Zusammenfassung: | Carbonate reservoirs are of great importance due to having many fractures and the effectiveness of these fractures in oil production. The most effective tools for studying fractures are image logs that capture high resolution images from the well. An example of these images is the FMI tool, which provide important information on the orientation, depth, and type of fracture. Today, the detection of fractures on these logs is done manually, which in the absence of sufficient experience, will encounter errors. The purpose of this study is to identify the reservoir fractures and the dips of the fractures using Canny edge detection algorithm and Hough transform algorithm and image processing operators, so that in the first stage, fractures are identified in
Geolog Software
and in the second stage, using
MATLAB Software
, fractures and their dip are interpreted. |
