    Abstract: A reservoir model for values of a formation property is simulated using a turning bands method with distributed computing. A distributed computing system simulates the reservoir on separate machines in parallel in several stages. First, line distributions are simulated independently on turning bands. The reservoir model is partitioned into tiles and unconditional simulations are run on each tile in parallel using the corresponding simulated turning bands. The unconditional simulations within each tile are conditioned on known formation values to generate conditional simulations. Conditional simulations are aggregated across tiles to create the simulated reservoir model.

    Abstract: A method for processing a well data log may comprise adding one or more boundary areas to the well data log, dividing the well data log into one or more segments using the one or more boundary areas, processing each of the one or more segments on one or more information handling systems, and reforming each of the one or more segments into a final simulation. A system for processing a well data log may comprise one or more information handling systems in a cluster. The one or more information handling systems may be configured to perform the method for processing the well data log.

    Abstract: The disclosure presents a technique to generate a fracture model using a differential stress map and model inputs. The technique simulates the fracture model using fracture fronts, initiated at perforations of a perforation stage of a hydraulic fracturing (HF) wellbore. Each fracture front is evaluated using a propagation step of a fracture model process. Using the relative differential stress states, a fracture pattern is composited to the fracture model. At each propagation step, the total energy available from the simulated fluid being pumped into the wellbore location is reduced by the amount necessary to generate the computed fractures. Once the remaining energy is reduced to a level where no further fractures can be created, or if a map boundary is encountered, the fracture model process terminates. The generated fracture model can be communicated to update HF job plans, wellbore placements, and other uses of the fracture model.
