Automated Well-Log Depth Matching – 1D Convolutional Neural Networks Vs. Classic Cross Correlation
Torres Caceres, Veronica Alejandra; Duffaut, Kenneth; Yazidi, Anis; Westad, Frank Ove; Johansen, Yngve Bolstad (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)During drilling and logging, depth alignment of well logs acquired in the same borehole section at different times is a vital preprocessing step before any petrophysical analysis. Depth alignment requires high precision ... -
Burial induced changes in physical sandstone properties: A case-study of North Sea and Norwegian Sea sandstone formations
Blazevic V., Lara A.; Duffaut, Kenneth; Avseth, Per Åge (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)The changes in physical properties of sandstones with burial depth are a result of mechanical and chemical compaction processes. These processes are affected by rock microstructure, pressure regimes and temperature history. ... -
Contribution of Rock Physics Laboratory Tests and Modelling to Improving Uplift Estimates
Torset, Sondre; Duffaut, Kenneth; Holt, Rune Martin (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Most currently applied procedures for uplift estimation rely on assumptions that porosity and seismic / log measured velocity are unaltered by the uplift process. Laboratory experiments have been performed with synthetic ... -

Enhanced lithological description of the Jurassic sequence in the Viking Graben and Oseberg Terrace using machine learning
Bøe, Harald Wie (Master thesis, 2018)Automatic classifications of well logs using machine learning techniques has gained improved attention within the last couple of years among others for increasing the accuracy and speed of lithofacies prediction on wireline ... -
Estimating Horizontal Resistivity Trends in Sedimentary Rocks: A Case Example from the Northern North Sea
Duffaut, Kenneth; Wang, Ying; Nordskag, Janniche Iren (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)Understanding the major controlling factors on the horizontal resistivity-depth trends of sedimentary rocks in any given basin around the world are interesting from both scientific and commercial perspectives. Hence, we ... -
Estimating Net Erosion in the Western Barents Sea
Elks, Richard Anthony (Master thesis, 2016)Quantification of uplift and erosion in the western Barents Sea has been a relevant and challenging problem for geoscientists for several decades. Uplift and erosion processes have implications for petroleum prospectivity, ... -
Estimation of Anisotropy Parameters and AVO modeling of the Troll Field, North Sea
Haktorson, Hilde (Master thesis, 2012)In the work of this Master's thesis, the anisotropy parameters, epsilon and delta, for the reservoir and the cap rock on the Troll Field have been estimated. This was done using well logs from 35 wells, including the P-wave ... -
Estimation of Barents Sea uplift by comparison of linear trend lines from well log properties
Erichsen, Stian Werner (Master thesis, 2017)Linear trends of measured well log properties have been compared in this thesis, to see if uplift in the Barents Sea can be estimated. Reference trends from areas that have not been uplifted, wells 15/9-6, 34/7-1, 34/7-5 ... -
Estimation of Timeshifts and Velocity Changes from 4D Seismic Analysis: A Case Study from the Norne Field
