Abstract:

This article presents an approach aimed at the sequential application of mathematical models of different complexity (simple to complex) for modeling the development of a gas field. The proposed methodology allows the use of simple models as regularizers for the more complex ones. The main purpose of the applied mathematical models is to describe the energy state of the reservoir — reservoir pressure. In this paper, we propose an algorithm for adapting the model, which allows constructing reservoir pressure maps for the gas field, as well as estimating the dynamics of reservoir pressure with a possible output for determining the position of the gas-water contact level.
