Conceptual model
The choice of a sound conceptual model, and hence the geological driver,
enables us to distribute fractures in a sensible way, also in the area not
checked by the wells
Reservoir Geology

Geological Drivers
Qualitative and quantitative information related to geological
characteristics of the field.
They are used as trend to distribute to the whole field:
the fracture network
the fracture equivalent parameters (i.e. : permeability, )

Model evaluation
Previous validation
Static matching: the model must match well data (fracture
intensity, fracture geometry)
The model has also to match regional geologic data (fracture
geometry)
Final validation
Dynamic matching: the model must match the historical
