With a total of 15 patents to his name, Banerjee has developed innovative solutions that enhance operational efficiency in complex environments.

Latest Patents

Among his latest patents is the "Optimum Flow Control Valve Setting System and Procedure." This technique facilitates the selection of optimum flow control valve settings to improve a desired objective function in a multizone well with zonal isolation. The system includes a network of flow control valves arranged along isolated well zones of at least one lateral bore of the multizone well. Data is acquired from downhole in the multizone well and processed using various processor system modules, which may include completion network modules, deconvolution modules, optimization modules, and inflow-outflow modules. These modules are designed to process the collected data, allowing for adjustments to the flow control valve settings to enhance the desired objective function.

Another notable patent is the "Automated Field Development Planning" system. This system automatically optimizes a Field Development Plan (FDP) for oil or gas fields by utilizing a fast analytic reservoir simulator. This simulator dynamically models oil or gas production from the entire reservoir over time, ensuring accuracy and speed. The system maximizes an objective function that defines a Figure of Merit (FoM) for candidate FDPs, using an optimization algorithm to determine the best FDP while considering various constraints.
