Abstract: | In a previous paper, we developed a theoretical basis for parameterization of reservoir model parameters based on truncated
singular value decomposition (SVD) of the dimensionless sensitivity matrix. Two gradient-based algorithms based on truncated
SVD were developed for history matching. In general, the best of these “SVD” algorithms requires on the order of 1/2 the number
of equivalent reservoir simulation runs that are required by the limited memory Broyden–Fletcher–Goldfarb–Shanno (LBFGS) algorithm.
In this work, we show that when combining SVD parameterization with the randomized maximum likelihood method, we can achieve
significant additional computational savings by history matching all models simultaneously using a SVD parameterization based
on a particular sensitivity matrix at each iteration. We present two new algorithms based on this idea, one which relies only
on updating the SVD parameterization at each iteration and one which combines an inner iteration based on an adjoint gradient
where during the inner iteration the truncated SVD parameterization does not vary. Results generated with our algorithms are
compared with results obtained from the ensemble Kalman filter (EnKF). Finally, we show that by combining EnKF with the SVD-algorithm,
we can improve the reliability of EnKF estimates. |
