Prediction of Formation Pressure Gradients of NC98 Field-Sirte Basin-Libya
Bibliographic record
Abstract
The prediction of formation pore pressure and fracture pressure gradients is a significant step towards the drilling plan. In this study, the formation pressures of twelve wells from NC98 field-Sirte Basin (Waha Oil Company) were calculated by employing empirical methods, Eaton's equations, that depend on the real drilling and well-logging data. Regarding the results, the normal pore pressure in the NC98 field in Sirte basin is 9.89 kPa/m (0.437 Psi/ft), and it is extending from the top of the wells in the investigated area to 2134 m (7,000 ft). A subnormal to normal pore pressure zone is noticed in the interval of 2134 m to 2743 m (7,000 ft. - 9,000 ft). Then, slightly subnormal to somewhat abnormal (overpressure) region is seen from 2743 – 3414 (9,000 ft. - 11,200 ft). Beyond to that depth and down to the top of the reservoir, the overpressure zone was clearly observed. Based on the results, the casing seating depth and the equivalent mud weight were simply determined for the area of study.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human 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 source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
