Abstract
Majority of the oil and gas reservoirs, in the main hydrocarbon production regions around the world, are naturally fractured reservoirs. Fractures play an important role in reservoir fluid flow either in the form of high permeable complex conduits or strong permeability anisotropies. Realistic characterization of naturally fractured reservoirs requires an exhaustive understanding of fracture connectivity and fracture pattern geometry. These subsequently demand description of many fracture parameters such as density (intensity), spacing, orientation, size and aperture. Therefore, a first step in fractured reservoirs characterization is the static geometric modeling of the subsurface fracture...
