Iterative static modeling of channelized reservoirs using history-matched facies probability data and rejection of training image

Abstract Most inverse reservoir modeling techniques require many forward simulations, and the posterior models cannot preserve geological features of prior models. This study proposes an iterative static modeling approach that utilizes dynamic data for rejecting an unsuitable training image (TI) amo...

Iterative static modeling of channelized reservoirs using history-matched facies probability data and rejection of training image
description Abstract Most inverse reservoir modeling techniques require many forward simulations, and the posterior models cannot preserve geological features of prior models.

The proposed method is applied to two cases of channelized reservoirs, which have uncertainty in channel geometry such as direction, amplitude, and width. Distance-based clustering is applied to the initial models in total to select the qualified models efficiently. The mean of the qualified models is employed as a history-matched facies probability map in the next iteration of static models.
