Abstract: A method for training a predictive reservoir simulation in which high-confidence reservoir sample data is used to identify misallocated historical production data used in the simulation. A neural network algorithm is trained with high-confidence reservoir historical production data. High-confidence reservoir sample data is obtained by at least one sensor at a reservoir location over a time interval, after which the reservoir historical production data is parametrically varied over the time interval to determine a time-indexed discrepancy between the reservoir historical production data and the high-confidence reservoir sample data over the time interval. The time-indexed discrepancy and a defined threshold discrepancy are then used as inputs to a machine learning process to further train the neural network algorithm to identify reservoir historical production data whose discrepancy exceeds the threshold discrepancy and thereby constitutes misallocated historical production data.
