| **named industry standards**: API RP-40 (Recommended Practices for Core |
| Analysis), Society of Core Analysts (SCA), SPWLA petrophysical conventions, |
| Archie (1942), Anderson (1986) wettability survey (JPT), Kozeny-Carman, |
| ASTM D934 (XRD), SPE Petroleum Engineering Handbook, SPE Geomechanics |
| Handbook, and Chang et al. (2006) on E-UCS empirical correlation. |
|
|

| |
| ## Schema highlights |
| |
| **`plug_measurements.csv`** — the petrophysical spine, one row per plug. |
| Key columns: `plug_id`, `core_id`, `plug_depth_ft`, `lithology` |
| (6-class: clean_ss, shaly_ss, tight_ss, shale, carbonate, dolomite), |
| `porosity_pct`, `permeability_md`, `grain_density_gcc`, `bulk_density_gcc`. |
|
|
| **Porosity-permeability follows a Kozeny-Carman-style relation per basin:** |
|
|
| > log(k) ≈ log(k_basin_mean) + 6.0·(φ − φ_basin_mean) + ε |
|
|
| with basin priors calibrated to industry-typical values: Permian Wolfcamp |
| (φ̄ ≈ 8.5%, k̄ ≈ 0.08 mD), Marcellus (φ̄ ≈ 6.5%, k̄ ≈ 0.0003 mD), |
| North Sea Sandstone (φ̄ ≈ 22%, k̄ ≈ 350 mD), GoM Deepwater (φ̄ ≈ 26%, k̄ ≈ 800 mD), |
| Canadian Oil Sands (φ̄ ≈ 32%, k̄ ≈ 2500 mD), etc. |
|
|
| **`special_core_analysis.csv`** — Archie's law parameters per plug: |
|
|
| > F = a / φᵐ (formation resistivity factor) |
|
|
| with a/m/n drawn from industry-typical ranges (a ≈ 1.0, m ≈ 1.95, n ≈ 2.0) |
| matching the SPWLA conventions and the original Archie (1942) JPT paper. |
|
|
| **`xrd_xrf_analysis.csv`** — Dirichlet-sampled mineralogy guaranteeing |
| mass balance (quartz + feldspar + clay + carbonate = 100% per row), plus |
| clay sub-fractions (illite/smectite/kaolinite/chlorite), TOC, kerogen |
| type (I/II/II-S/III/IV), and vitrinite reflectance (oil window ~0.6-1.3%, |
| gas window >1.3%). |
|
|
| **`geomechanical_tests.csv`** — porosity-modulated elastic properties: |
| |
| > E_static ≈ 8e6 · (1 − 2.5·φ) + ε (psi) |
| > UCS ≈ E_static / 250 + ε (psi) |
| |
| matching the Chang et al. (2006) empirical correlation for sedimentary |
| rocks. |
| |

| |
| ## Suggested use cases |
| |
| 1. **Porosity-permeability regression** — train ML estimators of permeability |
| from porosity + lithology + grain density using the 37,398-plug |
| spine. |
| 2. **Reservoir quality classification** — multi-class classifier on |
| `reservoir_quality_grade` (A/B/C/D) from petrophysical features. |
| 3. **Pay zone identification** — binary classification on `pay_zone_flag` |
| from RCA + lithology + mineralogy features. |
| 4. **SCAL surrogate models** — predict Archie m/n, wettability index, and |
| relperm endpoints from petrophysical and mineralogical inputs (multi- |
| output regression). |
| 5. **Hydrocarbon type prediction** — 7-class classifier on `hydrocarbon_type` |
| from basin, depth, and rock properties. |
| 6. **Multi-table relational ML** — entity-resolution and graph-based |
| learning across the 11 joinable tables via `core_id` / `plug_id`. |
| 7. **Mineralogy → petrophysics ML** — predict porosity and permeability |
| from XRD/XRF mineralogy (quartz/clay/carbonate/feldspar fractions). |
| 8. **Geomechanical surrogates** — predict Young's modulus, UCS, and |
| brittleness from porosity + lithology for unconventional completion |
| design. |

| ## Loading |
|
|
| ```python |
| from datasets import load_dataset |
| ds = load_dataset("xpertsystems/oil006-sample", data_files="plug_measurements.csv") |
| print(ds["train"][0]) |
| ``` |
|
|
| Or with pandas: |
|
|
| ```python |
| import pandas as pd |
| cores = pd.read_csv("hf://datasets/xpertsystems/oil006-sample/cores_master.csv") |
| plugs = pd.read_csv("hf://datasets/xpertsystems/oil006-sample/plug_measurements.csv") |
| rca = pd.read_csv("hf://datasets/xpertsystems/oil006-sample/routine_core_analysis.csv") |
| scal = pd.read_csv("hf://datasets/xpertsystems/oil006-sample/special_core_analysis.csv") |
| joined = plugs.merge(rca, on="plug_id").merge(cores, on="core_id") |
| ``` |
|

|
|
| ## Reproducibility |
|
|
| All generation is deterministic via the integer `seed` parameter. The ID |
| conventions (`CORE_{i:06d}`, `PLUG_{i:08d}`, `RCA_{i:08d}`, etc.) |
| guarantee schema-stable joins across runs. |
|
|
| A seed sweep across `[42, 7, 123, 2024, 99, 1]` confirms Grade A+ on every |
| seed in this sample. |

|
| ## Honest disclosure of sample-scale limitations |
|
|
| This is a **sample** product calibrated for ML prototyping and core-analysis |
| research, not for live drilling or completion decisions. A few notes: |
|
|
| 1. **Permeability is heavy-tailed.** The lognormal Kozeny-Carman model |
| produces realistic but right-skewed permeability distributions |
| (sample p90 ≈ 1100 mD, median ≈ 0.3 mD). Use log-transformed permeability |
| for statistical work and `np.log10(permeability_md + 1e-5)` for |
| correlation analyses to match the φ-k coefficient reported in the |
| scorecard. |
|
|
| 2. **Basin / lithology coverage at sample scale** — at 500 cores, each |
| basin has 29-79 cores. All 6 lithologies are present but tight_ss and |
| dolomite are under-represented (~10% and ~6% of plugs respectively). |
| Full product (25,000 cores) gives 2,000-4,000 cores per basin and |
| converges all lithology distributions. |
| |
| 3. **2.8% controlled anomaly injection** is present in `plug_measurements` |
| (`anomaly_flag` column) and `routine_core_analysis` (`anomaly_flag` column). |
| This simulates stress-relief microfractures inflating permeability |
| (plug level, 2-10× multipliers) and measurement repeatability artifacts |
| (RCA helium porosity, ±1.5% noise). Use these flags as QC training |
| targets or filter them out for clean regression baselines. |
|
|
| 4. **Wettability index** is sampled with a global mean of -0.10 (mixed-to- |
| slightly-oil-wet), not stratified by basin wettability prior. The |
| v1.1 generator will introduce basin-stratified wettability sampling |
| for tighter calibration. |
