Natural gas, as a sustainable and cleaner energy source, still holds crucial position in the transition stage. In shale gas exploration, total organic carbon (TOC) content plays role, with log data proving beneficial predicting reservoirs. However, complex coal-bearing layers like marine–continental transitional Shanxi Formation, traditional prediction methods exhibit significant errors. Therefore, this study proposes an advanced, cost- time-saving deep learning approach to predict TOC shale. Five well records from area were used evaluate five machine models: K-Nearest Neighbors (KNNs), Random Forest (RF), Gradient Boosting Decision Tree (GBDT), Extreme (XGB), Deep Neural Network (DNN). The predictive results compared conventional for accurate predictions. Through K-fold cross-validation, ML models showed superior accuracy over models, DNN model displaying lowest root mean square error (RMSE) absolute (MAE). To enhance accuracy, δR was integrated new parameter into models. Comparative analysis revealed that improved DNN-R reduced MAE RMSE by 57.1% 70.6%, respectively, on training set, 59.5% 72.5%, test original model. Williams plot permutation importance confirmed reliability effectiveness of enhanced indicate potential technology valuable tool parameters, especially reservoirs lacking sufficient core samples relying solely basic well-logging data, signifying its effective assessment development.

Abstract The oil and gas industry relies on accurately predicting profitable clusters in subsurface formations for geophysical reservoir analysis. It is challenging to predict payable complicated geological settings like the Lower Indus Basin, Pakistan. In complex, high-dimensional heterogeneous settings, traditional statistical methods seldom provide correct results. Therefore, this paper introduces a robust unsupervised AI strategy designed identify classify zones using self-organizing maps (SOM) K-means clustering techniques. Results of SOM provided potentials six depositional facies types (MBSD, DCSD, MBSMD, SSiCL, SMDFM, MBSh) based cluster distributions. MBSD DCSD exhibited high similarity achieved maximum effective porosity (PHIE) value ≥ 15%, indicating good rock typing (RRT) features. density-based spatial applications with noise (DBSCAN) showed minimum outliers through meta attributes confirmed reliability generated Shapley Additive Explanations (SHAP) model identified PHIE as most significant parameter was beneficial identifying non-payable zones. Additionally, highlights importance managing distribution across various formations, going beyond simple characterization.

Reservoir characterization is a vital task within the oil and gas industry, with identification of lithofacies in subsurface formations being fundamental aspect this process. However, complex geological environments high dimensions, such as Lower Indus Basin Pakistan, poses notable challenge, especially when dealing limited data. To address issue, we propose four common data-driven machine learning approaches: multi-resolution graph-based clustering (MRGC), artificial neural networks (ANN), K-nearest neighbors (KNN), self-organizing map (SOM). We utilized these proposed approaches to assess their performance scenarios varying core sample availability, specifically evaluating effectiveness identifying Goru formation middle Basin. The study reveals that number samples, MRGC preferred choice, while KNN or more suitable for larger datasets. results demonstrate superior specified environment, SOM following closely behind, ANN exhibiting comparatively lower efficacy. accurate from selected model complemented by application truncated Gaussian simulation method facies modeling.
