GENERATING SYNTHETIC GEOLOGICAL FORMATION IMAGES BASED ON ROCK FRAGMENT IMAGES

In an example method, one or more processors receive a plurality of rock fragment images. Each of the rock fragment images represents respective rock fragments obtained from a subsurface formation during well bore drilling. The one or more processors select one or more portions of the rock fragment...

More Information
Summary:In an example method, one or more processors receive a plurality of rock fragment images. Each of the rock fragment images represents respective rock fragments obtained from a subsurface formation during well bore drilling. The one or more processors select one or more portions of the rock fragment images, and generate a geological formation image based on the one or more selected portions of the rock fragment images. The geological formation image is indicative of one or more geological characteristics of the subsurface formation along the well bore.
