Critical evaluation of infill well placement and optimization of well spacing using the particle swarm algorithm

Abstract Optimizing the placement of new wells and well spacing are vital issues in oilfield development. In recent years, the use of particle swarm algorithm (PSA) in many reservoir applications has gained wide acceptance. More importantly, the applications of PSA in determining optimal well placem...
