Explain the process of blocking wells in the context of petrophysical and facies modeling using a 3D grid cell structure.
The process of blocking wells involves identifying all the grid cells penetrated by a well trajectory to create a cell-based version of the well path, in order to scale up the selected log data belonging to each cell.
Why is it necessary to upscale well data to the resolution of the 3D grid layout?
Why is it necessary to upscale well data to the resolution of the 3D grid layout?
It is necessary to upscale well data to ensure that the well data is represented at the same resolution as the 3D grid, as the cell thickness in a 3D grid is normally greater than the well data sample density.
How is the scaled-up well data stored in the modeling process?
How is the scaled-up well data stored in the modeling process?
The scaled-up well data is stored in an object called a Blocked Wells parameter.
