In order to determine the most influential geological parameters affecting the Gas Assisted Gravity Drainage process, sensitivity analysis was conducted through Design of experiments (DoE). DoE combines multi-level of each parameter to create many computer experiments evaluated by the compositional reservoir simulation. The factors that were adopted in this case are horizontal permeability, anisotropy ratio $K_{v}/K_{h}$, and porosity, all given for the entire reservoir. The most influential factors are diagnosed through building a statistical linear modeling, partial t-test, and Analysis of Variance (ANOVA). Firstly, more than 80 computer experiments (simulation job) were created by the Latin Hypercube Sampling approach. The simulation …show more content…
If a variable with horizontal straight line, it has no effect on the response and should be removed form the linear model, specifically the porosity variable. Based on the full linear model and as shown in Figure ~\ref{fig:sa1lm}, the reservoir porosity factor has no effect on the flow response as it has horizontal line of residual. Figure ~\ref{fig:sa1_lm} shows the basic diagnostic plots for the full linear model. The residuals vs. fitted plot is used to determine if the linear relationship between the predictor variables and outcome variables are captured by the model. An accurate model will have a residuals vs. fitted plot with a horizontal line with residuals above and below it without forming a patterns or groupings, as seen in the top left plot. The normal Q-Q plot, shown in the top right plot, is used to determine if the residuals are normally distributed. A good normal distribution will have a normal Q-Q plot which follows a straight line, as do our results. The Scale-Location plot shows if the residuals are spread equally along all ranges of the predictors. Ideally, the residuals should be randomly spread across all fitted values and not trend to one area, as ours do in the bottom left plot. Lastly, the Residuals vs Leverage plot determines how big of an impact outliers points have on the regression curve. Outliers away from the Cook’s distance will have a large impact, while those nearby will not. The bottom right plot shows that all but 3 residuals are

The slope of the linear fit of the data is 1.0049. What this tells me about the water is that it is increasing at a close to constant rate – while my results were not completely accurate because the slope of the line was not one it was fairly close to the target
5) Graph the equation you wrote in step four superimposed over the original data. Comment on how well or how poorly the equation fits the data.

My original model was able to pass most of the assumptions but not all. The error terms were normal (Figure 1) and there were no serious outliers, multicollinearity, or autocorrelation. However, the scatter plot of the predicted Y values and the residuals showed signs of heteroscedasticity, depicted in Figure 2. Given that, I transformed my dependent variable by squaring the values of the dependent variables. This corrected the heteroscedasticity, as shown in Figure 3 and the error terms still followed a normal distribution, as given by Figure 4. My final model now checked off all of the assumptions and I could move forward.
29. A distribution center for a chain of electronics supply stores fills and ships orders to retail outlets. A random sample of orders is selected as they are received and the dollar amount of the order (in thousands of dollars) is recorded, and then the time (in hours) required to fill the order and have it ready for shipping is determined. A scatterplot showing the times as the response variable and the dollar amounts (in thousands of dollars) as the predictor shows a linear trend. The least squares regression line is determined to be: yˆ= 0.76 +1.8x. A plot of the residuals versus the dollar amounts showed no pattern, and the following values were reported: Correlation r +0.90; R 2 = 0.81; standard deviation of the residuals is 0.48. What percentage of the variation in the times required to prepare an order for shipping is accounted for by the fitted line?
This assignment is written in fulfillment of the MKT/421 class at the University of Phoenix. The assignment calls for covering each of the three major phases in the simulation and to describe:
Project two in ECON-E 281 - APPLIED STAT FOR BUS & ECON II consisted of the students evaluating three independent variables such as Pickup Time, Delivery Time, and Mileage. The dependent variable was Cost. Only one independent variable could be selected when applying “ONLY” the p-value approach. The first step, I selected the Data then the Data Analysis tool. Next select Regression. The Input Y Range I selected the Cost data. The Input X range I selected the first independent variable Pickup time. Then check marked the boxes Labels, Confidence Level 95%, New Worksheet Ply, Residuals, and Residuals Plots. After checking the boxes I pressed OK. This gave me my first regression model. I used this process for the next two independent variables
You provided no discussion about TAXYPR, TGEG, and DMC in Table 4. How can you insert TGEG and DMC into the regression equation as explanatory variables?
One of the most highly debated topics in the gas industry is hydraulic fracking. News about it is on the radio, tv and all over the internet. The truth about hydraulic fracking can be hard to find but is imperative to know the truth. The U.S Energy Information Administration estimates that the United States has 2,119 trillion cubic feet of recoverable gas. They predict that 60% of this gas is “unconventional gas” that is stored in low permeability formations such as shale, coalbeds, and tight sands (Jackson, 2011).
Gas Exchange is a physical process. During that physical process diffusion is involved which are two main gases oxygen (O2) which is needed for respiration, Carbon dioxide (CO2) that is produced in respiration.
As seen in Figure 2 the haemolymph at each concentration closely follows the equivalence line and each reading at the different seawater concentrations is significantly different from every other data point (p<0.001).
Close to a third of the crude oil Canada produced from oil sands in 2014 used this technology Steam assisted gravity drainage (SAGD) [1].SAGD is an in-situ method that is used to extract oil from oil sand reserves. Developed by Roger Butler [2] SAGD is today one of the primary methods used to extract bitumen.
The issues inherent in the simulation are not textbook problems or questions in which answers are cut and dried and determined quickly.
