SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CREATING 4D GUIDED HISTORY MATCHED MODELS
A system for creating a 4D guided history matched model may include a network of saturation sensors and a model processing hub. The saturation sensors may identify water production rates. The model processing hub may be in communication with the network of saturation sensors and may include a reservoir simulation model and a processor. The processor of the model processing hub may build a 4D saturation model, compare the reservoir simulation model and the 4D saturation model to generate a saturation Δ, calculate updated permeability distribution data, and update the reservoir simulation model with the updated permeability distribution data to create the 4D guided history matched model. A method of creating a 4D guided history matched model may include comparing a reservoir simulation model and a 4D saturation model, calculating updated permeability distribution data, and updating the reservoir simulation model to create the 4D guided history matched model.
SYSTEMS, APPARATUS, AND METHODS OF WATERSHED MODELING AND ASSESSMENT
A watershed modeling and assessment system may input, process, analyze, and store natural resource data in the characterization, analysis, and assessment of watershed and natural river and stream systems and to develop hydraulic models of flow in open channel systems. The system may enable analysis of overall watershed reach information and analysis, survey data, longitudinal profiles, cross-sections, channel material or substrate characterization, images, flow measurements, and Rosgen classification (stream type). The system may also enable development of detailed hydraulic models utilizing equations, techniques, and methods by using measured data, derived data, and estimated data. The system may also enable reports based on each of these individual components.
DEVICES AND METHODS FOR MEASURING TEMPERATURE, OXIDATION REDUCTION POTENTIAL, AND WATER-LEVEL WITHIN A SUBSURFACE FORMATION
A subsurface monitoring system and method is provided that includes a sensor array and a monitoring system in communication with the array. The sensor array may include several sensors, such as subsurface temperature sensors, water-level sensors, and oxidation reduction potential sensors may be disposed in a vertical and/or horizontal fence through the subsurface of the monitored site. The sensor array may measure, collect, and analyze the subsurface conditions and provide the measurements to a monitoring system. The monitoring system may provide access the measurements via a user interface for analysis of the measurements. In addition, the monitoring system may process the measurements to generate one or more graphs of information for better understanding of the conditions of the subsurface of the monitored site.
