Geocellular Modeling
Geocellular models represent reservoir
characteristics in three dimensions PRCL builds
models in Petrel software, using data derived
from well logs, core, and seismic Interpretive
geological input is critical to optimize accuracy
of structural and stratigraphic reservoir
relationships PRCL works with affiliated
reservoir engineering consultants to populate
reservoir simulation (fluid flow) models with
geocellular results
12
Quantitative Petrophysics
PRCL interprets petrophysical data in various
software packages HDS 2008 and Prizm
(Geographix) Conventional play
analysis Incorporate interpretive
geology Unconventional play analysis Tie to
specialized core and sample analysis, including
mineralogy and geochemistry / maturity
data Populate geocellular models with
purpose-built processed log curves
