An ensemble of graph generative models for assisted history matching of the Brugge field case

arXiv:2611.12927v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Assisted history matching remains non-unique because many geological realisations can reproduce equivalent production responses with substantial differences between individual well matches. This ambiguity increases when a field comprises several depositional settings and modelling strategies. The paper applied a graph autoencoder approach to history matching of a benchmark Brugge field that comprises different depositional zones. Each stratigraphic zone is modelled with its dedicated generative model that comprises a joint latent space for optimisation history matching loops. Graph-based generators operate directly on the active cells of the corner-point grid, so its irregular geometry is handled without conversion to a regular lattice.
