Publication number: 20230323772Abstract: Embodiments for generating a reservoir performance forecast are provided. The embodiments may be executed by a computer system. In one embodiment, a method includes obtaining inflow performance relationship data generated from a physics-based subsurface-surface coupled simulation model having a surface, a subsurface, and one or more wells fluidly connecting the subsurface to the surface. The inflow performance relationship data comprises performance data for at least one phase of fluid for each well. The method also includes generating a performance forecast for the reservoir using a subsurface simulator and a surface simulator. The subsurface simulator uses the inflow performance relationship data to represent the subsurface during generation of the performance forecast, and the performance forecast satisfies constraints solved by the surface simulator. In one embodiment, a method does not utilize a surface simulator.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 12, 2022Publication date: October 12, 2023Applicant: CHEVRON U.S.A.

Publication number: 20230318728Abstract: To improve integrity of time synchronization, a node in a safety rated system verifies that its clock remains synchronized to another clock. Two adjacent, time-synchronized nodes transmit diagnostic messages to each other at an agreed upon interval and generate timestamps when the diagnostic message is received from the other node. The nodes then transmit their respective timestamp back to the sending node. Clock drift is detected by comparing a difference between the two timestamps at which the messages were received against a threshold. To avoid accidental detection of clock drift, a difference in transmission delays between the two nodes is stored in a FIFO buffer. Each node monitors the average of the data in the FIFO buffer. If the average deviates from the target value by too great a value, then the node determines the values of the clocks have skewed beyond an acceptable range and generates a fault condition.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 30, 2022Publication date: October 5, 2023Inventors: Yanbin Zhang, Xiaobo Peng, Sikai Zhang, Steven T.
