The Gridding process in JOA® Jewel Suite™ (patent 1024444) is a unique technology that creates orthogonal grids that precisely fit the horizons, faults, intrusions and unconformities, no matter how complex.
The orthogonal nature of the grid is well suited for reservoir modeling, and improves the geometrical representation of geological features, reservoir simulation results and drilling target positioning.
The JOA® gridding technology provides functionality to automatically create reservoir geological and simulation grids by slicing through the structural framework from top to base. During this automated process, all structural and geological features are maintained in the resulting grid.
JOA® patented gridding technology“Serving the geology” is the goal of the JOA® Gridding technology. The 3D gridding process in JOA® Jewel Suite™ uses patented technology that automatically creates orthogonal reservoir grids that precisely fit the horizons, faults, intrusions and unconformities, no matter how complex. The improved geometrical representation of geological features, structural models, and reservoir simulation models allows for precise drilling target positioning and accurate, efficient decision making.
The following geological features can be handled by the JOA® gridding technology in a fast and efficient way, ensuring the most optimal reservoir models for your total workflow:
