COURSE OVERVIEW

Course Description

This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators.

 

This course focus on Facies modeling, which in recent years has become the main method for guiding and constraining Petrophysical models. Pixel based and Object models are demonstrated and exhausted in addition to complex hierarchical models combining multiple methods. Standard facies modeling methods have their limitations in more complex depositional environments. Therefore, this course will explore the more advanced property modeling tools, like the cutting edge Multi-point statistics process. 

 

Different ways of creating soft probability data using different processes to analyze data, such as trend modeling and geometrical trend modeling, exploring the relationship of secondary data to constrain models will also be covered.

 

There is a special focus in the theory behind the Multi-point statistical concept, covering the creation of good training images and how to incorporate soft probability data, vary direction and scale in the final simulation model. In addition, this course covers the Geobody modeling tool for extracting seismic bodies and use them directly as “hard data” in the modeling process.

 

During this interactive course, participants will be able to learn the basics of geostatistics; the creation of soft data; the facies modeling methods with classical geostatistics; the pixel-based facies modeling methods and object-based facies modeling methods; the conditioning and combining of modeling methods; the neural net learning systems and multi-point statistics (MPS) theory; region properties; the conditioning and scaling of MPS models; the creation and use of seismic geobodies; and the multi-point facies simulation and conditioned petrophysical modeling.
