Abstract:

The simulation methods and model precision adopted for layered modeling in 3D geological modeling vary with reservoir characteristics and research purposes at different development stages. From the perspective of 3D geological modeling,the reservoir development can be divided into three stages: reservoir evaluation,new block development,and existing block adjustment. The layered modeling algorithms were analyzed and selected for the 5th fault block in Gangdong district 2. It is proposed that the Kriging algorithm should be used for modeling at the reservoir evaluation stage,with a grid resolution of 100 m × 100 m × 5.0 m;the Kriging or Global B-spline algorithm should be used for modeling at the new block development stage,with a grid resolution of 50 m × 50 m × 1.5 m;and the Local B-spline or Converging average algorithm should be used for modeling at the existing block adjustment stage,with a grid resolution of 10 m × 10 m × 0.5 m. This modeling approach can provide results in more coincidence with actual geological conditions and can meet requirements for reservoir research at each stage.
