Wellbore scale results
The compaction-induced deformations that drive subsidence and shearing on the
field-scale were used as a basis for displacements applied to the wellbore scale
model. At the beginning of the field-scale simulation, all nodes were vertically
aligned, as shown in Figure 11.7. Vertical lines of nodes were identified with
wells, where a given well location was determined from its field coordinates and
