Volume Based Modeling - Automated Construction of Complex Structural Models

Abstract: A new technology for creating, reliably and automatically, structural models from interpretation data is presented. The main idea behind this technique is to model directly volumes (the geological layers) rather than surfaces (horizons that are bounding these layers). In order to enforce the geological consistency of the created models another key element is built into this technology: it guarantees that the variations of dip and thickness of the created geological layers are minimized, while all seismic and w… Show more

“…In the following sections, the fundamentals of volume-based modeling [9] will be reminded and the integration of various structural and stratigraphic constraints in the model construction will be presented. The way modeling outputs can be fed back into the interpretation processes will also be discussed.…”

“…Discrete implicit modeling represents geological surfaces as isosurfaces of a piece-wise linear scalar field ϕ , interpolated within a set of three-dimensional elements [Moyen et al, 2004;Frank et al, 2007;Caumon et al, 2013;Souche et al, 2013;Mallet, 2014;Collon-Drouaillet et al, 2015]. Linear tetrahedron elements are generally used as they provide a simple linear interpolation in three-dimensional space and can be progressively refined [Frank et al, 2007] and adapted to discontinuities such as faults .…”

However, such solutions are generally cost demanding for academic standards, the implemented methodologies not published in detail and/or secluded to the user's community, leading to the so-called ''black box'' paradigm.…”
