The evolution of oil and gas reservoirs development parameters prediction has received new opportunities due to the development of digital technologies and computing power. The idea and first experiments in the use of artificial neural networks for various kinds of applied problems as classification of workover actions, automatic interpretation of geophysical well logging and core analyses results can be considered as an important milestone for the oil industry. The application of machine learning for reservoir development parameters prediction is currently a pressing and unresolved issue. Disputes arising in attempts to industrialize this technology are associated with so-called black box a situation when the constructed model cannot explain physical laws and it is almost impossible to track intermediate results in the process of calculating non-linear dependencies. Given the problems described above, the current best practice is to combine machine learning models and physically meaningful analytical models as described in this paper.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
