The Digital Twin for Manufacturing Optimization With Emphasis on Compositional Modeling

A digital twin is basically a digital illustration of a bodily system corresponding to a properly, pump, compressor, or a sequence of related objects. Typically, machine-learning algorithms can help in analyzing giant quantities of information inside domains corresponding to preventive upkeep.

The worth proposition of a digital twin is to have an entire overview of all fluid streams within the manufacturing and injection community to allow automation of manufacturing capability planning topic to present and future constraints. The digital resolution should be versatile, maintainable, correct, and with a fast turnaround time to handle dynamic modifications in market demand in addition to the availability aspect right down to the person wells.

Built-in asset fashions (IAM) have been round for the previous 2 many years or so. These fashions have grow to be extra refined but in addition require extra effort to keep up. The digital oil area (DOF) orchestrates information alternate between totally different data expertise methods to feed a calibrated IAM mannequin. An IAM/DOF system gives an up-to-date overview of all fluid streams to maximise worth creation topic to a lot of constraints.

Up to now, digital twins have primarily centered on mimicking small, well-defined methods, whereas IAM fashions have a tendency to handle the larger image. Can we take one of the best from each worlds? Do it is advisable to? And the way would you go about creating such a technical resolution?

Distinguished Lecturer Kristian Mogensen discusses a few of these elements on this SPE Dwell. If you mix totally different fluid methods collectively, you want a strong fluid description at properly degree. Complicating components might come up, corresponding to compositional variation at reservoir degree, gasoline coning in addition to breakthrough of injection gasoline. Many such technical particulars should be factored in, with out dropping sight of the general purpose: to create extra worth.

This video was first offered as an SPE Dwell occasion. Extra SPE Dwell movies might be discovered on the SPE Power Stream.
