APRIL 2017 AGENDA
Session 1 | Integrating Reservoir Engineering with Geology - The importance of sensitivity analysis on cell size while creating geological models In
order to get the most of our investments and resources, communication between
geosciences and reservoir engineering specialists is essential. Asset teams are
usually formed by multi-domain and multi-skilled professionals, however, not
always this communication are fluid or easy and it might lead to the entire
team to wrong results and decisions.
The grid cell size, defined by the lateral resolution of the grid and the grid layering, is an essential parameter in geological modeling, the impact of which is most of the time undervalued and neglected. In many occasions, default values of 50m x 50m are selected as the lateral grid spacing to generate reservoirs base cases. However, what is the real impact of the cell size on our models and therefore, on our decisions? Do you have in place a sensitivity analysis step in your reservoir modeling workflow? This webinar will focus on the importance of assessing the impact of cell size on volumetrics results as well as its effect on fluid flow and compartmentalization. The presenter aims to raise awareness of the cell size importance in both domains, geology and reservoir engineering, by presenting a sensibility analysis using one of the public datasets as well as by presenting a workflow to help our clients to make a base case selection based on it.

Session 2 | Uncertainty Workflows in Petrel This presentation will focus on the uncertainty and sensitivity workflows within Petrel. Dr Christopher Banks |
