PREDICTING STRATIGRAPHIC COMPARTMENTALISATION IN NEAR-SHORE LACUSTRINE SEQUENCES

Defining the lateral equivalence of reservoir units is a critical precursor to understanding reservoir communication and hence predicting fluid migration over a field’s production lifespan. To improve our understanding of reservoir architecture, sequence stratigraphic models were integrated with dynamic datasets applied to guide predictions of sand continuity and hence stratigraphic compartmentalisation which was previously not imaged.
