    Abstract: A kinetic modeling method to describe/model the petroleum fluid evolution with respect to its bulk compositions and the isotope compositions. The bulk compositions are detailed to individual n-alkanes, while the isotope compositions are detailed to individual isotopomer within in each isotopologue of a given n-alkane. This provides a systematic solution to assess fluid maturity and to elucidate the charge history of a reservoir, based on the distribution of n-alkanes and detailed isotope composition of each n-alkanes.

    Abstract: Various aspects described herein relate to a system that utilized deep learning and neural networks to estimate/predict an amount of natural resource production in a well given a set of parameters indicative of physical changes to the well. In one aspect, a virtual flow meter includes memory having computer-readable instructions stored therein and one or more processors configured to execute the computer-readable instructions to receive one or more input parameters indicative of physical changes to at least one well; apply the one or more input parameters to a trained neural network architecture; and determine one or more outputs of the trained neural network architecture, the one or more outputs corresponding to predicted fluid output of the at least one well.

    Abstract: A method for producing heavy oil, the method including testing a plurality of samples either from a reservoir play or simulating a reservoir play in a temperature and pressure controlled gravity drainage experiment. Test injection fluids are injected into the samples at a reservoir temperature and pressure and Cumulative Oil Production (COP) or Recovery Factor (RF) or similar feature measured over time. An injection profile is obtained by selecting n injection fluids based on a best COP or RF at a given time Tn, wherein n is a number of fluid injection stages and switching to an n+1 injection fluid when a rate of change (ROC) in the COP or RF drops at least 25%-75%, but preferably 40-60% or 50%. The injection profile is then implemented in the reservoir to produce heavy oil. Optimized injection profiles for certain reservoirs are also provided.

    Abstract: Drilling a sidetrack in an open hole bore in a hydrocarbon reservoir of acid-soluble formation, e.g. carbonate formation, the creation of a sidetrack (11) in an open hole bore (10 for production of hydrocarbons from a carbonate rock formation (2). Acid is delivered to the location (6) where a sidetrack is to be created; the acid dissolves away the formation and creates a trench (7) from which the sidetrack (11) may be drilled.

    Abstract: Implementations described and claimed herein provide systems and methods for electronic discovery management. In one implementation, a staging path from source(s) to a staging area in a target location is generated automatically in connection with a collection request. Criteria for the collection request is obtained automatically and an encrypted export key for the collection request is captured using first robot(s). An export of a responsive data collection is obtained automatically from the source(s) using the first robot(s). The responsive data collection is exported along the staging path based on the criteria and the encrypted export key. An image of the responsive data collection is generated in the target location by sending parameter(s) to second robot(s), and the collection request is fulfilled by triggering a compression of the image of the responsive data collection into forensic container(s) using the second robot(s).
