Integration of structural and basin modeling technologies to explore petroleum systems in regions with complex tectonics
Abstract
Generally the common basin modeling workflow includes seismo-geological, sedimentological and petroleum systems models development. The integration of structural modeling and palinspastic reconstruction is required if significant lateral displacement exists in the basin (in case of extensional and compressional tectonic regimes). The article is concerned with the difference between petroleum basins with simple and complex tectonic structure as well as challenges which modern basin modeling technologies with integration of structural reconstruction allows to solve. Some examples of Gazpromneft STC projects are provided.
