Our optimization study and benchmarks (all numbers are exact solver runs not surrogate prediction)

Volve field · 9 wells · 5 control intervals · 680,400 grid cells

Our best plan $533.1M NPV in OPM Flow, +7.3 % vs Everest
Everest's best $496.9M NPV in OPM Flow
NPV of our best plan vs Everest: The best NPV of each Everest start, and the plan the surrogate found without Flow, checked in OPM Flow. Every number is an OPM Flow run.

What-if accuracy: The surrogate's NPV against OPM Flow on runs it never trained on.
What-if accuracy. The surrogate's NPV against OPM Flow on runs it never trained on.
Trade-off plans: Plans that keep the best NPV and change the other objectives, checked in OPM Flow.
Trade-off plans. Plans that keep the best NPV and change the other objectives, checked in OPM Flow.
The optimization: The surrogate searches the controls without Flow; the curves are the field cumulative oil of every plan it tried, and the best plan's OPM Flow run.
