Abstract
A system, method and program product for stratigraphic layer identification using a stratigraphic knowledge base for machine learning. Reservoir data includes seismic data and well log data for a reservoir area. The well log data is processed to identify well stratigraphic layer features and the seismic data is processed to identify seismic stratigraphic layer features. A feature matching algorithm based on a stratigraphic knowledge base is selected to match the well stratigraphic layer features to the seismic stratigraphic layer features. The matched features are used to define a stratigraphic layer interpretation for the reservoir area and the interpretation is presented to a user.
