Hello all, Please join myself and @AG as we present at the Global 3DEXPERIENCE Modeling & Simulation Virtual Conference, taking place on November 17. Register Now!  https://events.3ds.com/global-3dexperience-modeling-simulation-virtual-conference

Presentation Abstract:

Mechanical Earth Models (MEMs) are finite element models that provide a first-principles physics-based description of an Oil and Gas field, describing the regional variations of stresses and strains throughout the field operational history. The MEMs are derivations of the subsurface modeling activities, tying information from multiple subsurface disciplines such as: geophysics, geology, petrophysics and reservoir engineering.  Due to the nature of the geological data used as input to create the MEMs, the process of creating suitable finite element models is fairly manual, tedious and time consuming, with typical lead times in the order of months. A novel CAD-based workflow using Dassault Systèmes modeling technology is show cased in this presentation. The 3D shape modeling technology from Dassault Systèmes CATIA is proven to rapidly and efficiently recreate a CAD-based description of the oil and gas field, reducing modeling cycle time to a few days. The CAD-based 3D model of the field is subsequently taken through the steps to fully define a finite element model using Dassault Systèmes SIMULIA technology. The results of the model are presented following industry standards, making the interpretation of the model outputs rather trivial, with suitable technology able to democratize access to the model results by non-specialists.

The replay of my presentation will be available after the event on this post, and I'm available here to answer your questions.
