Use of forward stratigraphic modelling for the detection of sub-seismic scale heterogeneities in shallow marine environments

Many stratigraphic features occur at a scale that is at the edge or below vertical seismic resolution. Thus, they cannot be directly observed in the seismic data, while still having an important effect on the fluid flow within the system. The better understanding of these sub-seismic scale features or heterogeneities can help decrease subsurface...

Automated Classification of Well Test Responses in Naturally Fractured Reservoirs Using Unsupervised Machine Learning

Understanding the impact of fractures on fluid flow is fundamental for developing geoenergy reservoirs. Pressure transient analysis could play a key role for fracture characterization purposes if better links can be established between the pressure derivative responses (p′) and the fracture properties. However, pressure transient analysis is...
