LithoFormer: A Robust Framework for Stratigraphic Inference via Transformers
Accurate geological characterization of subsurface reservoirs from well log data is essential to support projects such as carbon capture and storage (CCS), geothermal development, and extraction of natural resources. Existing automated techniques for geological characterization primarily use sliding-window classification, which limits their ability to understand broader geological contexts, often leading to misaligned formation layers. To overcome these limitations, we introduce LithoFormer, a robust framework for stratigraphic inference using a Seq2Seq transformer model that ingests entire multivariate well logs in a single pass. The framework utilizes a channel-independent PatchTST back...
