Automated well log mnemonics parser

alaska: The las file aliaser

alaska is a Python package that reads mnemonics from LAS files and outputs an aliased dictionary of mnemonics and its aliases, as well as a list of mnemonics that cannot be found. It uses three different methods to find aliases to mnemonics: locates exact matches of a mnemonic in an alias dictionary, identifies keywords in mnemonics' description then returns alias from the keyword extractor, and predicts alias using all attributes of the curves.

Sample Usage

from alaska import Alias
from welly import Project
import lasio

path = "testcase.las"
a = Alias()
parsed, not_found = a.parse(path)

In this case, parsed is the aliased dictionary that contains mnemonics and its aliases, and not_found is the list of mnemonics that the aliaser did not find. Users can manually alias mnemonics in the not_found list and add them to the dictionary of aliased mnemonics

Parameters of the Alias class can be changed, and the defaults are the following

a = Alias(dictionary=True, keyword_extractor=True, model=True, prob_cutoff=.5)

Users can choose which parser to use/not to use by setting the parsers to True/False. The prob_cutoff is the confidence the user wants the predictions made by model parser to have.

Then, the aliased mnemonics can be inputted into welly as demonstrated below.

from welly import Project
p = Project.from_las(path)
data = p.df(keys=list(parsed.keys()), alias=parsed)
print(data)
