Geological feature search engine

A computer system, comprising:

• one or more processors;
• and
• a memory system comprising one or more non-transitory computer-readable media storing instructions thereon that, when executed, cause the computer system to perform operations, the operations comprising:
• identifying one or more geological features included in each of a plurality of seismic data images by executing a machine learning process;
• storing, in a database, information identifying the one or more geological features included in each of the plurality of seismic data images;
• receiving a geological feature search query identifying one or more geological features of interest and one or more constraints associated with the one or more geological features of interest, wherein the one or more constraints include geological attributes, and wherein the geological attributes comprise a depth below a mudline;
• executing, based on receiving the geological feature search query, a search of the database storing the information identifying the one or more geological features included in each of the plurality of seismic data images, wherein executing the search comprises searching the seismic data images and images from a volume model or a basin model;
• determining rock types present in the seismic data images, and selecting and implementing at least one of a plurality of noise removal techniques for the seismic data images based upon the determined rock types;
• determining, based on executing the search, search results, wherein the search results identify one more of the plurality of seismic data images having the one or more geological features of interest identified in the geological feature search query;
• and
• outputting information regarding the search results to facilitate performing at least one of exploration of at least one geographical area having the features of interest and avoidance of at least one geographical area comprising features representing hazardous areas.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions thereon that, when executed, cause a computer system to perform operations, the operations comprising:

• receiving a plurality of training images that are each labeled with information identifying geological features present in each of the plurality of training images;
• identifying one or more geological features included in each of a plurality of operational seismic data images by executing a machine learning process using the plurality of training images;
• storing, in a database, information identifying the one or more geological features included in each of the plurality of operational seismic data images;
• receiving a geological feature search query identifying one or more geological features of interest and one or more constraints associated with the one or more geological features of interest, wherein the one or more constraints include geological attributes, and wherein the geological attributes comprise a depth below a mudline;
• executing, based on receiving the geological feature search query, a search of the database storing the information identifying the one or more geological features included in each of the plurality of operational seismic data images, wherein executing the search comprises searching the operational seismic data images and images from a volume model or a basin model;
• determining rock types present in the operational seismic data images, and selecting and implementing at least one of a plurality of noise removal techniques for the operational seismic data images based upon the determined rock types;
• determining, based on executing the search, search results, wherein the search results identify one more of the plurality of operational seismic data images having the one or more geological features of interest identified in the geological feature search query;
• and
• outputting information regarding the search results to facilitate performing at least one of exploration of at least one geographical area having the features of interest and avoidance of at least one geographical area comprising features representing hazardous areas.
