The invention relates to the technical field of
petroleum exploration and development, in particular to a technology for
thin layer lithology reservoir recognition and horizontal
well drilling tracking. The technology comprises the steps of applying newly collected three-dimensional seismic data, carrying out comprehensive geological research by combination of
well logging of a newly drilled well and production data, studying oil reservoir types and distribution laws, confirming reservoir-controlling factors, and finely depicting a geologic body; utilizing the high-yielding well reflection characteristics to track a favorable sand body, utilizing the fact that a high-yielding well has the reflection characteristics of
ranging from points to lines, faces, and bodies on a seismic section, namely the characteristic that sand body updip pinch-out points and horizontal
change points form sand body pinch-out lines is obvious, and determining a sand body distribution range in an own style. The
thin layer lithology sand body of smaller than 5m can be effectively depicted, the oil reservoir thickness
lower limit deployed by a horizontal well is reduced from 5m to 1.6m, and
thin layer marginal oil reservoir reserves are effectively applied. The shortcoming that the thin layer marginal oil reservoir reserves cannot be developed in the prior art is overcome.
