Abstract
A method is described for predicting permeability including receiving a 3-D earth model including a volume of interest; generating 2-D property images; receiving 2-D fracture images; training a physics-guided neural network using the 2-D fracture images; and predicting permeability using the physics-guided neural network applied to the 2-D property images. The method is executed by a computer system.
