Natural gas hydrates, with their efficient and clean energy characteristics, are deemed a significant pillar within the future energy sector, and their resource quantification and development have a profound impact on the transformation of global energy structure. However, how to accurately identify gas hydrate reservoirs (GHRs) is currently a hot research topic. This study explores the logging identification method of marine GHRs based on machine learning (ML) according to the logging data of the International Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expedition 311. This article selects six ML methods, including Gaussian process classification (GPC), support vector machine (SVM), multilayer perceptron (MLP), random forest (RF), extreme gradient boosting (XGBoost), and logistic regression (LR). The internal relationship between logging data and hydrate reservoir is analyzed through six ML algorithms. The results show that the constructed ML model performs well in gas hydrate reservoir identification. Among them, RF has the highest accuracy, precision, recall, and harmonic mean of precision and recall (F1 score), all of which are above 0.90. With an area under curve (AUC) of nearly 1 for RF, it is confirmed that ML technology is effective in this area. Research has shown that ML provides an alternative method for quickly and efficiently identifying GHRs based on well logging data and also offers a scientific foundation and technical backup for the future prospecting and mining of natural gas hydrates.
