Title: Unsupervised Electrofacies Classification and Porosity Characterization in the Offshore Keta Basin Using Wireline Logs

Abstract:
arXiv:2604.27126v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This study presents an unsupervised machine learning workflow for electrofacies analysis in the offshore Keta Basin, Ghana, where core data are scarce. Six standard wireline logs from Well~C were analysed over a depth interval comprising approximately $11{,}195$ samples. K-means clustering was applied in multivariate log space, with the clustering structure evaluated using inertia and silhouette diagnostics. Four clusters were identified, supported
