Abstract:
The curves on well-logging parameter graph are very
important to reservoir description. But how to keep the
parameter graphs permanently and use the data implied
in those curves efficiently are still open problems in
petroleum industry. In this paper, we contribute an
approach to digitizing well log curves and storing the
digitized information into Oracle database or data file
server with multi-agent perspective. We employed Gaia
methodology and open agent architecture to analyze and
design the system. According to the characteristics of the
well-logging parameter graphs, we implement the SCTR
(Scanning, Compressing, Tracing, and Rectifying)
algorithms with four agents to digitize well log curves.
Two data management agents are developed for
operating database and data files in uniform agent
communication language. The experimental results show
that this approach is effective.
