Hydrocarbon production is usually restricted by excess water production in naturally fractured reservoirs. Polymergel injection is an efficient method to shut-off fracture conduits in water bearing zones. Efficiency of water shut-offmay decrease in time due to several reasons. Well diagnostic methods such as recovery plot, production history plotand decline curve analysis can be used to identify necessity to re-gel the well. Both of the surveillance methods requiresome sort of analytical modeling and may no...
Discrete fracture network modeling and gel injection simulation in fractured carbonates
Soltanieh, Ashkan; Akın, Serhat; Department of Petroleum and Natural Gas Engineering (2015)
Discrete Fracture Network (DFN) model is a recently developed, efficient approach to model fractured reservoirs. This model directly takes into account the geometry as well as conductivity and connectivity of fractures forming a network. It is a special tool that considers fluid flow and transport processes in fractured rock masses through a system of connected fractures. Because of fractured nature of carbonate reservoirs, hydrocarbon production is usually restricted by excess water production. Polymer gel...

Discrete fracture network modeling of Alaşehir geothermal field
Aydın, Hakkı; Akın, Serhat (null; 2019-02-13)
Understanding of fracture network and fracture characteristic properties is essential for an effective geothermal reservoir management.Discrete Fracture Network (DFN) is one of the widely used approach to characterize fractured reservoirs. DFN modeling approach usesfracture geometry, conductivity and connectivity to create a fracture network. In this study, DFN modeling is used to characterize Alaşehirgeothermal reservoir, which consists from heavily fractured marble and schist. Fracture parameters such as ...
Discrete Sizing of Steel Frames Using Adaptive Dimensional Search Algorithm
Hasançebi, Oğuzhan (Periodica Polytechnica Budapest University of Technology and Economics, 2019-01-01)
Adaptive dimensional search (ADS) algorithm is a recently proposed metaheuristic optimization technique for discrete structural optimization problems. In this study, discrete sizing optimization problem of steel frames is tackled using the ADS algorithm. An important feature of the algorithm is that it does not use any metaphor as an underlying principle for its implementation. Instead, the algorithm employs an efficient performance-oriented methodology at each iteration for convergence to the optimum or a ...
