A key to working with subsurface fractures and in static fracture modeling is having good quality, well ‐constrained, structural maps for the horizons of interest. This allows for quality interpretations of geological structures, such as folds and faults, and the location of significant structural discontinuities such as fracture corridors. Generally, structural maps based solely on 2D seismic control are not of sufficient detail for fracture prediction. In general, the primary application for modeling we get from well‐constrained structural maps and digital surfaces is in the form of local shape changes of the surfaces, particularly those that have a linear trend to them. These can be broken down into discontinuity analysis and lineation analysis. Linear discontinuities in structural surfaces are often associated with areas of increased fracture intensity or fracture corridors. The most frequently utilized technique for defining and predicting important natural fracture‐related discontinuities in structural surfaces is surface curvature.
