Abstract:
Reservoir properties can be received. A plurality of potential well trajectories can be determined. Each trajectory can characterize an extension of the well from a well origin position. Each trajectory can include a plurality of well segments. Production contribution of each potential well trajectory can be evaluated using the reservoir properties. A final well trajectory can be provided based on the evaluated production contribution of the potential well trajectories. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.
