Quantifying uncertainty on petroleum system effectiveness and expressing probabilistic distribution of critical factors ensuring confident decision in a risk-prone environment
The number of input parameters necessary to build basin models, the uncertainty frequently associated
with some of these parameters (e.g., thermal regimes, source rock richness, fault behavior, ...) and their complex interactions in the chain of processes controlling hydrocarbon occurrence in sedimentary basin requires a tool for exploring and quantifying the uncertainty of basin modeling results (e.g.: source rock maturity, pressure distribution, hydrocarbon saturation, ...).
Temis risk module offers a systematic and effective solution encompassing all these intimately-coupled phenomena. Temis risk module uses experimental design and surface response methods to express basin modeling results in a probabilistic manner.
