EarthGrid (a module in TrapTester)

EarthGrid module in TrapTester software

EarthGrid is a completely new infrastructure within TrapTester for the import, display, analysis and export of corner-point grids, their properties and structure. TrapTester can now incorporate spatially modeled volume attributes from geocellular modelling packages.

The physical properties of fault zones are the most influential factor in the prediction of cumulative oil production. Badleys have created TMXmapper, another add on module to TrapTester, for deriving Transmissibility Multipliers for export to reservoir simulations.

Key Features:

Integration

EarthGrid is fully integrated into TrapTester providing a single environment for data access, visualization and export of results. The geocellular reservoir model can be displayed together with depth converted interpretations, well and seismic data. QC of the geocellular model is uniquely possible through the direct comparison with the high resolution TrapTester (or 3rd party model) geological model.

Attribute modelling

A comprehensive range of geocellular attributes are available, including throw, stratigraphy, overlap area, and derived fault properties such as shale gouge ratio, clay smear potential and column height. The TMXmapper module incorporates all the standard empirical relationships and proprietary calibrations to predict fault-zone properties such as transmissibility multipliers.

Visualization

The TrapTester implementation embodies a whole new infrastructure for observing corner-point grids, cell attributes and cell-fault properties.. All properties are displayable on horizon and fault surfaces.

Key Benefits:

Derive fault-zone properties for reservoir simulation

Combining EarthGrid with the new TMXmapper module of TrapTester gives the complete solution for the inclusion of transmissibility multiplier calculations in dynamic simulations. TMXmapper and EarthGrid allows export of the transmissibility multiplier calculations directly back to ECLIPSE™
