data. Stage and completion information
is used to define productive zones for integrating with the geoscience data.
The initial step in integrating the geoscience and engineering data is to extract

3-D seismic attributes along each wellbore
at or near the stage locations using a statistical sampling method. Next, the extracted attributes are correlated with a
range of production metrics, completion

data and well data to determine the degree
to which variables are correlated. This
also allows the interpreter to understand
the individual relationships each variable
has with production and what type of
transformation may be needed in the multivariate analysis.
The goal for this stage is to leverage
the integration, allowing the statistics to
highlight the meaning of various relationships between production and seismic
attributes. The result of multivariate analysis is to identify the KPIs and determine
the optimal transformation required for
each attribute. Finally, the KPIs are combined to create a 3-D seismically-calibrated
predictive model and maps of production
(or indeed any other response metric).
Based on the input data available, the
process also can determine engineering
best practices, and can facilitate additional
steps to validate the models.
The integrated WPPA workflow can
be repeated and the models can be carried
forward throughout the life of a particular
reservoir or field to identify ideal landing
points for laterals and completion zones
to optimize production.
