Intelligent Data Evaluation & Analysis; IDEA is the most comprehensive and best known AI&DM engine
for intelligent, data driven modeling in the industry. It has been successfully used in developing workflows and intelligent
models for a variety of E&P applications including reservoir characterization, well testing, drilling operation, surface
facility modeling, wellbore modeling to name a few. Some of the workflows that have been developed using IDEA
include:
GEOSCIENCES:
Developing Synthetic Well Logs, including Magnetic Resonance Logs from Conventional Logs.
Core-Log Correlation for Clastic as well as Carbonate Formations. Rock Typing from SCAL data, Correlating
Well Logs with Vertical Seismic Profiles (VSP). Correlating VSP to 3D Seismic and Cross-Well
Tomography …
PRODUCTION:
Developing EOS and Predicting GOR from fluid data. Modeling Separator & Central Compressor
Station Facilities. Wellbore Modeling. Fluid Flow Through Pipes (Flow Regimes).
Artificial Lift. Optimizing Choke Size …
RESERVOIR:
Correlation of Production Data with Well Logs & Seismic. Production Modeling & Forecasting.
Up-scaling. Surrogate Reservoir Models for Real-Time Reservoir Simulation and Modeling. Building
complete reservoir models from production data and well logs.
