Abstract
An apparatus, system, and set of methods are provided for building templates that can be used in the exploration and production oil and gas deposits. A personal computer is used to perform calculations on known data to generate hyperdimensional templates that are stored within a pattern database. The hyperdimensional templates are generated in a layered series of cutting, attributing, and statisizing phases using data known to represent existing oil and gas reservoirs. The hyperdimensional templates are stored in a pattern database. Methods are provided for identifying misclassifications and otherwise determine the quality of the templates in the pattern database.
