Short Term Petroleum Production Optimization by Column Generation - Applied to the Troll West Oil Rim |
Bjørn Nygreen, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Department of Industrial Economics and Technology Management, Trondheim, Norway, NO 7491 Vidar Gunnerud, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Department of engineering cybernetics, Trondheim, Norway, N= 7491 Nina Walberg, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Department of Industrial Economics and Technology Management Randi Vestbø, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Department of Industrial Economics and Technology Management Bjarne A. Foss, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Department of engineering cybernetics, Trondheim, Norway, NO 7491 The Troll West oil field infrastructure at the Norwegian continental shelf has a structure that makes it possible to decompose its short term production optimization model. The presentation will show how the model is solved to near optimality by column generation, where the discrete and nonlinear subproblems are solved by standard MIP solvers. |
03h55 PM- 04h20 PM |
The Simulation and Optimization of Energy Technology to Address Climate Change |
Gary Howorth, Independent Consultant, 1626 Colonial Hills Drive, Mclean, VA, USA, 22102 The optimization of environmental/energy issues within Climate change is an incredibly difficult, especially when coupled with politics. The author will present results from a simulation approach that uses a combination of methods including network and complexity approaches. A comparison with work on coupled oscillators and NK landscapes will be used to discuss optimization issues associated with the current model. |
04h20 PM- 04h45 PM |
Analysis of the Impact of CO2 Emissions Caps and Pricing on New Oil Fields Development |
Yuri Alcocer, GERAD, Global Energy Modeling Group, GERAD, Montreal, QC, Canada Olivier Bahn, GERAD, HEC Montréal, Méthodes quantitatives de gestion, Montréal, Canada This presentation looks to address the impact of different caps and prices scenarios of CO2 emissions on new oil fields development projects. For this analysis, 2 models are used: A well count model that forecasts the number of drilled wells and an upstream CO2 emissions model that forecasts the total emissions due to oil production. |
