Fault Modeling Generations of fault pillars, known as Key Pillars, are lines defining the slope and shape of the fault. There are up to five, so called Shape Points along each of these lines to adjust the shape of the fault to perfectly match your input data. The Key Pillars are generated based on input data such as fault surfaces, fault sticks, fault lines, fault polygons, structural maps, interpreted seismic lines, etc. In the previous section, we did some editing on the input data to bring it to a form suitable to Petrel for building the 3D geological model. In this section we will start building the model. The building process may be decomposed into the following steps: Defining a New Model. Creating Faults from Fault Polygons. Editing Key Pillars. Building Key Pillars from Fault Polygons. Connecting Faults. Disconnecting Faults. Creating Branched and Crossing Faults. Creating Faults from Selected Sticks. Creating Faults from All Fault Sticks. Automatic Generation of Faults. Automatic Connection of Faults. And Automatic Adjustment of Key Pillars.
