20130304679 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR USING AN ARTIFICIAL NEURAL NETWORK TO SIMULATE PIPE HYDRAULICS IN A RESERVOIR SIMULATOR - A method for implementing a reservoir simulator is described. The method comprises developing training data by performing a calculation on an initial set of input data relating to reservoir conditions to obtain corresponding output data; training an artificial neural network (“ANN”) to perform the calculation using the training data; and using the trained ANN to perform the calculation on a second set of input data to obtain corresponding output data for use by the reservoir simulator in performing simulations. | 11-14-2013 |
