Episode Synopsis
How much does development design affect production outcomes? In this episode of The Novi AI Roundup, we unpack how small changes in spacing, stacking, and timing can lead to big differences in recovery. Drawing from our URTeC 2025 paper “A Bottoms-Up Analysis of Development Scenarios in the Midland Basin Using Machine Learning”, we explore how engineers are using physics-informed ML to evaluate tradeoffs across thousands of pads, and why bottoms-up modeling is changing how teams plan and forecast.This podcast episode is based on the technical paper “A Bottoms-Up Analysis of Development Scenarios in the Midland Basin Using Machine Learning”, authors: Dillon Niederhut and Brandon Myers. The paper was presented at URTeC 2025. Download the full paper here.
