Abstract:In Steam-Assisted Gravity Drainage (SAGD) recovery, optimal real-time steam allocation from a shared steam generator to the physically coupled multi-pads can significantly improve long-term performance goals. However, multi-pad real-time optimization (RTO) with first-principle models can be computationally intensive. Furthermore, general-purpose optimization algorithms in RTO do not consider the future state beyond the prediction horizons to be optimized and treat the optimization problem as a long-term optimi… Show more
