Review highlights how integrated modeling and multiobjective workflows accelerate field-development planning across energy assets, suggesting improved decision-making under uncertainty.

Key Points

Synthesize emerging workflows in field-development planning across offshore, unconventional, and carbon capture projects to enhance computational efficiency and uncertainty management.
Evaluated multiple industry case studies spanning deepwater developments, complex presalt offshore fields, and fast-track greenfield projects.
Analyzed the integration of reduced-physics simulations, fast-marching algorithms, Pareto-based multiobjective optimization, and geomechanical risk assessments.
Integrated workflows successfully decouple high computational overhead from geological uncertainty evaluation while preserving strong correlation with full physics models.
Multiobjective optimization and fit-for-purpose phased planning enhance well-placement quality, reduce operational geohazards, and accelerate project monetization across diverse offshore basins.
