The agreement with Equinor (Statoil's new name since May 2018) aims to establish the conditions for selection and funding of scientific and technological research involving collaboration between scientists working in public or private research or teaching institutions in the State of São Paulo and/or scientists from Equinor.
The present proposal is divided into four research lines, namely: 1) Production Optimization (RL1) - Reservoir Modeling; 2) Production Optimization (RL2) - Artificial Lift and Flow Assurance; 3) EOR/IOR (RL3); and 4) Water Handling (RL4). In the Reservoir Modeling plan, the initial application (first years of project) will be in a reservoir with the characteristics of the Peregrino field …
The Brazilian pre-salt reservoir was responsible for more than 70% of the nationalproduction in 2022 (The Brazilian National Agency of Petroleum, Natural Gas and Biofuels).Many pre-salt fields are under development and new discovery areas are still taking place. Duringthe exploration phase of the field, seismic data is the first available information for geologicalinterpretations to guide…
The main objective will be to design an hybrid model that combines the input data from the injector system and the producer wells. The output sequences will consider all the variables in the complete producer wells. The reasearcher will work considering the reservoir as a whole system.The development of Machine Learning models for reservoir management includes typical methods (radial basi…
Although continuous advances in the computational domain were observed in the past decades, numerical simulation is still challenging when applied for some kind of fields, due some characteristics: level of heterogeneity, field size, necessity to use compositional simulation, among others. When performing probabilistic procedures that demand high number of simulation runs, the time spent …

This research involves creating a methodology to identify vugs, pores, and fractures based on the data generated from the CT scan (probably using existing libraries). It also involves translating this data, in an automated way, into a FE mesh that is readable by the NeoPZ environment (Devloo, 1997). This task can be achieved using available computational geometry tools such as Gmsh and CG…
This Work Package (WP) is a Ph.D. research project to explore new mathematical andcomputational ideas for high-performance computational applications for reservoir simulation,aiming possible implementations in the Open Porous Media (OPM) initiative [1], aninternational project devoted to develop and disseminate open-source alternatives for realisticreservoir simulation.Reservoir simulatio…
This post-doctorate research work plan focuses on two primary tasks in the context of the Energy Production Innovation Center (EPIC) involving Equinor/Unicamp/Fapesp.The first task is the use of image processing and machine learning techniques to analyze computed tomography (CT) images, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and borehole images (BHI) in order to detect and characterize structu…
