Shale gas resource evaluation includes resource calculation

favorable distribution area and economic effectiveness based on geological and exploration process analysis. Its core is evaluation method selection

parameter processing and result analysis in line with geological process evolution characteristics and data mastery degree. The intelligent evaluation of shale gas resources can overcome the limitations of real resource evaluation

and can realize the whole process simulation and evaluation from qualitative to quantitative. It has obvious characteristics of development stages. The main feature of resource evaluation at this stage is to use modern means such as machine learning and inference engine. Method selection

parameter quality and evaluation effect are the keys to shale gas resource evaluation. Knowledge base establishment based on geological characteristics and exploration level

data collection

parameter analysis

data mining

geological reasoning

method selection

intelligent calculation

and reliability of results analysis

spatial expression of results and continuous execution throughout the process are the basic ideas and methods for intelligent evaluation of shale gas resources. Intelligent evaluation with powerful functions and continuous implementation throughout the whole process is the basic direction of the development of shale gas resource evaluation

which requires continuous accumulation and practice on the basis of existing technologies to promote the development of shale gas resource evaluation methods and technologies in a wider range.
