Abstract

The aim of this work is to evaluate the prospective areas with good hydro carbon reservoir quality by using machine learning approaches to classify seismic traces. Quality of reservoir described by lithological features is encoded in the shape of seismic trace. Detection of good reservoir units is difficult due to their small thicknesses. A traditional manual interpretation performed on a set of 2D seismic profiles, covering license block, has detected a region with good reservoir quality. Based on these results the automatic procedure is offered to get the quick-look evaluation of the most perspective areas for development drilling.
