Production optimization is an important and challenging task in oil industry. In the present paper, we look For an acceptable setting of Intelligent Control Valves (ICVs) which leads to optimum production respect To reservoir conditions and operational restrictions. The Design of Experiment (DoE) as a structured, Organized method is used to determine the relationship between different settings affecting petroleum Production. In this context, the Taguchi method and Response Surface Method are employed and tested on a horizontal well with few ICVs, in order to maximize oil production while minimizing produced Water. The summary of approach and computational results is reported.
