Modeling spatial variables involves uncertainty. Uncertainty is affected by the degree to which a spatial variable has been sampled: decreased spacing between samples leads to decreased uncertainty. The reduction in uncertainty due to increased sampling is dependent on the properties of the...

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...

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...

A reliable estimate of the amount of oil or gas in a reservoir is required for development decisions. Uncertainty in reserve estimates affects resource/reserve classification, investment decisions, and development decisions. There is a need to make the best decisions with an appropriate level...
