    . This requires transferring the geological uncertainty to probability distributions of a response variable suitable for decision-making and use of a decision criterion that considers the reservoir manager’s preferences toward the project’s return-risk trade-off. This is challenging in petroleum

    transfer concepts and ideas from discrete simulation. It works on homogeneous and heterogeneous reservoirs and is computationally efficient enough to be applied over multiple geostatistical realizations. A case study performed with a realistic multi-realization geological model validates the predictive

    making under geological uncertainty. MVC-SDR does not rely on a specific utility function and leads to decisions that are considered rational to risk-averse reservoir managers. The shortcoming is a reduced ability to rank projects with very similar value. Two examples illustrate the use of MVC-SDR, the
