Geometrical Optimization of Multi-Well Trajectories. Prange, Tilke, P., Chapman, C., Acklestad, D., Aklestad, D., & Acklestad, D. 0.
abstract   bibtex   
A novel method is presented to automatically design a multi-well development plan given a set of previously interpreted subsurface targets. This method identifies the optimal plan by minimizing the total cost as a function of existing and required new platforms, the number of wells, and the drilling cost of each of the wells. The cost of each well is a function of the well path and the overall complexity of the well.
