| Abstract | Rock physics diagnostics (RPD) established based upon the well data are used to deterministically predict elastic properties of porous rocks from measured petrophysical rock parameters. With the recent advances in statistical methods, another approach for predicting elastic properties from well data is through the use of machine learning (ML). Several studies have reported the comparison of rock physics and ML methods for the prediction of elastic properties. However, the scale independence (applicability of results at both well log and seismic scale) of the ML approach was never investigated. This study aims at comparing the results from rock physics and ML methods for predicting elastic properties, namely the bulk density (ρb), P-wave velocity (Vp), S-wave velocity (Vs), and Poisson’s ratio (PR) in a well from the Gulf of Mexico (GOM). In particular, well logs, such as porosity, gamma ray, and resistivity curves were used as ML inputs to simulate the petrophysical inputs employed in rock physics models. The well-log data were upscaled, using Backus averaging, to examine the scale independence and prediction accuracy of physics-driven and data-driven approaches at the seismic scale. The evaluation of predicted elastic properties was based on the average absolute percentage error (AAPE) between measured and predicted outputs. Results show that ML models provide better prediction accuracy at the well log and seismic scales compared with the RPD. On average, RPD has an AAPE of 4% for Vp prediction and 10% for Vs and PR prediction while the AAPE for ML does not exceed 3% for all elastic properties. Both RPD and ML provide consistent results at both well log and seismic scale, suggesting the scale independency of both approaches. Nevertheless, the ML models failed to identify an issue in one gas-saturated interval showing non-realistic Vs and PR values. Such an issue, however, could be identified and corrected using the RPD, which shows the importance of domain knowledge to check data quality and validate results. This study suggests the importance of incorporating rock physics modeling even when using machine learning methods in modeling elastic properties to check the quality of the training data and ensure reasonable predictions. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
