Complementary Workflows for Analyzing Multiphase Flowback and Post-flowback Production Data In Unconventional Reservoirs
DownloadFall 2017
The application of horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing techniques has resulted in the economic production of previously inaccessible hydrocarbon trapped in very-low permeability reservoirs such as Shale gas/oil, tight gas and tight oil. Although the economic production of these...

A great deal of statistical research has been done in high- and ultrahigh-dimensional settings in recent years. Regularized approaches have been extensively used in dealing with high-dimensional datasets. It is widely acknowledged that robust procedures are important to deal with the influence of...

Many standard approaches for conducting statistical inference on regression parameters rely heavily on parametric assumptions and asymptotic results. The wild bootstrap (Mammen, 1993) was developed as a nonparametric means to estimate a sampling distribution and is particularly useful when...

By integrating universal function approximators into existing simulation software, it is possible to reduce the cost of repeating simulations and thereby increase research output. In this thesis, support vector regression, random forest and artificial neural networks are deployed as universal...
