Membership

Research focus: automated methods for reservoir monitoring and well test interpretation.

Membership in the SUETRI-D Well Testing is open to everyone. The annual membership fee is $30,000 which is used for graduate students support and computer facilities.  Beyond supporting research, SUETRI-D activities being considered are listed below: 

Some of the key benefits of membership in the program are :

• An annual review meeting at which ongoing research projects funded by the Consortium will be presented by faculty, students, and postdocs. Annual meeting usually held in May.
• A summer short course on topics of well testing and design, in the context of modern, computer-aided approaches. Preferential registration rates are available to participants whose companies are members of the sponsoring consortium.  This course is usually held in August
• Engagement with top students for possible recruitment and a substantial increase in the supply of graduates for work in the area of Well Testing.
• Access to early preprints and reprints of copies of (or early access to) research reports, papers and other publications originated by faculty and students associated with the SUETRI-D program.
• Possible visits by Stanford faculty to member companies' research centers to discuss research. The site presentations and all information, data and results arising from such visitation interactions will be shared with all members and the public.
• Discussions of possible collaboration on research between Stanford and member companies.
• Affiliates will be identified on the SUETRI-D website.

The SUETRI-D Well Testing is governed by university policies related to the Industrial Affiliates programs. If you have interest in hearing more about membership in the SUETRI-D, please contact: Lyrissa Roman at  lnroman@stanford.edu.
