A fluvial depositional unit is characterized by a central axis, denoted as a streamline. A set of streamlines can be used to describe a stratigraphic interval. This event-based (denoted as event-based to avoid confusion with streamline-based flow simulation) approach may be applied to construct stochastic fluvial models for a variety of reservoir types, fluvial styles and systems tracts. Prior models are calculated based on all available soft information and then updated efficiently to honor hard well data.
