    Abstract: Disclosed herein are example configurations of centrifuges used for analyzing properties of core samples extracted from sub-surface environments, in which the configuration of the centrifuges and rotations thereof improve fluid distribution within core samples held in the apparatus. In one aspect, a centrifuge includes a rotating arm and a holder coupled to a distal end of the rotating arm, the holder being configured to rotate independently of the rotating arm for analyzing fluid-rock interaction within the holder.

    Abstract: The disclosed embodiments include a system and method for performing a simulation to seismic process. In one embodiment, the system is configured to perform operations comprising constructing a petrophysical realization and selecting a candidate model for fluid flow simulation using the petrophysical realization. Empirical petrofacies definitions is applied on the selected candidate model and assigning relative permeability at each node of the petrofacies definitions of the selected candidate model. The operations performs flow simulation on selected candidate model and performs analysis on the results of the simulation on selected candidate model to verify rock type flow units. The dynamic and static simulation results are synthesized such that the combined data yield a measurable rock property that may be compared to seismic properties and used to calibrate subsequent iterations of the static earth model. The continued iteration of the workflow may then be undertaken with the updated/refined earth model.

    Abstract: The present disclosure is related to improvements in methods for evaluating and predicting responses of virtual sensors to determine formation and fluid properties as well as classifying the predicted as plausible or outlier responses that can indicate the need for maintenance of downhole physical sensors. In one aspect, a method includes detecting a change to a system of operating a wellbore to yield a determination, the system including a virtual sensor, the virtual sensor including a physical sensor placed in the wellbore for collecting one or more physical properties inside the wellbore; and based on the determination, performing one of retraining a machine learning model for predicting an output of the virtual sensor or predicting an output of the virtual sensor using the machine learning mode, the predicted output being indicative of at least one of sub-surface formation or fluid properties inside the wellbore.
