This note presents an approach for estimating the spatial distribution of static properties in reservoir modeling using a nearest-neighbor neural network. The method leverages the strengths of neural networks in approximating complex, non-linear functions, particularly for tasks involving spatial interpolation. It incorporates a nearest-neighbor algorithm to capture local spatial relationships between data points and introduces randomization to quantify the uncertainty inherent in the interpolation process. This approach addresses the limitations of traditional geostatistical methods, such as Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) and Kriging, which often fail to model the complex non-linear dependencies in reservoir data.

This paper uses a special type of artificial intelligence called a neural network to help predict where certain properties are located underground. These properties are important for finding oil and gas. The researchers used this AI to improve how we can use old data to make new predictions about where these properties might be. They also made sure that the AI could show us how sure it was of its predictions, which is important for making good decisions.
