Short summary

The forward stratigraphic simulation method is used to predict lithofacies, porosity, and permeability in a reservoir model. The objective of using this approach is to enhance subsurface property modelling through geologic realistic 3-D stratigraphic patterns. Results show realistic stratigraphic sequences. Given this, we can derive spatial and geometric data as secondary data to constrain property simulation in a reservoir model. The approach can reduce the uncertainty of property modelling.
