Welcome

Hi — I’m Andy.

I am a petrophysicist who enjoys working with Python and AI tools. Over the past few years I’ve shared notebooks, articles, examples, and ideas online.

I have decided to bring most of that content into a single place rather than being scattered across multiple platforms. It’s also an attempt to gather the patterns, habits, and ways of thinking that have proven useful to me when working with subsurface data in the real world.

If you’ve found any of my previous writing or examples helpful, this is where those ideas get a bit more space to breathe and can be expanded.

This is a living document.

Content and structure will evolve as ideas are refined, expanded, or reworked.
Early chapters prioritise clarity and foundations over completeness.
