In this article, two new metaheuristic optimization techniques, namely, crow search algorithm and re y algorithm are applied to the well placement optimization problem and their applications to maximize the net pro t value are studied. To study the performance of the re y and crow search algorithm, Eclipse and MATLAB environment are used . The proposed techniques are compared to popular established methods for optimizing well placement. Results show that the re y algorithm is proved to be e cient and e ective compared to other established techniques. However, the standard crow search algorithm is not suited to this problem. |
