Study on Artificial Neural Networks to Identify Sedimentary Microfacies
Based on a number of stratigraphic sedimentary information included in log data, application of the Artificial Neural Network to identify sedimentary microfacies from well logging data can complete the series auto-interpreting. The application can improve the auto-interpreting accuracy and make us get more satisfied results. Ten parameters from the well logging curves are selected for to describing their shape characteristics when the deposition patterns of 8 in gas-bearing formation of Upper Paleozoic group, Ordos basin are studied. Effective parameters were selected on the basis of cores, and based on artificial neural network pattern recognition technique; the sedimentary microfacies of well cross section were auto-interpreted. About 300 wells and the results were interpreted by using the software. The software will be fit for the researchers who have the experiences of geological interpretation and some backgrounds of local geology.
