“GEOSTATISTICS FOR SEISMIC DATA INTEGRATION IN EARTH MODELS”

Abstract

In  recent years, the use of geostatistics has spread from the world of
reservoir characterisation to that of  velocity analysis, time-to-depth
conversion, seismic inversion,  uncertainty quantification, and more
generally to that of seismic data integration in earth models. Nevertheless,
many geoscientists still regard geostatistics as little more than a
statistical black-box. By explaining the concepts and applications, the goal
of this course is to clarify the benefits of geostatistics and help spread
its use.



The course will cover the use of geostatistics for interpolation (kriging…),
heterogeneity modelling, uncertainty quantification (simulation…), and data
integration (cokriging, external drift, geostatistical inversion…). A
variety of applications and examples will be presented, including velocity
mapping, time-to-depth conversion, heterogeneity modelling, and seismic data
integration in stochastic earth models.  The relationships between
geostatistics and approaches more familiar to geophysicists, such as
filtering or bayesian methods, will also be discussed, without entering into
mathematical details.  A number of case studies will be presented, covering
examples from various parts of the world.  This will be a lively course,
illustrated by examples, exercises and discussion sessions.



The short-course presentation, limited to one-day, will provide an overview
of basic concepts and applications. The course document will provide a
support to the course, and further extend some of the more technical
considerations.



As a result of following this course, geoscientists, and more specifically
geophysicists will better understand how geostatistics fits into their
workflow, what tools and techniques they should use depending on the problem
at hand, and what added-value may result from its use.



O. Dubrule has significant teaching experience, through his AAPG sponsored
course « Geostatistics in Petroleum Geology » and through courses he has
given internally at TotalFinaElf, at the Geological Society (through Japec)
and at academic institutions such as Imperial College (London) and Ecole des
Mines (France).



This course comes at a time when the use of geostatistics is spreading in
geophysics, as shown by the increase in the number of geostatistics papers
submitted to Geophysics or Geophysical Prospecting. It should raise
significant interest among both SEG and EAGE members.



WHO SHOULD ATTEND ?


This is a great opportunity for those interested in solving practical
problems involving data interpolation, earth modelling, multidisciplinary
data integration or uncertainty quantification



BIOGRAPHY



Dr. Dubrule obtained a PhD Degree in Petroleum Geostatistics at Ecole des
Mines de Paris in 1981. He then worked for Sohio Petroleum Company in the
USA (1982-1986), Shell International in The Netherlands (1986-1991) and,
since 1991, he has been with Elf and TotalFinaElf, working in France and in
the UK. During his career, he has held a variety of staff and management
positions where he developed and applied new techniques for reservoir
characterisation, earth modelling, risk analysis and uncertainty
quantification. After leading the « Earth Modelling and Uncertainty
Quantification » group at TotalFinaElf, Dr. Dubrule recently became manager
of Geoscience Training and Communication.



Dr. Dubrule has authored more than twenty papers in the field of
geostatistics and earth modelling. In 1991, he received the President's
prize of the International Association of Mathematical Geology, for
"Outstanding Contribution to Mathematical Geology by an individual 35 years
or younger”.  In the last decade, he organised and chaired a number of
events organised by SPE, EAGE, SEG or AAPG. Dr. Dubrule is the author of
AAPG Course Notes Series #38 “Geostatistics in Petroleum Geology”, and
editor (with E. Damsleth) of  “Petroleum Geostatistics” a Special Issue of
EAGE’s Petroleum Geoscience Journal, published in 2001.
