Abstract
A computer-based method of optimizing a sedimentary flow simulation is provided. The method includes: providing seismic data for a geological volume, the seismic data comprising one or more sedimentary layers; de-compacting the sedimentary layers to obtain a sedimentary volume; providing a sedimentary flow simulation to model the deposition of the sedimentary volume, the simulation including a plurality of sedimentation process parameters; and optimizing the process parameters to match the modelled sedimentary volume to the sedimentary layers of the seismic data.
