  • Updating synthetic horizons based on changes to interpreted horizons in a subsurface representation
    Patent number: 11221432
    Abstract: Changes to interpreted horizons in a subsurface representation are propagated to synthetic horizons in the subsurface representation by maintaining relative distances between the synthetic horizons and interpreted horizons. Distance ratios of synthetic horizons between interpreted horizons are applied to changed interpreted horizons to derive new locations of synthetic horizons.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: June 1, 2020
    Date of Patent: January 11, 2022
    Assignee: Chevron U.S.A. Inc.

  • SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING HYDROCARBONS FROM SUBSURFACE RESERVOIRS BASED ON KINETICS DESIGNED FOR IMPROVED API GRAVITY PREDICTION
    Publication number: 20190064390
    Abstract: A method is described for calculating kinetics of the API gravity predictions used for calculations related to the related to predictions of hydrocarbon properties in order to better facilitate the production of hydrocarbons from subsurface reservoirs. The method may be executed by a computer system.
