METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR OBTAINING STATISTICAL MEASURES OF GEOLOGICAL PROPERTIES VALUES RELATED TO LATERAL WELLS USING SEISMIC-DERIVED MAPS

摘要

A method for statistical analysis of geological property values for lateral wells based on seismic-derived attribute values is provided. A grid of points is created for the lateral well. The grid points are then fitted to a subset of seismic bins. The attribute values along the lateral well are estimated from map values associated with the fitted points. Statistical measures of the estimated attribute values are provided for assessing hydrocarbon productivity.
