An integrated approach to discretized 3D modeling of geomechanical properties for unconventional mature field appraisal in the western Canadian sedimentary basin

Abstract In mature field appraisal and development, discretized geomechanical property models play a vital role in providing information on in situ stress regime as a guide for placement of directional wells. Laboratory methods of measuring these properties, in most cases, take only small samples fr...
