Abstract
Determination of an in-situ stress perturbation model for a subsurface geological structure by using potential fields data. Potential fields data, such as gravity data, may be obtained and attributes may be determined from the gravity data. Lineaments that define the structural framework of the basement may be derived from an interpretation of the attributes. The lineaments may be combined with an in-situ stress direction and used as constraints in a finite element geomechanical simulation to generate the in-situ stress perturbation model.
