The Paradigm™ Reservoir Modeling solution, powered by SKUA®, provides geologists and reservoir modelers with the next-generation software they need to create accurate, unbiased and geologically realistic reservoir models.
In one integrated 3D modeling environment, Paradigm Reservoir Modeling provides the workflows, tools and flexibility needed to efficiently and accurately represent the subsurface and its petrophysical content. Thanks to a user-friendly interface, automated work processes, and a complete audit trail, even the novice user can model faster, while tracking every modeling change.
|
Paradigm reservoir modeling solutions facilitate the investigation of alternative scenarios as well as the quantification of uncertainties related to the reservoir structure and the data and parameters used to construct the model. This results in reliable hydrocarbon-in-place distributions, ranked reservoir models that are representative of the spread in reservoir volumes, and summary uncertainty maps or volumes that are ideal for development or infill target identification.
|
-
Uses all available data and geologic rules to ensure model accuracy.
-
Avoids modeling deformation and incorrect spatial correlations, geobody computations and volumetrics introduced with pillar modeling.
-
Handles any kind of fault geometry, and any kind of fault network topology (X,Y, lambda faults).
-
The modeling workflow tracks every modeling change.
-
Faster process time allows for more iterations and hence more accurate analysis.
-
Match with the intra-layer seismic chrono-stratigraphy for correct use of seismic derived properties inside the model.
|
-
Step-by-step, integrated workflows
-
A suite of geostatistical algorithms that enable the integration of a wide range of constraints, including well data, seismic attributes and other geologic information.
-
Direct access to facies and logs derived from Geolog®, inversion data from Vanguard® and seismic facies from Stratimagic®, all for use in the reservoir modeling.
-
A reservoir grid that prevents gridding artifacts from affecting facies and petrophysical property models, thus ensuring accurate sand volumes and reservoir connectivity.

UVT Transform®
The UVT Transform technology was developed on the premise that 2.5D pillar gridding is insufficient to describe 3D reservoir models. The UVT Transform is based on true 3D technology, which enables the modeling of reservoir properties and other attributes in their true depositional state, resulting in accurate reservoir models. This technology also allows the construction of optimal flow simulation grids which best respect cell orthogonality requirements, while handling any faulting.
The true 3D approach of the UVT Transform guarantees a geologically coherent upscaling between the fine-scale geologic grid and the upscale flow simulation grid, as both are issued from the same UVT model.
Finally, the UVT Transform enables the creation of flow simulation grids with curvilinear pillars potentially aligned in 3D on the main faults, and/or stair-steps along antithetic faults.
