This technical note outlines a workflow using the IGI Machine Learning (ML) tools to reproduce the oil-family framework reported by Holger Justwan, Birger Dahl and Gary Isaksen in their 2006 study of oils and condensates from the Norwegian South Viking Graben.
This work was undertaken with Jesper Kresten Nielsen from OKEA as part of a mentoring week, in which we explored several elements of the IGI ML tools associated with the p:IGI+ software while building an oil family and PVT interpretation in two specific regions of interest to the company (not discussed here). 
The technical note covers the key steps in building an oil family classifier, illustrating how to use the IGI ML tools effectively. While the focus is on learning the Justwan et al. (2006) labels in the South Viking Graben region, the concepts can be applied to any oils and any region. Read more …
