Faults

Use Faults tool to intersect components classified as Faults and Horizons.

Faults are generally interpreted separately from other geo-bodies and commonly have a different, disconnected, discretization. A key geo- model building step is connecting these fault(s) to the rest of the domain in a geologically reasonably and consistent way. Until now the process of finding, resolving, honoring and, often, stitching the numerous intersections between fault(s) and other geo-features necessary to achieve this was long and laborious. GeoD-Pre simplifies and automates many of the procedures required whilst allowing complete user control of all aspects of the process. There could be intersections between faults-horizons, and/or between two faults. Using the Faults tool, you can fix such intersection issues.

Fault and horizons are intersecting without mesh interaction	After the process, the fault and horizon mesh are intersected and nodes are equivalenced; Intersecting fault is split into two components under same part.

From GeoD ribbon, Fix group, select Faults.
