    Study Notes

    Emerson Confidential - Facies Modeling and Realization Techniques

    • Facies Composite can be used to create 1D, 2D, or 3D trends for object sizes, orientation, volume fractions, and distribution control by seismic attributes.
    • The algorithm uses a reference point to position objects, with the default reference point at 0,0,0 at the center of the object shape.
    • Volume fraction settings can be specified globally or locally to introduce trends, and geometry settings include standard deviation of object size, height, and dip.
    • Simulation settings with varying T0 values can control variability in volume fraction during the simulation.
    • Facies realization merging can be used to create complex environments through hierarchical modeling and defining erosion rules.
    • RMS offers both pixel-based and object-based methods for facies modeling, with applications in digitized polygon or point data, seismic data, and high-permeable flow regions.
    • The pixel-based methods include the use of multipoint statistics (MPS) and training images to create realistic facies architectures in 3D reservoir models.
    • Object-based methods utilize a 3D grid layout, well data, and trend lines/surfaces for stochastic reservoir modeling during exploration and production stages.
    • The techniques provide flexibility, speed, and the ability to incorporate multiple sources of hard data such as well data, seismic, and trends.
    • The modeling exercises demonstrate the application of facies modeling in different geological environments, such as fluvial and shoreface/delta settings, with varying available data and geological characteristics.
    • Case studies illustrate the use of facies belts, channels, indicators, and composite techniques to model different facies distributions and environments.
    • The exercises and case studies provide insights into the practical application of facies modeling in real-world reservoir characterization and modeling projects.

    RMS Facies Modeling Techniques

    • RMS offers pixel-based methods for facies modeling, allowing for the creation of flexible facies patterns and trends.
    • The performance of facies indicators is independent of the number of wells and the use of seismic data, making it suitable for mature fields.
    • Flexible trend incorporation in facies indicators allows for a wide variety of 1D, 2D, and 3D volume fraction trends as input.
    • Vertical proportion curves are utilized as input for facies indicators, capturing trends such as upwards fining and the presence of coal at the top.
    • Seismic constraints in facies indicators can be incorporated through cosimulation and using seismic as a trend, such as Vshale map from seismic attributes.
    • RMS also provides object-based methods for facies modeling, particularly for modeling complex channel systems in fluvial, tidal, and crevasse settings.
    • The two main operating modes for modeling fluvial systems are "Sandbody" mode and "Multi-channel" mode, each with specific user input requirements.
    • Common mistakes in modeling channels include algorithms not suited for internal channel bodies and the use of object modeling algorithms to avoid bias at wells.
    • Facies composite in RMS allows for the definition of background and object facies, with advanced object-based multi-well conditioning and powerful trend control.
    • Objects in facies composite include rectangle, axial ellipsoid, angular cone, and backbone, each offering a variant of the axial shape for user-defined shapes.
    • Examples of user-defined shapes in facies composite include channel types, turbidite lobes, wide spread shale barriers, and wave reworked mouthbars, each with specific detailed shape settings.
    • The typical detailed shape settings for user-defined shapes in facies composite include parameters such as center-line amplitude, width relative amplitude, and relative wavelength, offering flexibility and realism in conditioning widespread barriers.
