Abstract:
A method, apparatus, and program product utilize a probabilistic approach to identify areas of interest from multiple realizations of a reservoir model to drive well placement planning under uncertainty. A combined probability map may be generated from opportunity maps generated for multiple reservoir model realizations such that a probability value in various entries of the probability map represents a probability of opportunity values stored in corresponding entries of the opportunity maps meeting an opportunity criterion. One or more areas of interest may then be identified from the probability map.
