When this two-day meeting was proposed, it was certainly not
conceived as a celebration, much less as a party. However, on
reflection, this might have been a wholly appropriate gesture
because geostatistical simulation came of age this year: it is now
21 years since it was first proposed and implemented in the form of
the turning bands method. The impetus for the original development
was the mining industry, principally the problems encountered in
mine planning and design based on smoothed estimates which did not
reflect the degree of variability and detail present in the real,
mined values. The sustained period of development over recent years
has been driven by hydrocarbon applications. In addition to the
original turning bands method there are now at least six other
established methods of geostatistical simulation. Having reached
adulthood, it is entirely appropriate that geostatistical
simulation should now be subjected to an intense period of
reflection and assessment. That we have now entered this period was
evident in many of the papers and much of the discussion at the
Fontainebleau meeting. Many questions were clearly articulated for
the first time and, although many ofthem were not unambiguously
answered, their presentation at the meeting and publication in this
book will generate confirmatory studies and further research.
