Automatic facies classification for borehole images from Brazil Pre-salt region

What is it about?

Acoustic borehole images present important information about lithofacies. However, it is very time-consuming and laborious to classify them manually. Thus, we propose a advanced Machine Learning model trained with a smart strategy to classify the image logs automatically. The ML model can provide highly accurate facies prediction for image logs in negligible time, greatly contributing to a comprehensive geological understanding.
