The petroleum production simulation model is a reliable and commonly used tool by petroleum engineers in field operation and management. Production history matching is a vital link while building and completing the simulation model such that it accurately reflects reservoir behavior. In addition to the methods such as direct modification and automatic/assisted history matching, the authors propose a solution to improve the efficiency of history matching by applying the results of nonlinear signal processing methods and data point mapping method through interpolation algorithm. The method is applied for 3 water injection wells, 10 production wells at Miocene reservoir of the water flooding field X in Cuu Long Basin. The results show that the water-cut parameter of 7/10 production wells really improved in comparison to the initial model. The error of oil and liquid cumulative production in the simulation model compared to reality data respectively decreases from -2.8% to -0.3% and from +11.7% to less than 5%.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
