Summary:[...]a multi-layered genetic fuzzy perceptron approach based on ANFIS [23] is used in this study. [...]improving the performance of these wells is a cost-effective way to reverse the negative production decline trend, extend field life and improve oil recovery. By applying the EOR recovery techniques, millions of barrels of oil will be extracted from the existing fields by increasing the recovery factor up to 60% of the oil in the reservoir [33]. [...]screening oil reservoirs can be considered as the first step before an EOR project implementation in Angola. Besides box-plots, Equations (1) and (2) can also be used for data analysis.
