Disclosed are various reservoir model generation methods. At least one of the methods includes providing a first framework having a plurality of cells, wherein the first framework is a reservoir framework and providing a second framework having a plurality of cells, wherein the volume of the first framework is greater than the volume of the second framework.

Reservoir model building methods

Described herein are methods of evaluating reservoirs. At least one of the methods includes providing a three dimensional reservoir framework having a plurality of cells; assigning one or more constant reservoir property values to some or all of the cells to provide a first three dimensional reservoir model; updating the first three dimensional reservoir model by populating some or all of the cells with one or more variable reservoir property values to provide a second three dimensional reservoir model; and updating the second three dimensional reservoir model by populating some or all of the cells with one or more reservoir property values derived from seismic data to provide a third three dimensional reservoir model. Other methods are also described.
