Abstract
When budgets are tight, a reservoir model needs updating, a deadline is looming or the seismic quality is poor, there is a mindset amongst the subsurface community that a quick interpretation/model build is sufficient. This mindset can lead to blind spots in the space and frequency/scale domains of interpretation, with potentially significant consequences for 3D reservoir modeling. We promote awareness of these blind spots and clear communication of data gaps and assumptions across disciplines during complete reservoir model building.
