Determination of oil well production performance using artificial neural network (ANN) linked to the particle swarm optimization (PSO) tool

“…Production at a constant well rate plays a major role in current analytical approaches to study the productivity of horizontal wells in closed reservoirs [22,37].…”

Use of quality maps in reservoir management

“…However, this approach is not recommended for reservoirs with strong heterogeneities. The method studied here was based on the work of Babu and Odeh (1989), who considered a uniform flux solution. In this method, the "quality" was taken as the production rate of a well positioned in a specific location and was given by the following equation (Nakajima and Schiozer, 2003): …”

Generalized inflow performance relationships for horizontal gas wells

“…Pressure decline curves, if available, can be used to calculate the average pressure as a function of time, and therefore to obtain a production history. Babu and Odeh (1989) presented a horizontal well IPR model under the pseudo-steady-state condition. The model treated the reservoir as a box-shaped drainage area with horizontal well-drilled parallel to one side of the reservoir.…”
