Abstract
A method is described for assessing subsurface structure uncertainty based on at least one subsurface horizon. The method calculates seismic continuity attributes to determine a mappability of the subsurface horizon(s); determines horizontal uncertainty for each fault in vertical uncertainty for each horizon; generates probabilistic scenarios for a subsurface geometry for at least one conceptual model; and generates a map of geological model uncertainty based on the probabilistic scenarios. In some embodiments, the probabilistic scenarios are stochastic simulations. In some embodiments, generating a map of geological model uncertainty is based on information entropy. The method may be executed by a computer system.
