Abstract

F002 ANALYSIS OF PETROLEUM SYSTEM WITH BASIN SIMULATORS: WHAT HAVE WE LEARNED? WHICH FUTURE? F002.doc J.M. GAULIER M. SACLEUX & J.L. PITTION TOTAL DGEP/GSR/PN/GEOL 2 place de la Coupole 92078 Paris La Défense Cedex FRANCE The Petroleum System precisely formalises the relationships between different sedimentary geochemical tectonic thermal hydrogeological events distributed in space and time which together contribute to the formation of a sequence of resulting hydrocarbon accumulations. Describing the geodynamic evolution of the basin and its geological history “basin modelling” (or more precisely basin evolution numerical simulation) has become an essential technique linked to the P.S. concept.
