GENERATION OF SUBSURFACE REPRESENTATIONS USING LAYER-SPACE

摘要

Data in physical space may be converted to layer space before performing modeling to generate one or more subsurface representations. Computational stratigraphy model representations that define subsurface configurations as a function of depth in the physical space may be converted to the layer space so that the subsurface configurations are defined as a function of layers. Conditioning information that defines conditioning characteristics as the function of depth in the physical space may be converted to the layer space so that the conditioning characteristics are defined as the function of layers. Modeling may be performed in the layer space to generate subsurface representations within layer space, and the subsurface representations may be converted into the physical space.
