Hi, I am looking for references describing applications of neural networks to well logging in the oil & gas industry. I have absolutely no clue as to where to start looking. I would therefore appreciate any help I can get. Thank you Shiv

Its an annual conference, this year to be in Toronto, last year in Alburquerque, 89-Glasgow,88-New York, 87-Dallas. They often have seismic related papers and I'm sure that I have seen some relating to exactly the area you require. Graham Freeland cnbr17@vaxa.strathclyde.ac.uk

I don't have any direct references, but I know that Shell Research is working on this problem with neural networks. Try to find something out there (in particular, Shell Research in Rijswijk, The Netherlands has people working on the problem).

I know the group and people Patrick is referring to. They work on quality controll of oil wells using backprop networks in a rather nice fashion.

Jerry Mendel (the Chair of the EE systems Dept @USC) has recently published an article on using Hopfield nets for Maximium Likelihood Deconvolution in the processing of seismic reflectivity data. You might wish to speak with him or one of his students about it.
