Determining spacing between wellbores

Techniques for determining a spacing, such as one or more distances, between two or more wellbores formed from a terranean surface to a subterranean formation are described. In some aspects, a wellbore segment is determined for both a first and a second wellbore. One or more distances between the wellbore segments on the first and second wellbores, respectively, is determined. From the determined distance between the wellbore segments on the first and second wellbores, one or more distances between the first and second wellbores may be determined.

Multimode steering and homing system, method and apparatus

A boring tool is movable through the ground. A transmitter supported by the boring tool transmits an electromagnetic homing signal. A portable device monitors the electromagnetic homing signal and receives the electromagnetic homing signal in a homing mode for guiding the boring tool to a target position. A processor generates steering commands for guiding the boring tool based on a bore plan in a steering mode such that at least some positional error is introduced without using the electromagnetic homing signal. Switching from the steering mode to the homing mode is based on monitoring of the electromagnetic homing signal as the boring tool approaches the portable device to then guide the boring tool to the target position location in compensation for the positional error. Intermediate target positions are described as well as guiding the boring tool based on the homing signal so long as the portable device receives the signal.

Multi-Channel Machine Learning Model-Based Inversion

A method for identifying a collar using machine learning may include acquiring one or more measurements from one or more depth points within a wellbore including a tubular string, training a machine learning model using a training dataset to create a trained machine learning model, and identifying at least one hyperparameter using the trained machine learning model. The method may further include creating a synthetic model, wherein the synthetic model is defined by one or more pipe attributes, minimizing a mismatch between the one or more measurements and the synthetic model utilizing the at least one hyperparameter, updating the synthetic model to form an updated synthetic model, and repeating the minimizing the mismatch with the updated synthetic model until a threshold is met.

Enhanced two point flux approximation scheme for reservoir simulation

A method for performing a modified two point flux approximation scheme is disclosed. The method includes: obtaining a first pressure value for a first neighbor cell and a second pressure value for a second neighbor cell, where the first neighbor cell has a first value of a reservoir property and the second neighbor cell as a second value of the reservoir property; determining a first weight using the first pressure value and a second weight using the second pressure value; calculating a third value of the reservoir property as a weighted average of the first value and the second value; and applying the third value to the first neighbor cell.
