A new hybrid framework combining physics-based modeling with machine learning has been introduced for virtual flowmetering, aiming to optimize oil and gas production. The approach uses physical models to constrain machine learning predictions, improving accuracy in measuring flow rates where physical meters are costly or impractical. Industry coverage highlights its potential to improve reservoir management and production optimization across operations.

University endowments scored big on SpaceX, with stakes in the rocket company generating large returns. But the windfall creates a new problem: swollen allocations to private companies leave endowment managers with portfolios that are harder to rebalance, and deciding how to redeploy the gains or manage concentrated exposure is proving tricky.
