Abstract

Artificial Intelligence (Al) systems have been used with some success in the areas of dipmeter interpretation, quantitative log interpretation and well-to-well correlation. A prototype expert system has been developed using a rule-based approach to lithology identification. Extensions of the system are now being considered to do mineral identification for the problem of mineral model construction for multi-mineral log interpretation algorithms.
