Abstract
A computer implemented method for analyzing a reservoir grid modeling a reservoir geological formation is provided in which the reservoir grid corresponds to a 3D grid of cells associated to respective values of at least one geological property. The method includes obtaining a 4D seismic image of the reservoir geological formation. A skeleton of the 4D seismic image is calculated, and the skeleton extends between at least one origin and a plurality of extremities. Each point of the skeleton is associated to a value of the at least one geological property of the reservoir grid. Flow time values are calculated for a fluid flowing from the origin to the extremities along the skeleton, based on the at least one geological property values associated to the points of the skeleton. The reservoir grid is calculated based on the flow time values.
