3D Interpolation and Extrapolation of Sparse Well Data Using Rock Physics Principles: Applications to Anisotropic VMB
نویسنده
چکیده
Mapping sparse well data into 3D volumes is a challenging problem. Specifically, as seismic velocity model buildings (VMB) requires 3D velocity and anisotropy volumes, and as most anisotropy estimates are calibrated to borehole data, generating 3D anisotropic models relies heavily on extrapolating sparse well data. This spatial extrapolation problem is ill posed and many subjective decisions are made during model building.

Geostatistical Seismic Inversion Using Well Log Constraints
Information about reservoir properties usually comes from two sources: seismic data and well logs. The former provide an indirect, low resolution image of rock velocity and density. The latter provide direct, high resolution (but laterally sparse) sampling of these and other rock parameters. An important problem in reservoir characterization is how best to combine these data sets, allowing the ...
متن کاملSpatial Interpolation: From Two to Three Dimensions
Interpolation methods are an important part in a geographical information system (GIS) and have been used for years to model elevation data. They are crucial in the visualisation process (generation of contours), for the conversion of data from one format to another, to have a better understanding of a dataset or simply to identify bad samples. The result of interpolation—usually a surface that...
متن کاملFace Recognition using an Affine Sparse Coding approach
Sparse coding is an unsupervised method which learns a set of over-complete bases to represent data such as image and video. Sparse coding has increasing attraction for image classification applications in recent years. But in the cases where we have some similar images from different classes, such as face recognition applications, different images may be classified into the same class, and hen...

متن کاملRock physics characterization of shale reservoirs: a case study
Unconventional resources are typically very complex to model, and the production from this type of reservoirs is influenced by such complexity in their microstructure. This microstructure complexity is normally reflected in their geophysical response, and makes them more difficult to interpret. Rock physics play an important role to resolve such complexity by integrating different subsurface di...
