Abstract
A method includes generating k, (k+1), . . . , (k)control inputs for actuating flow control devices of a production well and/or an injection well of a well system during corresponding sampling steps k, (k+1), . . . , k, actuating the flow control devices during the kstep using the kcontrol input, measuring a position of a fluid front and a dynamic state of the well system during the kstep; predicting a dynamic state of the well system at each step (k+1), . . . , kusing a state predictor, updating the (k+1), . . . , (k)control inputs based on the predicted dynamic states, optimizing the (k+1), . . . , (k)control inputs using a desired cost function, actuating the flow control devices during the (k+1)step using the optimized value for the (k+1)step, and measuring the position of the fluid front and a dynamic state of the well system during the (k+1)step.
