Multi-objective history matching of surfactant-polymer flooding

After modeling of sub-processes such as polymer flood model or phase behavior of our surfactant/oil/water system, through a multi-stage calibration algorithm, coreflood experimental data was used to build a thorough surfactant-polymer flood model where cumulative oil production and pressure profile were history matched simultaneously. Finally, we showed that our surfactant-polymer flood model has predictive capabilities with no need for ad hoc tuning of the model parameters by modeling two additional coreflood experiments where cumulative oil production and pressure profile matched those of experiments.
