Abstract
Differential equations defining physics of a reservoir are modeled as a neural network. Measured data for the reservoir is used as boundary condition to calculate the different equation parameters. The result is a neural ordinary differential equation network that models reservoir characteristics (e.g., inter-well connectivities, response times for injection wells and production wells) using physics that are encoded into the network. The neural ordinary differential equation network provides a solution for the reservoir that is constrained by the physics of the reservoir.
