A challenge in petroleum geostatistics is the application of modeling algorithms such as Gaussian simulation to unstructured grids that are being used for flow simulation. Geostatistical modeling is typically applied on a fine scale regular grid and then upscaled to the unstructured grid. This...

Multiple data types should be used simultaneously to improve resource estimation models. The multivariate relationship between the data is required. One common approach involves using decorrelation transformation techniques to simplify complex relationships, but this method relies on having...

Investigation of variation in oil sand properties via analysis of seismic and on-board truck data
DownloadFall 2014
The ever increasing size of mining equipment has caused many instability concerns both on board and in the ground underneath. This highlights the need for more in-depth knowledge of variation in the properties of the ground as it has direct influence on the durability and life span of mining...

The need for specialized software, particularly for repetitive construction is growing. Although simulation has been accepted in the research world, the industry has been slow to follow. The goal of this research is the development of a special purpose template for linear scheduling that is...

A mine’s haul road network has a large influence upon the success of a mine, and aside from occasional visual inspections, a significant number of mines put little emphasis on monitoring the condition of haul surfaces. The opportunity exists for a haul road benchmarking system, which can be...

Uncertainty in resource estimation affects long-term development, planning, and investment decisions. Therefore, there is a need to make the best decisions considering all available data and different modeling approaches. This thesis develops a conceptual framework for resource modeling with...

Improved numerical reservoir models are constructed when all available diverse data sources are accounted for to the maximum extent possible. Integrating various diverse data is not a simple problem because data show different precision and relevance to the primary variables being modeled,...

Canada has approximately 50% of land mass covered with permafrost. With the increasing of mining and construction activities in permafrost regions, cement-based mixtures (e.g., concrete, shotcrete, backfill, and grout) are expected to be increasingly used in these regions. However, cold...

The mining industry has become increasingly concerned with the effects of uncertainty and risk in resource modeling. Some companies are moving away from deterministic geologic modeling techniques to approaches that quantify uncertainty. Stochastic modeling techniques produce multiple realizations...
