Abstract: It is challenging to develop thin oil rim reservoirs economically using conventional wells. Horizontal
wells are now widely used to overcome the shortcomings of vertical wells. The deciding factor in ensuring successful
horizontal wells application is optimum well placement. However, the conventional optimization approach is time and
resource-intensive. A data-driven approach was proposed to optimize heel and toe locations by deploying a deep learning
model. A synthetic database comprised of nine fundamental parameters that influence recovery mechanisms in thin oil
reservoirs was generated to train the model. The accuracy and computation time of a deep-learning model trained on a
synthetic database were compared to a novel optimization method that combines a genetic algorithm and a particle swarm
optimization(hybrid GA-PSO)algorithm. The deep-learning model predicted optimum well placement(heel and toe
points)with an accuracy comparable to the hybrid GA-PSO algorithm. Furthermore, the prediction obtained by the deep-
learning model takes significantly less computation time than the hybrid GA-PSO algorithm. The developed optimization
method offers a rapid and reliable initial guess of well placement for detailed optimization by simulation. The developed
model is universally applicable for various thin oil rim characteristics, especially in the scarcity of data to build a reliable
reservoir model.

a prediction, its generalization per formace needs to be
evaluated. The indicators are that the model is consistent
and capable of making accurate predictions across a broad

K-fold cross-validation was used. Cross-validation is the gold
standard to evaluate a machine learning model(Ghosh,
