I built a summarizer for drilling reports. Anytime you drill boreholes, whether it's on a drilling platform in the ocean or the middle of the desert or wherever, there's a geologist watching what comes out and writing notes about it. They likely do this multiple times both in the field and a laboratory setting. These notes are paired with logging software which also asks the geologist more quantitative questions sometimes (e.g., on a scale 1 to 5 how many fractures are there). Typically these are written for at least every meter of extracted core/rock/etc. typically you are drilling hundreds or thousands of meters, or more. So you end up with a highly unstructured data set that occasionally someone glances through to find tidbits. Using chatgpt we converted this data into keywords that could then be used to look at depth dependencies of various geological or petrological features of the region.
