Static reservoir model assessment
Challenge
- Generating multiple property average maps for each zone requires significant manual effort.
- The process of generating input data sets for additional average log-based maps and for each stratigraphic interval is time-consuming.
- Analyzing property changes after model updates is challenging.
Solution
This Petrel™ subsurface software-integrated solution streamlines the quality control (QC) of static reservoir models through automation and advanced diagnostics. It enables users to interrogate and validate models more efficiently with reduced manual input.
- Automated QC process: A one-click workflow that significantly reduces manual validation time from hours to minutes.
- Comprehensive diagnostic maps: Generates isochore maps, average porosity, permeability, and water saturation maps to assess model quality and compare against well data.
- Property change analysis: Automates comparison of property changes across model versions, improving accuracy and reducing interpretation time.
- Expert empowerment: Offers a powerful diagnostic tool for reservoir engineers to interrogate and analyze data effectively.
