MODELING COMPLEX TRENDSPetrophysical properties may be poorly correlated to the facies 3D model : → Causes
– Sedimentological def inition of facies– Electrofacies poorly characterized in Permeability– …
→ Consequences– Properties histogram overlap from one facies to another– Smooth transition of properties from one facies to another
How to detect, characterize and account for such effects?

SOLVING THE ISSUEHow to detect and characterize properties correlations across facies borders?
→ Use of domaining tools commonly used in mining industry
Consider 2 points (x+h) and x in different facies
– Mean difference: E[Z(x+h)-Z(x)]
– Conditional mean: E[Z(x+h) |Z(x)]A B

• Case 1: Independent distributions of Property in Facies A and Facies B.
• Case 2: Distributions of Property in Facies A and Facies B with different means and smooth transition. Property in A and B depends on the distance to the other facies.
• Case 3: Distributions of Property in Facies A and Facies B are partially independent, partially correlated (jump at border + trend effect.
• Case 4: Distributions of Property in Facies A and Facies B with different means and border effect in B only. Property in A does not depend of B, but property in B depends on the distance to A.

EXAMPLES (SYNTHETIC DATA)Examples of typical Porosity distributions are compared:
→ Global Porosity– Continuity at f ield scale, independence from Facies
→ Facies dependent Porosity distribution– Specif ic Property histogram in each Facies, with or without overlap– Porosity distributions in different Facies are not correlated
→ Facies dependent Porosity distribution + border effect– Specif ic Property histogram in each Facies, with or without overlap– Porosity distributions in different Facies are linked

PRACTICAL APPLICATION EXAMPLE
Validation of a genetic sedimentological model: → Border effect calculation based on acoustic impedance
with reference to genetic facies model
→ Test of relationship between facies and seismic properties– Independence -> facies model is not representative of the f ield
– Facies dependent statistics of properties -> facies model is representative of the f ield• Presence of property trend in facies indicates partial correlation between
facies and properties

CONCLUSION
→ Border effect analysis is a good tool for geological model QC
→ It allows characterizing complex petrophysicalproperties in Facies
→ It allows validating sedimentological models when coupled with seismic data
→ The tools are immediately available
