Explore a comprehensive lecture on the Texas Permian Superbasin Geomodel, focusing on reservoir characterization studies. Delve into the multi-disciplinary workflows required to construct a world-class 3D geological model of the Permian Basin, including advanced techniques such as geomorphology-based modeling, detailed shelf-to-basin sequence stratigraphic interpretations, and automated fault extraction. Learn how facies interpretations, petrophysical results, and historical well production data are integrated to create a robust 3D model. Discover how this model combines regional geology understanding with detailed reservoir-scale interpretations, applicable to various research areas crucial for industry decision-making processes. Gain insights into sediment routing, well productivity, enhanced oil recovery, and seismicity analysis through this 57-minute presentation by Robin Dommisse, Senior 3D Geological Modeling Advisor at the Bureau of Economic Geology, University of Texas at Austin.
