History matching is a type of inverse problem in which observed reservoir behavior is used
to estimate reservoir model variables that caused the behavior. Obtaining even a single …

There are various approaches for quantitative estimation of reservoir properties from seismic
inversion. A general Bayesian formulation for the inverse problem can be implemented in …

Faulting in Middle Jurassic reservoirs occurred at shallow depth during regional extension.
Clean sandstones (< 15% clay) deformed without significant grain fracturing and …

Carbonate oil reservoirs are sometimes regarded with apprehension in the petroleum
industry since it can be difficult to predict the quality of, and ensure high recovery factors …

Fault zone properties are incorporated in production flow simulators using transmissibility
multipliers. These are a function of properties of the fault zone and of the grid-blocks to …

This paper presents a comparison study in which several partners have applied methods to
quantify uncertainty on production forecasts for reservoir models conditioned to both static …

The discrete feature network (DFN) approach offers many key advantages over conventional
dual porosity (DP) approaches, particularly when issues of connectivity dominate recovery …

An object model for fluvial reservoirs that has been developed from 1985 to present is
described. It uses a formal mathematical object model (marked point process) describing the …

Faults can severely compartmentalize pressures and fluids in producing reservoirs, and it is
therefore important to take these effects into account when modelling field production …

This publication comes from a course designed to explain, in non-mathematical terms, that
geostatistics is a simple and flexible formalism for quantifying geology. Topics included in …
