by meshing representative reservoir geometries. Numerical results are presented that verify consistency of the two-point flux on the resulting boundary-aligned acute PEBI grids. Development of an unstructured grid generation method which 1) Automates interior boundary alignment, 2) Honors features with respect to control point and/or control volume, and 3) Generates acute PEBI grids for reservoir geometries is presented. A unique workflow is presented to generate boundary aligned acute PEBI grids for complex geometries. Development of boundary aligned grids that honor both geological objects and multilateral complex wells, together with mesh reconstruction to ensure circumcenter containment is presented.

Unlike the standard multiscale methods, MsRSB relies on iterative smoothing to find the multiscale basis functions in an adaptive manner, giving it the ability to naturally adjust to various complex grid orientations often encountered in real-life industrial applications. In this work, we investigate the scalability of MsRSB on various state-of-the-art parallel architectures, including multi-core systems and GPUs. While MsRSB is — like most other multiscale methods — directly amenable to parallelization, the dependence on a smoother to find the basis functions creates unique control- and data-flow patterns. These patterns require careful design and implementation in parallel environments to achieve good scalability. We extend the work on parallel multiscale methods in Manea et al. (2016) and Manea and Almani (2019) to map the MsRSB special kernels to the shared-memory parallel multi-core and GPU architectures. The scalability of our optimized parallel MsRSB implementation is demonstrated using highly heterogeneous 3D problems derived from the SPE10 Benchmark (Christie and Blunt 2001). Those problems range in size from millions to tens of millions of cells. The multi-core implementation is benchmarked on a shared memory multi-core architecture consisting of two packages of Intel's Cascade Lake Xeon® Gold 6246 CPU, while the GPU implementation is benchmarked on a massively parallel architecture consisting of Nvidia Volta V100 GPUs. We compare the multi-core implementation to the GPU implementation for both the setup and solution stages.

To model the fracture conductivity reduction with depletion, we traditionally use a single monotonic relationship between fracture conductivity and pressure, which is proper for a single proppant concentration but obviously hard to describe the situation in the horizontal wells with complex concentration distributions. This paper is to present a new method to speed-up the calibration process of well performance models with multi-million cells and its two applications in the Wolfcamp reservoir in the Delaware Basin.\u0000 To study well performance and completion effectiveness of 3000 horizontal wells over University Lands acreage in the Permian Basin, we have built a series of well performance models with complex fracture networks (SPE 189855 and 194367). We have used those models to methodically investigate the drivers of well completion parameters and well spacing on well performance and field development value (URTeC 554). In the process of building multiple robust well performance models, we found out it is hard and time-consuming to calibrate a well performance model with multi-million cells based upon a single correlation between fracture conductivity and pressure.\u0000 We first modeled the complex fracture networks and fracture conductivity distributions based upon the historical completion pumping data; we then developed multiple correlations to characterize fracture conductivity reduction and closure behaviors with pressure depletion based upon initial fracture conductivities (as the result of proppant type, size, and concentration) and reservoir geomechanical properties. We found out that this method significantly reduced our model calibration time. We then applied our method to multiple case studies in the Permian Basin to test and improve the method.\u0000 We have thus developed a method to mimic the fracture conductivity reduction and closure behavior in the horizontal wells with complex fracture networks. The paper will layout the theoretical foundation and detail our method to develop the multiple correlations to model fracture conductivity reduction and fracture closure behaviors in the horizontal well performance models in the unconventional reservoirs. We will then show two case studies to illustrate how we have applied our method to speed up the model calibration process.\u0000 Based upon the multiple applications into our model calibration process, we have concluded that the method is very effective to calibrate the well performance model with complex fracture networks.\u0000 The method can be used for engineers to simplify and speedup calibrating horizontal well performance models.

This heat recovery involves three tightly coupled processes: thermal, hydraulic and mechanical which interacts with each other and in turn affects the energy production. The local temperature field would be disturbed by injected fuild, resulting in thermal/poroelastic responses near the hydraulic fractured area which are the dominant factors of fluid flow. In this paper, the three-dimensional (3D) Embedded Discrete Fracture Model (EDFM) was adopted to describe the geometry of the fracture and simulate fluid flow and heat transfer between fractures and the matrix, while mechanics, including displacement of the strong discontinuity (fractures), was solved by the 3D eXtended Finite Element Method (XFEM). With the capability of modeling fractures of arbitrary shapes within a 3D reservoir domain using 3D EDFM-XFEM, a coupled THM model was developed based on the unconditionally stable fixed-stress split sequential-implicit method, where the fluid flow/heat transfer module and mechanics module are solved iteratively until convergence within a time step. Fluid flow/heat transfer and XFEM with internal/external tractions are both validated by comparison with existing simulators. We conducted simulations for two synthetic geothermal reservoir heat recovery cases to investigate the effects of the injection temperature and boundary traction condition on the production temperature and fracture deformation. The results indicate that the fracture aperture and permeability is sensitive to temperature variation and hence impacts the production rate/temperature. Thermal strain might be the dominant factor of rock deformation, especially in the shallow depth where geostress is at a low level.","PeriodicalId":11146,"journal":{"name":"Day 1 Tue, October 26, 2021","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-10-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82529061","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
