Abstract

A system can determine a heterogeneity and a score for a reservoir for optimizing a drilling location. The system can receive a wireline log associated with a well that is positioned in a subterranean formation that includes a reservoir. The system can determine, using the wireline log, at least one statistical parameter for an interval of the well. The system can determine, using the at least one statistical parameter, a vertical heterogeneity of the reservoir. The system can determine, using the vertical heterogeneity, a score associated with the reservoir. The score can indicate an extraction difficulty and a carbon intensity of the reservoir. The system can output the score for optimizing a drilling location.
