Uncertainty-Driven Modeling of Microporosity and Permeability in Clastic Reservoirs Using Random Forest

Risha, Muhammad, Elsaadany, Mohamed, Liu, Paul

arXiv.org Artificial Intelligence

Predicting microporosity and permeability in clastic reservoirs is a challenge in reservoir quality assessment, especially in formations where direct measurements are difficult or expensive. These reservoir properties are fundamental in determining a reser voir's capacity for fluid storage and transmission, yet conventional methods for evaluating them, such as Mercury Injection Capillary Pressure (MICP) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), are resource - intensive. The aim of this study is to develop a cost - effective machine learning model to predict complex reservoir properties using readily available field data and basic laboratory analyses. A Random Forest classifier was employed, utilizing key geological parameters such as porosity, grain size distri bution, and spectral gamma - ray (SGR) measurements. An uncertainty analysis was applied to account for natural variability, expanding the dataset, and enhancing the model's robustness. The model achieved a high level of accuracy in predicting microporosity (93%) and permeability levels (88%). By using easily obtainable data, this model reduces the reliance on expensive laboratory methods, making it a valuable tool for early - stage exploration, especially in remote or offshore environments. The integration of machine learning with uncertainty analysis provides a reliable and cost - effective approach for evaluating key reservoir properties in siliciclastic formations. This model offers a practical solution to improve reservoir quality assessments, enabling more i nformed decision - making and optimizing exploration efforts.

Essentially, a connection graph is merely a data structure for a set of clauses indicating possible system. To use the graph, one has to introduce operations on the graph.
