    Integrated Field Management workflows - Reservoir Coupling

    Integrated asset models are created by connecting together existing subsurface and surface simulation models. This can deliver numerous benefits such as better understanding and representation of production system constraints enabling better field planning, production forecasting and full field optimization.

    SLB technologies offer a modern method of connecting and controlling subsurface and surface models using INTERSECT Field Management (IXFM). IXFM offers unique capabilities to couple multiple INTERSECT reservoir models and multiple surface network models. All the coupled models can be controlled and actioned by Field Management (FM) thus allowing all the capabilities and benefits of FM to be applied to the Integrated Model. 

    The workflow presented in this course is focused on reservoir coupling. INTERSECT can couple multiple reservoir simulations to enable balancing control, resource management, and reporting across several isolated reservoirs. Most of the existing Field Management capabilities are available even when coupling to more than one reservoir simulation.
