Intelligent completion control in reservoir modeling

Abstract

Methods, systems, and computer-readable medium to perform operations for simulating performance of a reservoir that includes a wellbore. The operations include determining a constraint for an intelligent completion in a model of the wellbore, where the constraint includes a condition and a responsive action. The operations further include performing, in response to determining that the condition is satisfied, the responsive action. Further, the operations include determining, in response to performing the responsive action, transfer equations for the model of the wellbore. Yet further, the operations include building, using the transfer equations, a wellbore computation matrix for the model of the wellbore. In addition, the operations include solving the wellbore computation matrix and determining that a solution to the wellbore computation matrix has converged to an acceptable tolerance. The operations also include responsively determining that the converged solution is indicative of flow in the model of the wellbore.
