Abstract
Successful and safe hydrocarbon drilling operations require creation of a detailed and accurate estimate of the earth’s physical properties before the well location is planned. Creating such a reservoir model typically involves the interpretation of seismic data to predict macro- and micro-scale rock properties and to guide the interpolation of reservoir properties between existing well locations.
