Automated Depth Shifting of Core Data: A Python-Based Approach

Year: 2025
Type: article
Abstract: In the field of petroleum exploration and reservoir analysis, the precise correlation between core data and log data is paramount. However, the presence of broken or incomplete core data due to core crumbling, stretch of logging tools cables, and information loss on cored depths poses a significant challenge, as it can hinder the accuracy of interpretations derived from log data also Manually shifting is both demanding and time-consuming, and its precision falls short when compared to the efficiency and accuracy of an automated shifting process. This paper introduces a novel Python-based solution for automatic depth shifting of core data to log data, aimed at enhancing the alignment and integration of these two essential datasets. By adopting the issue of incomplete core recovery, this approach offers a practical and efficient method to optimize data consistency and improve the quality of geological interpretations.
