Welcome to the AUDRI website
This is the completely rewritten version of the website: new layout, all sections rewritten to improve clarity, many more images, greatly improved navigation, new content. A primary aim is to make more obvious what is inside - so each major section has a much more detailed index page, and it is easier to jump into sub-sections.
Look out for the new Topic Thread navigation (top left and top right) to guide you through longer sections.
Look in Reservoirs and Analogues section for a guide to conceptual and numerical reservoir modelling.
Tell us what you think, share ideas or ask questions, through the Feedback section.
Deltas and fluvial fans produce very different sand body connectivity and geometry - fans have radiating channels but they are NOT distributary
There are no reliable modern analogues for the terminal fan facies model, and it is flawed on many other counts too - it should be abandoned!!
Models for meandering river reservoirs usually over-estimate sand-body connectivity because it is assumed such rivers produce shoe-string ribbons of sand that are well-connected along the valley - this is rarely true.
