RokDoc Ji-Fi (Joint Impedance & Facies Inversion) technology from Ikon Science offers several key benefits for reservoir characterization:
- It performs simultaneous inversion of seismic data for impedances and facies probabilities, providing a more integrated and accurate characterization of the reservoir. This accounts for the non-linear relationship between rock properties and seismic data.
- It enables better prediction of critical reservoir properties like porosity, lithology, and fluid saturations from the inverted impedances and facies volumes. These properties are essential for reservoir characterization.
- The rock physics modeling in Ji-Fi ensures the inverted results are consistent with the underlying rock physics principles, leading to more realistic and geologically conformable results.
- Ji-Fi produces higher resolution images by removing wavelet effects like tuning through deconvolution, allowing better delineation of thin beds and stratigraphic features important for characterizing the reservoir.
- The integration of well log data into the inversion process ensures the inverted volumes tie to the well control while also honoring the seismic data, providing a consistent reservoir characterization across different data types.
In summary, RokDoc Ji-Fi's coupled impedance and facies inversion, rock physics consistency, higher resolution, and integrated solution lead to more accurate and comprehensive reservoir characterization compared to conventional techniques.
