Abstract Multipoint statistics(MPS)geological modeling technology has been put forward for more than 20 years,and it has become the international frontier research direction of reservoir geological modeling. Great progress has been made in both theory and application of MPS geological modeling technology. Taking the development history of MPS as the main clue,and the technical progress of MPS as the core,the paper discussed the research progress of MPS,classified the main MPS methods and systematically discussed the principle,characteristics and existing problems of potential MPS geological modeling methods. Finally,MPS geological models of porous carbonate Reservoir S in Zagros Basin were set up,and pros and cons of the MPS and sequential indicator simulation(SIS)were compared. Research shows that MPS has obvious advantages in complex facies modeling compared with SIS,and Dispat,a pattern-based modeling method,makes the facies distribution more accordant with the geological understanding of geologists by utilizing the strategy of replacing data event with pattern. The research results provide a new geological modeling method for porous carbonate reservoirs,and could be a reference for geological modeling of similar reservoirs.
