Abstract
Summary
In this study we show how we can combine basin modeling principles with rock physics models. We apply the Walderhaug diagenetic modeling approach to simulate porosity and rock texture evolution during geological time, and use these as input to contact theory rock physics models which allows us to predict seismic properties as a function of the burial history. We also demonstrate how this approach can be used to estimate tectonic uplifts, and show an example from the Barents Sea.
