Characterization and Development Planning for a Small Oil Reservoir

  • Chapter
3D Geoscience Modeling

Abstract

The majority of reservoir characterizations are performed with surface-based approaches, typically employing deformed grid data structures for 3D representation. This approach works reasonably well for relatively simple stratified conditions, but has the limitations discussed in Chapter 1 with respect to geological complexity.
