Lithofacies Module
Purpose
The Lithofacies module allows users to evaluate electrofacies clusters by both a K-means methodology and deterministically.
Primary Outputs
The following curves are the primary interpretations made in this module.
| Curve Name | Description |
|---|---|
| LITHOFACIES | Lithofacies via K-means clustering |
| DET_LITHOFACIES | Deterministic lithofacies categories |
Discussion
In many cases it is useful to recognize when intervals have substantially similar log responses. This can help when identifying pay zones, determining where parameter choices may need to change, and understanding overall variations.
To help aid in the pattern recognition geologists and petrophysicists look to undertake Danomics provides two lithofacies evaluations.
- A k-means based lithofacies that can be performed using either a single well or multi-well model
- A deterministic lithofacies model that utilizes the log responses to broadly categorize the rock type.
These can either be used jointly or separately in your analysis. When using the K-means based model there are options to use either just the data from the key well to do the analysis or to use a multi-well model. For learning about the multi-well models, see these videos:
Danomics also has pre-trained multi-well models that can be found here:

NMR Interpretation Module
Purpose The NMR interpretation module allows users to calculate porosity, bound and free fluids from the measure T1 and T2 distributions from NMR tools. Primary Outputs Discussion In oil and gas well logging, the $T_2$ distribution is used as a high-resolution "map" of the formation's pore system. While a standard porosity tool tells you how much fluid is there, NMR tells you where that fluid is trapped and whether it will flow.
General Concepts in Flows
Because Flows will be a new concept to many of you it is important to understand the general concepts that flows are built upon. These concepts are: Many tasks are repetitive These tasks should be done consistently These tasks can often be split into small pieces. What Are Flows? Flows are batch processing system that combine Flow tools to perform operations consistently across a dataset, and are especially useful for repetitive tasks like gridding data.
