8 Common Approach and Its Problems Interpolate at the finest scale feasible, commonly through spatial statistical methods, to incorporate sparse fine-scale field data Reservoir model with fine-scale cells everywhere regardless of data availability Some fine-scale feature still missing or misrepresented The process is often slow (12-18 months for one model) Many highly uncertain model parameters introduced (e.g., model parameters away from well controls) Aggravating the curse of dimensionality 8
