Computer-Based Subsurface Mapping
Subsurface maps built from software grids drive prospect evaluation, volume estimates, well placement and reservoir models, yet the gridding process is often poorly understood. This course explains how gridding algorithms and parameters shape the final map and how to build, check and edit grids with confidence.
