Abstract:
Well log data may be used in well log operations by facilitating the identification of hydrogen carbon deposits. More specifically, the well log data may be used to generate visual representations. Aspects of the present disclosure relate to generating a color composite image based on multiple types of well log data and transforming the well log data into a color space. In further embodiments, the color composite image may be modified and/or objects within the color composite image may be identified.
Abstract:
The disclosure relates to a method and system for downhole processing of data, such as images, including using a set of downhole sensors to measure parameters relative to the borehole at a plurality of depths and azimuths and detecting predetermined features of the borehole, using a downhole processor, with a trained machine-learning model and extracting characterization data, characterizing the shape and position of the predetermined features that are transmitted to the surface. It also provides a method and system for providing an image of a geological formation at the surface including transmitting a first dataset to the surface that will be used for reconstructing an image at the surface, downhole processing of a second dataset to detect predetermined features and extract characterization data that are transmitted at the surface and displaying a combined image comprising the predetermined features overlaid on the first image.

Abstract:
Embodiments of the disclosure involve a method comprising computing a true stratigraphic thickness (“TST”) index based on one or more dynamic images, one or more measurement images, or combinations thereof. Computing the TST index comprises outputting a dynamic image value channel comprising a median value on each depth of the one or more dynamic images, a dynamic normalized image value channel comprising a normalization of the dynamic image value channel, a measurement image value channel comprising a median value on each depth of the measurement image, and the TST index. The method also involves computing a decomposition channel based on the TST, extracting lamination boundaries from the dynamic image value channel based on the decomposition channel, and computing the lamination properties based on the lamination boundaries.

Abstract:
A method for determining a fracture aperture of a fracture aperture in a wellbore comprises measuring a resistivity of the wellbore with a downhole tool in a wellbore for obtaining an image of the wellbore. Based on the image, the method detects fractures in the wellbore, and calculates a fracture aperture of the detected fracture according to a predetermined model of the wellbore set up based on hypothesis relative to the configuration of the wellbore. Then, the method estimates a correction to the predetermined model when at least one of the hypothesis is not met, and determines an uncertainty range for the fracture aperture also using a measured parameter.
