The purpose of this paper is to present the method of acquiring 3D GIS data using the statistical estimating methods of Well Log for balancing Seismic data. We use the reflection coefficients of seismic data to get the parameters for the reservoir characterization and we balance the reflection coefficients of seismic data using well log to increase the confidence of the estimated result. Well logs are required to balance the reflection coefficients at the point where seismic data are acquired. In this research, we discuss the geostatistical estimation methods and we applied these methods to real data. Kriging gives high weights to the close well logs, which means estimated results are mainly affected by close well log. High value of cross variograms gave big difference on cokriging result comparing to kriging results and low value of cross variogram gave little differences.

In general, well log and core data have been utilized for reservoir characterization. These well data can provide valuable information on reservoir properties with high vertical resolution at well locations. While the seismic surveys cover large areas of field but give only indirect features about reservoir properties. Therefore it is possible to estimate the reservoir properties guided by seismic data on entire area if a relationship of seismic data and well data can be defined. Seismic attributes calculated from seismic surveys contain the particular reservoir features, so that they should be extracted and used properly according to the purpose of study. The method to select the suitable seismic attributes among enormous ones is needed. The stepwise regression and fuzzy curve analysis based on fuzzy logics are used for selecting the best attributes. The relationship can be utilized to estimate reservoir properties derived from seismic attributes. This methodology is applied to a synthetic seismogram and a sonic log acquired from velocity model. Seismic attributes calculated from the seismic data are reflection strength, instantaneous phase, instantaneous frequency and pseudo sonic logging data as well as seismic trace. The fuzzy curve analysis is used for choosing the best seismic attributes compared to sonic log as well data, so that seismic trace, reflection strength, instantaneous frequency, and pseudo sonic logging data are selected. The relationship between the seismic attribute and well data is found out by the statistical regression method and estimates the reliable well data at a specific field location derived from only seismic attributes. For a future work in this study, the methodology should be checked an applicability of the real fields with more complex and various reservoir features.

In this paper, when the parameter of interest is the shape parameter in Pareto distribution, we develop likelihood based inference for this parameter. Specially, we develop signed log-likelihood ratio statistic and the modified signed log-likelihood ratio statistic for the shape parameter. It is well-known that as sample size grows, the modified signed log-likelihood ratio statistic converges to standard normal distribution faster than the signed log-likelihood ratio statistic. But the computation of the modified signed log-likelihood statistic is hard or even impossible when the sufficient statistics and the ancillary statistics are not clear. In this case, one can consider an approximation to the modified signed log-likelihood statistic. Specially, when the parameter of interest is informationally orthogonal to the nuisance parameters, we propose the approximate modified signed log-likelihood statistic. Through simulation, we investigate the performances of the proposed statistics with the signed log-likelihood statistic.

Geophysical well logging at various coal fields were carried out to study the characteristic response of domestic coal seams. Also a computer program is developed for quantitative analysis of coal logging data. Most coal seams penetrated by the drill holes, where the well logging were carried out, showed poor thickness and quality, and were severely altered. Therefore, majority of log data are inadequate for detailed quantitative analysis. The logs show, however, typical characteristics with related to coal seams, but interpretation should be made with caution because certain log response of demestic coals, mostly anthracite, are quite different to those of foreign coals, mostly bituminous. The developed comuter program has been proved as an effective one for identification of coal seams and lithology anslysis, and is expected to be succesfully used for coal quality analysis in cases of more diversified log data of good quality being obtained.

This work is proposed an alternative identification method of outlying cell which is one of important issues in categorical data analysis. One finds that there is a strong relationship between the location of an outlying cell and the corresponding parameter estimates of the well-fitted log-linear model. Among parameters of log-linear model, an outlying cell is affected by interaction terms rather than main effect terms. Hence one could identify an outlying cell by investigating of parameter estimates in an appropriate log-linear model.

