Eduardo Antonio Jimenez Arismendi has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Induced control excitation for enhanced reservoir flow characterization
    Patent number: 10233727
    Abstract: A system, method and a computer program product may be provided for characterizing natural resource subsurface attributes and compositions. The system prescribes alterations of one or more controls of a natural resource. The system applies the altered controls to the natural resource wells. The system collects measurement data of the natural resource wells that responds to the applied altered controls. The system determines, based on the collected measurement data, the natural resource subsurface attributes and compositions that pertain to the natural resource.
    Type: Grant

  • Reduced space clustering representatives and its application to long term prediction
    Patent number: 10082006
    Abstract: In one embodiment, a technique is provided to cluster model prior realizations into flow-equivalent sets. Thereby, far fewer representatives are identified from each cluster that can still predict the same range of future production reliably. Only representatives of each realization cluster that indicate unique forecasts will undergo the computationally expensive process of history matching.
