DUG Rock is an interactive tool for depth dependent end-member lithology trend interpretation. The trends form a statistical rock physics model which can be used for stochastic forward modelling.

Features of DUG Rock

• Easy point, click, and drag interpretation for picking end-member lithologies
• Rapid QC is enabled by interactive updates and synchronised navigation between logs, cross plots, and tabulated pick data for multiple wells
• Generation of depth-dependent, end-member trends which capture the inherent scatter in elastic rock properties
• Create and import reference and composite lithology trends for comparative displays
• Gassmann fluid substitution to correct trends (of porous lithologies) back to a common reference fluid
• Depth-dependent stochastic forward modelling (Monte Carlo simulation) of AVO and rock properties
• Flexible crossplot displays including 1D and 2D probability density functions (PDFs)
• Create different fluid and lithology combinations using mixing models and Gassmann fluid substitution

Benefits

• Correctly predicts changing AVO behaviour with depth
• Rigorous QC of end members for accurate lithology prediction
• Understand how rock properties and AVO change with depth, fluid content and lithological variations
• Understand if AVO or particular rock properties aid in the discrimination of different lithology and fluid combinations
• Identify inversion strategy to best discriminate fluid and lithology
• Understand most likely and population behaviour, as a result of inherent scatter in rock properties
• High performance – all DUG Software is fully threaded and 64-bit
• Runs on Linux, Windows, and Mac OS X
