Bonga Field - an Integrated Approach to Subsurface Modelling in an Uncertain World

1 L-22 BONGA FIELD – AN INTEGRATED APPROACH TO SUBSURFACE MODELLING IN AN UNCERTAIN WORLD P. SWINBURN and R. VAN DER WEIDEN Abstract Introduction The key to successful development planning is the building of earth models integrating all relevant subsurface data and predicting reservoir performance in the presence of uncertainties. In this paper we will show how the application of Shell’s propriety probabilistic layer-based seismic inversion programme is used in the building of reservoir models and how this is integrated with the dynamic simulations and surface facilities to optimise future production of the Bonga Field offshore Nigeria. The Bonga Field
