Abstract
Method and system is described for modeling one or more strength properties of a subsurface volume. The method provides an enhanced process for upscaling to simplify data in a manner that accounts for problems with conventional techniques. The method involves simplifying the petrophysical data and/or layers to provide an upscaling approach that accounts for the influences on the strength properties. The properties may then be utilized to enhance a subsurface model and used to enhance hydrocarbon recovery.
