Modelling discontinuous well log signal to identify lithological boundaries via wavelet analysis: An example from KTB borehole data

Abstract: Identification of sharp and discontinuous lithological boundaries from well log signal stemming from heterogeneous subsurface structures assumes a special significance in geo-exploration studies. Well log data acquired from various geological settings generally display nonstationary/nonlinear characteristics with varying wavelengths and frequencies. Modelling of such complex well-log signals using the conventional signal processing techniques either fails to catch-up abrupt boundaries or at the best, do not pr… Show more

“…There are many decomposition methods for wavelet decomposition, as long as the direct sum of the set of subspaces can cover the V space without overlapping each other. Wavelet decomposition is actually just a special case of wavelet packet decomposition [22]. The diverse and flexible decomposition characteristics of wavelet provide the possibility to select the optimal decomposition according to different purposes [23,24].…”

“…This is the reason why oil companies use different probes to gather information about the oil field in order to estimate the probability, presence and quantity of oil or gas on that certain field. The analysis of well logs has been relied over the years as a very powerful tool to aid analysts on deciding whether a field is suitable for exploration or not (see [6]).…”
