Abstract: The disclosure notably relates to a computer-implemented method for multiperiod optimization of oil and/or gas production. The method comprises providing a controlled dynamical system. The controlled dynamical system describes the evolution over time of a state of an oil and/or gas reservoir. The method further comprises providing a time-dependent admissible set of controls. The controls describe actions respecting constraints for controlling oil and/or gas flow and/or pressure. The method further comprises providing time-dependent observations of the content of the reservoir. The method further comprises optimizing, with respect to the state of the reservoir, the controls and the observations, an expected value over a given time span of an objective production function of the state, the controls and the observations. This constitutes an improved solution for oil and/or gas production.

Abstract: The invention notably relates to computer-implemented designing of a geological simulation grid configured for hydrocarbon flow simulation in a geological environment. The designing of the geological simulation grid comprises providing (S10) a geometrical grid having cells and representing the geological environment; providing (S20) a structural model that represents geological surfaces of the geological environment, the geological surfaces comprising one or more geological surfaces each in contact with at least one other geological surface; and determining (S30), for each geological surface of the structural model, pairs of cells that represent the geological surface, the pairs of cells determined for at least one respective geological surface in contact with at least one respective other geological surface each including a first cell and a second cell located both on a same side of the at least one respective other geological surface. This improves the field of geological simulation.

Abstract: The invention notably relates to a computer-implemented method for designing a geological simulation grid, the method comprising: providing a geometrical grid that conforms to a set of geological structures of a geological environment; providing a geometrical surface that represents a geological surface of the geological environment, the geological surface being outside the set of geological structures; identifying geometrical structures of the geometrical grid that each correspond to a respective location of the geometrical surface; and transferring to each identified geometrical structure one or more respective parameters, each parameter being a value of a respective property of the geological surface. This improves the field of geological simulation.

Abstract: A process for supporting mobile-site communication with a fixed-site in a wireless communication system wherein the mobile-site includes a controller and a plurality of transceivers is described. The process includes, at a mobile-site, assigning and programming at least one transceiver from the plurality of transceivers to monitor at least one first channel on at least one fixed-site, receiving a message on the at least one first channel identifying a call for one or more subscriber units operable in the mobile-site, assigning a second channel for the call on the mobile-site and informing the one or more subscriber units affected by the call of the assigned second channel of the call, and propagating the call on the assigned second channel to/from the subscriber units affected by the call.
