METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR MULTI-DIMENSIONAL DATA ANALYSIS TO IDENTIFY ROCK HETEROGENEITY'

摘要

A method, apparatus and computer usable program code for identifying regions in the ground at a well site (200). Continuous data (902) is received from the well site (200); reducing redundancies in the continuous data (902) received from the well site (200) to form processed data. Cluster analysis is performed (2308) using the processed data to form a set of cluster units, wherein the set of cluster units (1402) include different types of cluster units that identify differences between regions in the ground at the well site (200). Properties are identified for each type of cluster unit in the set of cluster units (1400) to form a model for the well site (200).
