Oil field production prediction and regulation based on bigdata analysis
- Oilfield Underground Aquifer Injection
Monitoring
Water contamination is a primary concern in a region where water and petroleum play such vital roles in the economy, and where both industry and regulatory agencies pay close attention to environmental quality. In this research, we built a Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) based prototype using R3 Corda. Its purpose applies in the oil & gas underground injection control (UIC) operations for the underground aquifer protection.
Preliminary results: ICPS 2021
- Oil field
healthy evaluation by ensemble learning
With the majority voting algorithm, we do not predict the oil production capacity only by the oil data, but also the water and pressure data. As a result, the final confidence of the prediction will be much higher, compare to the previous method.
Preliminary results: Working on this
- Computational fault location detection
algorithm based on the oil field production log data
Based on the oil field production log data, we can find out the behavior relationship between each pair of the drilling points. By combining this relationship map with the geology information, we can develop the algorithm to detect the fault location in the oil field.

Solar farm adaptive control
- Heliostat control to prevent transient
thermal flux
The solar power tower attracts increasing attentions in recent years in renewable power generation. Heat transfer fluid is heated by focusing the concentrated solar radiation on a tower-mounted receiver, and then is used to drive the turbine, and thereafter generate electric power. One of the challenges in solar power tower operation is due to sudden thermal changes on the surface of the central receiver.
Preliminary results: GreenTech 2019
- Geographic
information based heliostat control.
Based on the data from geographic information system, we can better predict the weather change and increase the heliostat control efficiency.
