Abstract

The strong heterogeneity of clastic reservoirs and the phenomenon of similar log responses for different lithologies (i.e., “same spectrum, different rocks”) significantly weaken feature separability. Furthermore, distribution shifts between different wells cause traditional models to suffer from severe generalization bottlenecks in cross-well applications. To address this critical challenge, this paper proposes a dual-driven framework comprising “Multivariate Feature Enhancement + Dynamic Ensemble”. At the feature level, physics-informed enhancement and multi-scale statistics are introduced to construct a Multivariate high-dimensional feature system, thereby strengthening the representation of geological patterns. At the model level, a sample-aware Dynamic Confidence-Weighted Ensemble (DCWE) strategy is designed to achieve sample-wise adaptive decision-making based on prediction uncertainty, fundamentally breaking through the limitations of fixed weights in static ensembles. This method combines the complementary advantages of Gradient Boosting Decision Trees (GBDT) and deep sequence networks, enabling the simultaneous capture of local textural variations and continuous trends across depths. Based on rigorous Leave-One-Group-Out (LOGO) cross-validation, the proposed framework achieves a maximum accuracy of 84.58%. It significantly reduces the misclassification rate in lithology transition zones and for minority class samples, while maintaining the geological continuity of prediction results. These results verify the significant advantages of the proposed method in cross-well generalization scenarios.
