    Abstract: A system includes a processing device and a non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that are executable by the processing device to cause the system to perform operations. The operations include generating and running a reservoir simulation model. The reservoir and simulation model includes representative natural fracture or secondary porosity attributes for an area of interest for one or more wells. The operations also include generating a synthetic G-function response using results of the reservoir simulation model. Additionally, the operations include calibrating the synthetic G-function response from the reservoir simulation model to a field G-function response generated using results of a field diagnostic fracture injection test by changing natural fracture characteristics of the reservoir simulation model. Further, the operations include formulating a drilling plan, a completion plan, or both for a wellbore in the area of interest using the synthetic G-function response.

    Abstract: Partially coupling a geomechanical simulation with a reservoir simulation facilitates predicting strain behavior for a reservoir from production and injection processes. A method comprises generating a geomechanical model based on a mechanical earth model that represents a subsurface area. The geomechanical model indicates a division of the mechanical earth model into a plurality of grid cells that each correspond to a different volume of the subsurface area. Based on a first virtual compaction experiment with the geomechanical model, compaction curves are generated. The compaction curves represent porosity as a function of stress. The compaction curves are converted from porosity as a function of stress to porosity as a function of pore pressure. The geomechanical model is partially coupled to a reservoir simulation model using the converted compaction curves.
