    Abstract: An apparatus includes a subsurface sensor for use in a borehole to provide a subsurface measurement series, a subsurface processor to receive the subsurface measurement series, and a machine-readable medium. The machine-readable medium has program code to cause the apparatus to obtain the subsurface measurement series and generate an atom combination based on the subsurface measurement series using the subsurface processor, wherein the atom combination comprises a subset of atoms from a dictionary. The code also has instructions to generate a set of characterizing values and transmit the set of characterizing values to a different physical location, wherein the set of characterizing values comprises an atom identifier and at least one corresponding atom weight for at least one atom from the atom combination.

    Abstract: Mutual-complementary modeling and testing methods are disclosed that can enable validated mapping from external oil and gas information sources to existing fluid optical databases through the use of forward and inverse neural networks. The forward neural networks use fluid compositional inputs to produce fluid principal spectroscopy components (PSC). The inverse neural networks apply PSC inputs to estimate fluid compositional outputs. The fluid compositional data from external sources can be tested through forward models first. The produced PSC outputs are then entered as inputs to inverse models to generate fluid compositional data. The degree of matching between reconstructed fluid compositions and the original testing data suggests which part of the new data can be integrated directly into the existing database as validated mapping. The applications of using PSC inputs to reconstruct infrared spectra and estimate oil-based-mud (OBM) contamination with endmember spectral fingerprints are also included.

    Abstract: Two or more Integrated Computational Element (“ICE”) structures are designed and utilized in an optical computing device to combinatorily reconstruct spectral patterns of a sample. To design the ICE structures, principal component analysis (“PCA”) loading vectors are derived from training spectra. Thereafter, two or more ICE structures having spectral patterns that match the PCA loading vectors are selected. The selected ICE structures may then be fabricated and integrated into an optical computing device. During operation, the ICE structures are used to reconstruct high resolution spectral data of the samples which is utilized to determine a variety of sample characteristics.

    Abstract: System and methods for downhole fluid classification are provided. Measurements are obtained from one or more downhole sensors located along a current section of wellbore within a subsurface formation. The measurements obtained from the one or more downhole sensors are transformed into principal spectroscopy component (PSC) data. One or more fluid types are identified for the current section of the wellbore within the subsurface formation, based on the PSC data and a fluid classification model. The fluid classification model is refined for one or more subsequent sections of the wellbore within the subsurface formation, based at least partly on the one or more fluid types identified for the current section of the wellbore.

    Abstract: A method includes obtaining a plurality of master sensor responses with a master sensor in a set of training fluids and obtaining node sensor responses in the set of training fluids. A linear correlation between a compensated master data set and a node data set is then found for a set of training fluids and generating node sensor responses in a tool parameter space from the compensated master data set on a set of application fluids. A reverse transformation is obtained based on the node sensor responses in a complete set of calibration fluids. The reverse transformation converts each node sensor response from a tool parameter space to the synthetic parameter space, and uses transformed data as inputs of various fluid predictive models to obtain fluid characteristics. The method includes modifying operation parameters of a drilling or a well testing and sampling system according to the fluid characteristics.
