Bridging Petrophysics and Machine Learning

Machine learning is reshaping log interpretation workflows, but the fundamentals of petrophysics are what keep the models honest.

Placeholder article body. As machine learning models increasingly assist with lithology and porosity prediction from well logs, petrophysicists are finding that strong fundamentals are what separate a trustworthy model from a black box. This piece looks at how training curricula are blending classical petrophysics with modern data science. (Placeholder content to be replaced with final copy.)