Big data management is becoming increasingly important in both industry and academia of information science community. One of the important categories of big data generated from software systems is log data. Log data is generally used for better services in various service providers and can also be used as information for qualification. This paper presents a big data management architecture specialized for log data. Specifically, it provides the aggregation of log messages sent from multiple clients and provides intelligent functionalities such as analyzing log data. The proposed architecture supports an asynchronous process in client-server architectures to prevent the potential bottleneck of accessing data. Accordingly, it does not affect the client performance although using remote data store. We implement the proposed architecture and show that it works well for processing big log data. All components are implemented based on open source software and the developed prototypes are now publicly available.

Log density data were collected and compared with the core density data throughout the southern Korean Peninsula. The comparison reveals that the log densities obtained from gamma-gamma log are much lower than the core densities obtained from laboratory density measurement of core samples. The anomalously low log densities can be attributed to the small-source density log data. Correlation analysis reveals differences between densities derived from the two methods, indicating that a data quality problem arises when using small-source log data. The problem is probably due to the fact that small-source data have not been obtained under ideal conditions for maintaining the appropriate relationship between gamma response and formation density. The frequency distribution characteristics of formation density in the southern Korean Peninsula could be determined using the core and the standard-source log data which are well-correlated.

This paper describes an effective utilization method of well logging data and boring cores for understanding the geology of Keoje-do area. Six holes were drilled in 1988-1989, and all rock cores were recovered. Nevertheless, seven kinds of logs were carried out in each borehole. The geologic situations of the drilling sites are accurately evaluated from a comparison between core descriptions and well logging data. Porosities and clay contents of sedimentary rocks can be calculated using the data of density and gamma-ray logs. Fractured zones are easily detected from the change in inside diameter of borehole by caliper log. Sonic, density and gamma-ray logging data clearly indicate alternated and dyke zones; the former can be detceted from an acoustic wave attenuation and a decline of compaction by sonic and density logs, the latter can be detected from the amount of potassium contents of bed rock and dyke by gamma-ray log.

This paper aims to investigate the good reservoir quality and hydrocarbon potentiality of the Khatatba Formation, Qasr Field in the Shoushan Basin of the North Western Desert, Egypt by combining results from log-based petrophysical analysis, petrographic description and images from scanning electron microscope (SEM). Promising reservoir units are initially identified and evaluated through well log analysis of three wells in the field of study. Petrophysical results are then compared with petrographic and SEM images from rock samples to identify features that characterize the reservoir quality. Well log results show that Khatatba Formation in the study area has good sandstone reservoir intervals from depths ranging from 12848 ft to 13900 ft, with good effective porosity records of 13-15% and hydrocarbon saturations of greater than 83%. Petrographic analysis of these sandstone reservoir units indicate high concentrations of vacant pore spaces with good permeability that can be easily occupied by hydrocarbon. The availability of these pore spaces are attributed to pore-enhancing diagenetic features, mainly in the form of good primary porosity and dissolution. SEM images and EDX analysis confirmed the presence of hydrocarbon, therefore indicating a good hydrocarbon-storing potential for the Khatatba Formation sandstones.

For the development of gas hydrate as new future energy resources, the drilling was carried out at the five locations where have high potential as gas hydrate bearing sediments in Ulleung basin, offshore Korea in 2007. Well log data were obtained from all wells and core data were procured from 3 wells, UBGH1-04, UBGH1-09 and UBGH1-10. In this study, user-friendly software, "KMU GH Logs 2010", is developed and this software is based on the estimation methods developed in previous study for gas hydrate bearing sediments and the properties estimated from UBGH1-04, UBGH1-09 and UBGH1-10. Petrophysical properties in un-cored wells, UBGH1-01 and UBGH1-14, are also estimated by using well log data. Porosity is estimated by density log and gas hydrate saturation is calculated by sonic log and resistivity log. Sedimentary facies are estimated by applying the linear discriminant analysis using both well log and sedimentary facies data from core analysis. It is confirmed that DITM facies and MSS facies appeared signs of gas hydrate disassociation are able to be distinguished by the method.
