3D Modelling Services

Modelling in 3D space is often more demanding than 2D modelling and mapping. We have been working in this field for more than 10 years and have completed many 3D models, both complex and simple. We understand the modelling process very well and how it fits into subsurface evaluation workflows from simple to complex, and relevant data dependencies. We have also helped clients move from 2D to 3D modelling as well as working with clients at more advanced stages. In some cases we also provide on-site modelling support for the geological rather than computer related aspects of modelling

The service can include any or all of the following:
  • Informed consultation with the client team to clearly define the objectives and expectations.
  • Managed project design with milestone and contingency planning
  • Initial review and QC of all data to identify major spatial "busts" or other problems in data at an early stage
  • Efficient workflow design and use of workflows or scripts for speed and repeatability where the software allows it.

  • Construction of 3D structural models (non-vertical faults and horizons) in time and depth from seismic and well data.
  • Implementation of depth conversion techniques.
  • Geological modelling (bodies & properties) within 3D volume to complete model.
  • Volumetric calculations for hydrocarbon reserves and resources
  • Uncertainty modelling
  • Regular model review with the team and peers to address progress.
  • 2D maps and cross-sections for model illustration
  • Submission of model to reservoir simulator and subsequent model adjustment
  • Interim & Final QC and report
