Abstract

This invention relates to a method for determining a map of expectation and/or of variance of height of liquid hydrocarbon in a geological model. The method allows analytical resolution of these maps while taking account of the uncertainties in the variables allowing this calculation such as the porosity or oil saturation of the rock and also the uncertainty in the presence of certain types of facies given by the apportionment cubes of architectural elements p(c) and proportion cubes for each facies, these proportions then having a triangular distribution defined by the following three values p(c), p(c) and p(c). In particular, the method comprises the calculation of the sum of the plurality of architectural elements of p(c)·⅓(p(c)+p(c)+p(c)) and the determining of a value of expectation of height of liquid hydrocarbon for said column as a function of the sum determined.
