Previous work

Geology

great improvement to reduce ill-determination

Petrophysics: statistics of measurements not always honoured; use of constitutive equations requires very high level of prior information

Petrophysics

Geophysics Structural constraints, good improvement to enforce structural similarity

between models

Hypothesis may not be robust in some cases

great improvement, reduce non-uniqueness

Mostly use of discrete/fixed topology or use of best guess models, which can be depend on user expertise

Overview

• Motivations and previous work • Modelling approach• Examples: current and future work• Conclusion and discussion

Page 42: Integration of geological and petrophysical constraints in geophysical joint inversion

Conclusion Tested on “complex” synthetic (statistically true

geologically) - Integration gives better results - Obtain results with low model misfit

Higher degree of integration than other workflows Respect the statistics Consistent with geology Honours geophysics

(tried to) address some of the weaknesses of previous work

Page 43: Integration of geological and petrophysical constraints in geophysical joint inversion

Discussion Investigate bigger models, more complex

Start investigating a case study– Compare with traditional exploration– Quantify uncertainty / risk– Identify new prospects?

Petrophysics: rock types not always very differentiated – geological useful to mitigate this

Possibility to add another geophysical method
