Data-driven modeling of heavy oil viscosity in the reservoir from geophysical well logs
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Viscosity is the most crucial fluid property on recovery and productivity of hydrocarbon reservoirs, more particularly heavy oil reservoirs. In heavy and extra heavy oil reservoirs e.g. bitumen and tar sands more energy is required to be injected into the system in order to decrease the viscosity to make the flow easier. Therefore, attempt to develop a reliable and rapid method for accurate estimation of heavy oil viscosity is inevitable. In this study, a predictive model for estimating of heavy oil viscosity is proposed, utilizing geophysical well logs data including gamma ray, neutron porosity, density porosity, resistivity logs, spontaneous potential as well as P-wave velocity and S-wave velocity and their ratio (Vp/Vs). To this end, a supervised machine learning algorithm, namely least square support vector machine (LSSVM), has been employed for modeling, and a dataset was provided from well logs data in a Canadian heavy oil reservoir, the Athabasca North area. The results indicate that the predicted viscosity values are in agreement with the actual data with correlation coefficient (R2) of 0.84. Furthermore, the outlier detection analysis conducted shows that only one data point is out of the applicability of domain of the develop model.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
