Abstract: A method for training a backpropagation-enabled segmentation process is used for identifying an occurrence of a sub-surface feature. A multi-dimensional seismic data set with an input dimension of at least two is inputted into a backpropagation-enabled process. A prediction of the occurrence of the subsurface feature has a prediction dimension of at least 1 and is at least 1 dimension less than the input dimension.

Abstract: A method for improving a backpropagation-enabled process for identifying subsurface features from seismic data involves a model that has been trained with an initial set of training data. A target data set is used to compute a set of initial inferences on the target data set that are combined with the initial training data to define updated training data. The model is trained with the updated training data. Updated inferences on the target data set are then computed. A set of further-updated training data is defined by combining at least a portion of the initial set of training data and at least a portion of the target data and associated updated inferences. The set of further-updated training data is used to train the model. Further-updated inferences on the target data set are then computed and used to identify the occurrence of a user-selected subsurface feature in the target data set.

Abstract: A method for training a backpropagation-enabled regression process is used for predicting values of an attribute of subsurface data.

A predicted value of the attribute has a prediction dimension of at least 1 and is at least 1 dimension less than the input dimension.

Abstract: A method for a method for identifying a subsurface pore-filling fluid and/or lithology. A training set of field-acquired geophysical data and/or simulated geophysical data is provided to train a backpropagation-enabled process. The trained process is used on a field-acquired data set that is not part of the training set to infer presence of a subsurface pore-filling fluid and/or lithology.

Abstract: A method for producing a synthetic model for training a backpropagation-enabled process for identifying subsurface features, includes generating synthetic subsurface models with realizations of subsurface features. The synthetic subsurface models are generated by introducing at least three distinct model variations selected from geologically realistic features simulating the outcome of a geologic process, simulations of geologic processes, simulations of noise sources, and combinations thereof. Labels are applied to one or more of the subsurface features in one or more of the synthetic subsurface models. The labels and the corresponding synthetic subsurface models are imported into the backpropagation-enabled process for training.

Abstract: A method for producing a synthetic model for training a backpropagation-enabled process for identifying subsurface features, includes generating noise-free synthetic subsurface models with realizations of subsurface features. The noise-free synthetic subsurface models are generated by introducing a model variation selected from geologically realistic features simulating the outcome of a geologic process, simulations of geologic processes, and combinations thereof. Labels are applied to one or more of the subsurface features in one or more of the synthetic subsurface models. A simulation of a noise source is applied to a copy of one or more of the noise-free synthetic subsurface models to produce a noise-augmented copy. The labels and the corresponding synthetic subsurface models are imported into the backpropagation-enabled process for training.

Abstract: A method for visualization of multi-dimensional geophysical data involves combining several attributes from multi-dimensional geophysical data or seismic data using color modeling techniques and provides for the interpretation of data more efficiently by a user. A color space is defined and multi-dimensional geophysical data attributes are created along with blending filters, such as asymmetric blending filters. Blended multi-dimensional geophysical data attribute cubes are created from the blending filters and the geophysical data attributes by making a prediction using a deep convolutional neural network trained via a backpropagation-enabled regression process.
