Overview

In regions with sparse well data, seismic attributes are a key component in distributing properties in a 3D structural grid away from the wells. Petrel™ seismic sampling enables bringing seismic attribute data directly, or in the form of extracted geobodies, into the 3D structural grid.

A channel running from south to north, and passing through wells, after being extracted as a geobody and sampled to the 3D reservoir grid.
With the geobody extraction process you can isolate acoustic bodies identified with the help of seismic attributes.
A geobody can be directly sampled to a 3D reservoir grid and property populated for further volumetrics and simulation workflows.
Porosity values from wells distributed in the grid cells that correspond to a sampled geobody.
Any seismic attribute volume, such as acoustic impedance as shown above, can be sampled to a 3D grid to support geological modeling.
Applications

Resample seismic volumes and geobodies as properties into 3D grids.

Benefits
Features
  • Sample seismic attribute volumes into an existing 3D grid.
  • Use a range of averaging methods and zone filters to sample seismic attribute data into an existing 3D grid.
  • Sample geobody objects, extracted from seismic attribute volumes, using the Petrel Seismic Volume Rendering and Extraction module into an existing 3D grid.
  • Control how to map voxels of the geobody object, called geoblobs, into the cells of an existing 3D grid.
