实时决策在增强型地热系统(EGS)中面临挑战,因长期生产涉及高维控制空间和大量耗时的高保真水热模拟。强化学习天然适用于状态依赖的序列控制,但直接使用数值模拟器训练策略计算成本过高。为此,本文提出一种基于扩散-代理的强化学习框架,用于长期EGS井控优化。以储层温度和压力场为系统状态,注水速率为控制动作。利用条件扩散模型构建学习型代理环境,预测储层温度与压力场的演化,并通过独立奖励模型估算相应经济回报。该代理环境与近端策略优化(PPO)结合,实现高效策略训练。在断裂型EGS基准测试中,扩散代理能准确复现多个控制阶段的储层状态演化。所获代理辅助的PPO策略在井控性能上优于直接模拟器基的PPO及现有优化方法,同时显著降低对昂贵高保真模拟的依赖。结果表明,基于扩散的代理环境在地热井控优化的强化学习中具有潜力。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

Real-time decision-making for enhanced geothermal systems (EGS) is challenging because long-term production periods involve high-dimensional control spaces and a large number of time-consuming high-fidelity hydrothermal simulations. Reinforcement learning provides a natural framework for state-dependent sequential control, but direct policy training with numerical simulators is computationally expensive. To address this issue, we propose a diffusion-surrogate guided reinforcement learning framework for long-horizon EGS well-control optimization. The reservoir temperature and pressure fields are used as system states, while injection rates are selected as control actions. A learned surrogate environment is constructed using conditional diffusion models to predict the evolution of reservoir temperature and pressure fields and a separate reward model to estimate the corresponding economic return. The surrogate environment is then integrated with Proximal Policy Optimization (PPO) for efficient policy training. Experiments on a fractured EGS benchmark show that the diffusion surrogate can accurately reproduce reservoir-state evolution over multiple control stages. The resulting surrogate-assisted PPO policy achieves competitive well-control performance compared with direct simulator-based PPO and existing optimization methods, while substantially reducing the dependence on expensive high-fidelity simulations. These results demonstrate the potential of diffusion-based surrogate environments for efficient reinforcement learning in geothermal well-control optimization.
