Abstract
In the environmental risk assessment of oil fields, a detailed knowledge of the heterogeneity of groundwater surfaces is absolutely indispensable. Based on theoretical considerations, in order to analyse small-scale heterogeneities, we decided that the Sequential Gaussian Simulation (SGS) approach seemed to be the most appropriate one. This method gives preference to the reproduction of small-scale heterogeneities at the expense of local accuracy. To test whether this kind of heterogeneity of the groundwater level corresponds to sedimentological variability, a point bar of the River Tisza (South-Hungary) was chosen. In variograms, the longest range was derived from the large-scale sedimentological heterogeneity of the point-bar, the medium range was in accordance with the radius of the meander and its direction coincided with the depositional strike of the meander, while the shortest range corresponded to the lateral heterogeneity of the deposits where the ground water level was measured. The similarities and differences of the realizations of SGS express the uncertainty of the map representation of the ground water surface. The E-type estimates of 100 equiprobable realizations resulted in a very detailed surface. The hydraulic gradient map obtained from the E-type estimates can provide us with a better understanding of the local flow characteristics.
