Petroleum system modeling of heterogeneous organic-rich mudrocks
Abstract/Contents
- Abstract
- A successful characterization of a petroleum system involves understanding the potential and thermal maturity of the source rock, which can be done using basin and petroleum system modeling. Estimating the lateral and vertical heterogeneity of organic rich mudrocks is important to obtain accurate simulation results. Well penetrations in emerging plays are sparse and so data-oriented approaches to estimate the heterogeneity will not yield accurate results. In the case where data-based interpolation is not feasible, quantitative seismic interpretation (QSI) is helpful in estimating the desired properties. In this dissertation, we show how to apply the QSI workflow on organic-rich mudrocks by combining rock physics, basin and petroleum system modeling concepts, and statistical analysis.
