Abstract:
Systems and methods for estimating reservoir productivity as a function of depth in a subsurface volume of interest are disclosed. Exemplary implementations may: obtain subsurface data and well data corresponding to a subsurface volume of interest; obtain a parameter model; use the subsurface data and the well data to generate multiple production parameter maps; apply the parameter model to the multiple production parameter maps to generate refined production parameter values; generate multiple refined production parameter graphs; display the multiple refined production parameter graphs; generate one or more user input options; receive the one or more user input options selected by a user to generate limited production parameter values; generate a representation of estimated reservoir productivity as a function of depth in the subsurface volume of interest using visual effects; and display the representation.
