Controlling the sedimentological realism of deltaic reservoir models by the use of intelligent sedimentological prior information

摘要

The generation of multiple reservoir models that match production data is one of the advantages of automatic history matching. Including facies geometry variations within the AHM process without the modeller control could result in the selection of reservoir models that match production data but lack of sedimentological realism (facies geometry that mimic the geometry observed in nature). These unrealistic models will cause problems in production forecasting and reserves estimation. In this article, a technique is proposed to guarantee sedimentological realism within the AHM process.
