AI-Driven Reservoir Modeling & Optimization

Wednesday, 21 October
Room 370 ADBE
Technical Session
This session highlights the latest advances in artificial intelligence and machine learning for reservoir modeling and optimization, including physics-informed approaches, thermodynamic property prediction, data-driven forecasting, and integrated subsurface–surface workflows. Contributions demonstrate how autonomous and intelligent systems can enhance decision-making, improve prediction accuracy, and enable more efficient reservoir management across a range of applications, from geosteering to CO2 EOR and field-scale production optimization.
