Abstract
Methods and systems for determining a rock facies map are disclosed. The method includes obtaining a three-dimensional (3D) seismic image and a plurality of well logs, and identifying a horizon and determining a set of bandlimited 3D seismic images. The method further includes determining a set of mono-frequency maps by applying spectral decomposition to the 3D seismic image and determining a seismic attribute map based on the set of mono-frequency maps and a machine learning network. The method still further includes identifying a set of rock facies based, at least in part, on the plurality of well logs, determining a transformation function that maps a subset of rock facies to values of the seismic attribute map, and determining the rock facies map based on the seismic attribute map and the transformation function.
