Abstract

ABSTRACT: This study considers the design and analysis of nonpumped well systems to provide pressure relief in the Cochrane aquifer, which is hydraulically connected to the Waterton Reservoir, Analyses of the relief well management problem are performed with a management model formulated by the combined simulation‐optimization approach. The model determines active relief well sites and their optimal discharge schedules. The existing relief wells are inadequate to provide the desirable pressure relief. The locations and design capacities of two new relief well systems are determined by the management model. The relationships between reservoir level and well discharge are estimated for these two well systems.
