EP 23 · Accelerating field optimization for Shell in the Neuquén Basin using Novi Labs Machine Learning

from The Novi AI Roundup · host Novi Labs

How do you optimize field development with limited data? In this episode of The Novi AI Roundup, we explore how Shell and Novi Labs used machine learning to accelerate development planning in Argentina’s Neuquén Basin. Drawing from the URTeC 2022 paper “Accelerating Field Optimization for Shell in the Neuquén Basin using Novi Labs Machine Learning”, we break down how basin-specific models were built with sparse data, what drove uplift in Vaca Muerta, and how operators can apply ML to make faster, more confident decisions.This podcast episode is based on the technical paper “Accelerating Field Optimization for Shell in the Neuquén Basin using Novi Labs Machine Learning”, presented at URTeC 2022 in collaboration with Shell. Authors: DP. Zannitto, C. Kosa. Download the full paper here.
