3D Kinematic Restoration using Kine3D-3 in Aspen SKUA

Understanding past geological states through kinematic restoration is essential for validating structural interpretations and for providing valuable insights on the field’s geological history. It also yields interesting results for various geological modeling applications applied to paleo-environments such as fracture modeling, pore pressure prediction, fault seal analysis, basin modeling, etc.


The goal of this training is to give you the basic skills to execute a complete restoration study inside Aspen SKUA using the KINE3D module, and to teach how to best analyze the restoration results.


Using different datasets, you will progress through a series of comprehensive exercises and case studies with increasing complexity designed to teach you how to use the kinematic restoration module in different geological settings.

Audience:

Geophysicists, structural geologists, geological modelers and geomechanical engineers
