![]() This leads to a second model that contributes to reservoir applications through estimating the reservoir’s volume and storage capacities. ![]() A first model simulates the spatial distribution of the depositional environments, which were further coded into relative proportions of sand, shale, evaporites and carbonates. Its purpose is to construct a deterministic 3-D model for (1) studying the connectivity of the Minjur Sandstone, and (2) illustrating a typical fluvio-deltaic reservoir and its associated heterogeneity. This paper builds on a previous study that focused on the facies, stratigraphy, and reservoir characterisation of the Minjur Sandstone at the Khashm al Khalta type locality. To address this issue we selected the Minjur Sandstone Formation, a groundwater-bearing formation of Triassic age in Central Saudi Arabia, for complex reservoir modelling, simulation and prediction of the spatial distribution of sand bodies in a fluvio-deltaic system. ![]() ![]() The increasing demand on geological reservoirs, whether for developing geothermal energy or for CO 2 geological storage, raises questions on how reservoir heterogeneity might increase or decrease reservoir performance.
