摘要: In some embodiments, systems, methods, and articles may operate to compute, in parallel, to determine values of unknowns in network equations associated with a network of sub-surface wells and at least one surface facility, for intra-well subdivisions of the network, and then for inter-well subdivisions of the network, wherein the computing is based on default values of the unknowns, or prior determined values of the unknowns. Additional activities may include constructing a distributed Jacobian matrix having portions comprising coefficients of the unknowns distributed among a number of processors, wherein each of the portions is distributed to a particular one of the processors previously assigned to corresponding ones of the subdivisions. The Jacobian matrix may be factored to provide factors and eliminate some of the unknowns. Back-solving is used to determine remaining unsolved ones of the unknowns, using the factors. Additional apparatus, systems, and methods are described.

摘要: A system and method to intelligently group seismic interpretation data, retrieved from an interpretation workflow, in an inventory tree based upon processing history records automatically captured during generation of volume and horizon datasets. As new volume and horizon datasets are created during the interpretation workflow, the relationships between the datasets are stored within system records. Inventory trees are then generated and/or updated based upon these records to intuitively display the relationships between the volume and horizon datasets.

摘要: Embodiments of the invention provide a method for classifying seismic attributes, including generating data points by cross plotting seismic attributes from a first data volume and a second data volume, encompassing at least one of the generated data points within a polygon, generating a reference line, determining an interpolation direction relative to the reference line, and assigning an attribute value to the at least one generated data point encompassed within the polygon wherein the assigned attribute value is interpolated based on the combination of its position to the reference line along the interpolation direction and the shape of the polygon.

摘要: A trip speed table is created containing records. Each record contains a step location, wherein a step is defined to be the location in a well of a deepest end of a drill string, a minimum trip speed for the step location, wherein the minimum trip speed is defined to be the maximum trip speed less than or equal to a default trip speed at which the drill string can be tripped without exceeding a fracture gradient or falling below a pore pressure at a slice depth, and the slice depth where the minimum trip speed for the step location occurred.

摘要: Systems and methods for monitoring, diagnosing and optimizing operation of a gas lift (GL) system, at least some of which include a method that includes collecting measured data representative of the GL system's state, storing the measured data, comparing the measured data to a well model's calculated data for the well and identifying likely conditions of the GL system based on mismatches between the measured data and the calculated data. The method further includes updating the model to reflect the likely conditions and selected corrections of the likely conditions, generating GL system performance curves using the updated model and presenting to a user actions recommended to achieve a GL system performance consistent with a GL system operating point on at least one of the GL system performance curves.

摘要: An example method includes receiving a data set containing combinations of drilling parameter values and operating condition values for a drilling system corresponding to each combination of drilling parameter values. At least one of a frequency and a duration of use may be determined for each of the combinations of drilling parameter values in the data set. For at least some of the combinations of drilling parameter values, a contour map identifying the combinations of drilling parameter values, the operating condition values corresponding to the combinations of drilling parameter values, and at least one of the frequency and the duration of use may be displayed for at least some of the combinations of drilling parameter values.

摘要: The disclosed embodiments include a method, apparatus, and computer program product for approximating multiphase flow reservoir production simulation for ranking multiple petro-physical realizations. One embodiment is a system that includes at least one processor and memory coupled to the at least one processor, the memory storing instructions that when executed by the at least one processor performs operations that includes generating a set of pseudo-phase production relative permeability curves; receiving production rate history data; receiving minimal simulation configuration parameters; performing flow simulation using the set of pseudo-phase production relative permeability curves for a set of petro-physical realizations; determining an optimal matching pseudo-phase production simulation result that best matches the production rate history data; and determining a ranking for the petro-physical realizations within the set of petro-physical realizations based on an area between a composite rate curve for a petro-physical realization and a historical rate curve.

摘要: Systems and methods for optimizing hardware resource utilization when processing variable-precision data are provided. Application data objects are processed using either a central processing unit (CPU) or the relatively lower precision data processing requirements of a dedicated math processing unit, e.g., a graphics processing unit (GPU), based on a level of precision determined for each application data object. The level of precision is used to calculate at least one bounding value for each application data object. The bounding value is compared to a selected precision threshold in order to determine whether the application data object can be processed by the GPU at a relatively lower level of precision without an undesirable loss of computational precision.
