Braided fluvial reservoirs can host significant volumes of hydro-carbons, being high net/gross ratio, and are often considered to be relatively easy to characterize. But this is not always the case, as confirmed in a recent study conducted by Houston-based reservoir services company Geotrace Technologies Inc. The Misoa Sandstone reservoir in...
Vertical Seismic Facies Detection Through Unsupervised 3D Voxel Based Seismic Facies Classification Applied to a Turbidite Field in Campos Basin, Brazil
Nowadays, automatic seismic facies analysis techniques have been growing as an important interpretation tool for the oil exploration industry. Depending on the reservoir knowledge, the seismic facies analysis could be supervised by a priori geological information, or could be unsupervised, when there are not enough data to guide the analysis....
