  • Patent number: 11608723
    Abstract: Systems and methods for improving injectivity of a hydrocarbon reservoir include: identifying a restriction of flow from an injection well into the hydrocarbon reservoir; transmitting a series of acoustic waves from an injection well into a formation that includes the hydrocarbon reservoir, wherein the series of acoustic waves are transmitted continuously for at least one day; transmitting a series of seismic waves from the injection well into the formation after the series of acoustic waves are transmitted into the hydrocarbon reservoir, wherein the series of seismic waves are transmitted continuously for at least one week; and injecting water into the injection well to cause hydrocarbon of the hydrocarbon reservoir to flow from the hydrocarbon reservoir to a production well after the series of acoustic waves are transmitted into the hydrocarbon reservoir.

  • Publication number: 20220090481
    Abstract: A method may include obtaining well log data regarding a geological region of interest. The well log data may correspond to logging-while-drilling (LWD) measurements or measurement-while-drilling (MWD) measurements acquired from various wellbores. The method may further include generating image data regarding the geological region of interest using the well log data and a recurrent neural network. The method may further include determining a drilling parameter for a wellbore among the wellbores in real-time using the image data. The drilling parameter may be determined while the well log data is being acquired in the wellbore. The method may further include transmitting, based on the drilling parameter, a command to a drilling system coupled to the wellbore.
