  3. Abstract:
  4. The authors simulated a reservoir by using two-layer perceptron. Indeed a model was developed to simulate the increase in oil recovery caused by bacteria injection into an oil reservoir. This model was affected by reservoir temperature and amount of water injected into the reservoir for enhancing oil recovery. Comparing experimental and simulation results and also the erratic trend of data show that the neural networks have modeled this system properly. Considering the effects of nonlinear factors and their erratic and unknown impacts on recovered oil, the perceptron neural network can develop a proper model for oil recovery factor in various conditions. The neural networks have not been applied in modeling of microbial enhanced oil recovery since now. Finally, we are going to design a controller for the neural network. This controller is designed for the case where output of the network is oil recovery factor. For this purpose, the network is designed as a one-layer network in which just one output matches each time. In this case, a one-layer network will have acceptable results
