The application of improved neural network in hydrocarbon reservoir prediction

This paper use BP neural network techniques to realize hydrocarbon reservoir predication easier and faster in tarim basin in oil wells. A grey – cascade neural network model is proposed and it is faster convergence speed and low error rate. The new method overcomes the shortcomings of traditional BP neural network convergence slow, easy to achieve extreme minimum value. This study had 220 sets of measured logging data to the sample data training mode. By changing the neuron number and types of the transfer function of hidden layers, the best work prediction model is analyzed. The conclusion is the model which can produce good prediction results in general, and can be used for hydrocarbon reservoir prediction.
