| dc.description.abstract | This thesis provides a 2D geomechanical model for the K-R field, Bredasdorp Basin and
describes the workflow and process to do so. This study has a unique density correction
software applied to density data, prior to the estimation of geopressure gradients. The aim of
this research is to create a model that evaluates the geomechanical behaviour of the upper
shallow marine reservoir (USM) and provide a safe drilling mud window for future in the area. | |
