  Representing the complete spectrum of fine-scale stratigraphic details in full-field dynamic models of geologically complex clastic reservoirs is beyond the limits of existing computational capabilities. A quasiglobal multiphase upscaling method—the regional-scale multiphase upscaling (RMU) method—is developed, in which the dynamic effects of subgrid-scale (typically subseismic) nonlocal stratigraphic reservoir elements (e.g., channels, lobes, sand bars, …
