Claim 13:
14. The method of claim 13, wherein processing the well placement sequences to reduce the number of well placement sequences in the set comprises:
receiving, from a user, one or more decision parameters, the one or more decision parameters including at least a distance parameter;
calculating a pairwise distance for each well placement sequence in the set;
calculating a distance for each of the well placement sequences to reach one or more of the areas of interest indicative of predicted hydrocarbon saturation; and
reducing the number of well placement sequences in the set by removing a particular well placement sequences when:
the pairwise distance is less than the distance parameter between wells, or the distance to reach one or more of the areas of interest indicative of predicted hydrocarbon saturation is greater than the distance parameter.
