Abstract: Hybrid 3D geocellular grids are generated to represent a subset of a natural fracture network (“NFN”) directly in the simulation, while the remainder of the NFN is approximated by a multi-continuum formulation. The resulting output is a 3D geocellular grid that possesses a higher level of mesh resolution in those areas surrounding the first fracture subsets, and lower mesh resolution in the areas of the second fracture subset.
