Seismic facies analysis plays important roles in geological research, especially in sedimentary environment identification. Traditional method is mainly based on seismic waveform or attributes of a single seismic gather to classify the seismic facies. Ignoring the correlation between adjacent seismic gathers leads to poor lateral continuities in generated facies map, which cannot fit the sedime…
Logs are valuable information for oil and gas fields as they help to determine the lithology of the formations surrounding the borehole and the location and reserves of subsurface oil and gas reservoirs. However, important logs are often missing in horizontal or old wells, which poses a challenge in field applications. To address this issue, conventional methods involve supplementing the missin…
Earthquake early warning (EEW) is one of the important tools to reduce the hazard of earthquakes. In contemporary seismology, EEW is typically transformed into a fast classification of earthquake magnitude, i.e., large magnitude earthquakes that require warning are in the positive category and vice versa in the negative category. However, the current standard information signal processing routi…
Seismic inversion, such as velocity and impedance, is an ill-posed problem. To solve this problem, swarm intelligence (SI) algorithms have been increasingly applied as the global optimization approach, such as differential evolution (DE) and particle swarm optimization (PSO). Based on the well logs, the sparse probability distribution (PD) of the reflectivity distribution is spatial stationarit…
Noise suppression is an important part of microseismic monitoring technology. Signal and noise can be separated by denoising and filtering to improve the subsequent analysis. In this paper, we propose a new denoising method based on convolutional blind denoising network (CBDNet). The method is partially modified for image denoising network CBDNet to make it suitable for one–dimensional data d…
Resource-rich shale gas plays a pivotal role in new energy types. The key to scientifically and efficiently developing shale gas fields is to clarify the main factors that affect the production of shale gas wells. In this paper, according to the shale gas reservoir characteristic of the Fuling marine Longmaxi Formation, a single-well geological model was established using the reservoir numerica…
Modern geodynamics is based on the study of a large set of models, with the variation of many parameters, whose analysis in the future will require Machine Learning to be analyzed. We introduce here for the first time how a formulation of the Lattice Boltzmann Method capable of modeling plate tectonics, with the introduction of plastic non-linear rheology, is able to reproduce the breaking of t…
A carbonate build-up or reef is a thick carbonate deposit consisting of mainly skeletal remains of organisms that can be large enough to develop a favourable topography. Delineation of such geologic features provides important input in understanding the basin's evolution and petroleum prospects. Here, we introduce a new attribute called the Reef Cube (RC) meta-attribute that has been computed b…
Multiple-Point Simulation (MPS) is a geostatistical simulation technique commonly used to model complex geological patterns and subsurface heterogeneity. There have been a great variety of implementation methods developed within MPS, of which Patch-Based Simulation is a more recently developed class. While we have witnessed great progress in Patch-Based algorithms lately, they are still faced w…
Frosts are one of the atmospheric phenomena with one of the larger negative effects on the agricultural sector in the southern region of Brazil, therefore, an earlier forecast can minimize their impacts. In the present work, artificial neural networks (ANNs) techniques were applied in order to improve the predicting capabilities of frost events in southern Brazil. In the study, two multilayer p…
