Machine Learning-Based Probabilistic Lithofacies Prediction from Conventional Well Logs: A Case from the Umiat Oil Field of Alaska
A good understanding of different rock types and their distribution is critical to locate oil and gas accumulations in the subsurface. Traditionally, rock core samples are used to directly determine the exact rock facies and what geological environments might be present. Core samples are often expen...
