Abstract
Permeability prediction systems and methods using quadratic discriminant analysis are presented. At least one disclosed method embodiment includes: acquiring formation property measurements at a plurality of positions along at least one borehole in a study area; identifying clusters in a plurality of points representing the formation property measurements at the plurality of postions; and determining a system permeability value for each cluster. Quadratic Discriminant Analysis ('QDA') is used to associate one the clusters with each position along the one or more boreholes, thereby determining a system permeability prediction for each position. The total system permeability can then be predicted by aggregating the system permeability predictions.
