between reality and model is therefore essential, because it is a unique opportunity to improve the model.
Especially scaling issues between the training image and the model grid are sensitive for features like
noise or continuous layers. Two relatively closely spaced wells can give problems as well when for instance
their stratigraphy differs significantly.
The final result that is believed to represent the Favignana calcarenite on a hydrocarbon reservoir scale is
thus obtained (figure 6.2). Two cross-sections are created; XX’ is approximately parallel to the transport
direction, while YY’ is orientated perpendicular to the main flow direction. In order to compare the
resulting model with the field data — the stratigraphic logs at pseudo well locations — a well fence is
shown in the ZZ’ window. The trajectory from Scalo Cavallo via Cala Rossa, Punta San Vituzzo and
Bue Marino to Cala Azzurra covers all the pseudo well locations. A series of close-ups of respectively
Scalo Cavallo with Cala Rossa, Bue Marino, and Cala Azzurra is provided in figure D.5 in appendix D.
