Abstract Carbon capture and sequestration technology has been a ground-breaking tool in tackling carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) emissions worldwide but limitedly researched practised Africa at present. Considering the vast growth developmental level continent, there is need to consider this option of mitigating global climate change. In study, systematic process-based incorporation seismic well logs da...

Well log data are routinely used for stratigraphic interpretation of the earth’s subsurface. This paper investigates using a co-evolutionary fuzzy system to generate a well log interpreter that can automatically process well log data and interpret reservoir permeability. The methodology consists of 3 steps: 1) transform well log data into fuzzy symbols which maintain the character of the origin...

Well log data are routinely used for stratigraphic interpretation of the earth’s subsurface. This paper presents an automatic blocking scheme that transforms numerical well log data into a fuzzy symbolic representation. This representation maintains the character of the original log curves, which is essential for the stratigraphic interpretation, while making the interpretation task easier. Add...

We evaluated a semiautomatic method for well-to-seismic tying to improve correlation results and reproducibility of the procedure. In the manual procedure, the interpreter first creates a synthetic trace from edited well logs, determines the most appropriate bulk time shift and polarity, and then applies a minimum amount of stretching and squeezing to best match the observed data. The last step...

A method for 3D modeling and interpretation of log properties from complex seismic attributes (obtained from 3D post stack seismic data) is developed by integrating Principal Component Analysis and Local Linear Modeling. Complex seismic attributes have non-linear relationships with petrophysical properties of rocks. These complicated relationships can be approximated using statistical methods. ...

The main purpose of this study is to estimate hydrocarbon potentialities Yamama Formation (Valanginian–Early Hauterivian) by using assessment technique links up between gamma ray spectrometry logs and other conventional open hole for determining the petrophysical properties units in Subba oil-field oil water contact as well. Lower (YB); considered reservoir unit, aptly composed shallow high dep...

Here in, an application of a new seismic inversion algorithm in one of Iran’s oilfields is described. Stochastic (geostatistical) seismic inversion, as a complementary method to deterministic inversion, is perceived as contribution combination of geostatistics and seismic inversion algorithm. This method integrates information from different data sources with different scales, as prior informat...
