Many connections between well with multiple perforations after Delaunay triangulation
When wells have multiple perforations, many "overlapping" triangles are potentially created as a result of Delaunay triagulation. This leads to many tubes that need to be history matched which all go to a single node. How can we handle this in a better way?
See picture for an exmaple:
I have looked a little into this issue. I modified the original Norne schedule file to remove the unnecessary information on well completions before the wells are open (i.e., like a initial "workover" before the well starts flowing). Below you see figures for the flow network using the original schedule file (as the picture from @wouterjdb above) and for the network with the modified schedule. A lot fewer well connections are created with the modified schedule, as you can see. Note that these are FlowNet models generated without enabling the recently added layering option - I tried to do it for that case as well, but then there were issues when constructing the FlowNet schedule file for the case without the "initial workover"
