Problems solved by technology

However, neither the travel time difference of the split shear wave nor the ratio of the major and minor axes of the longitudinal wave ellipse can only give the relative size of the fracture density (that is, the degree of development) in the formation, which cannot meet the quantitative evaluation of the formation permeability and the oil and gas reserves of fractured reservoirs. computing requirements

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of seismic exploration, in particular to a method and system for inversion of fracture density in seismic strata. Background technique [0002] Fissures and fractures are oil and gas storage spaces and percolation channels, as well as places where water and coalbed methane are enriched, stored, and migrated. Ascertaining the distribution and development of underground fractures is very important for oil and gas prediction, increasing oil and gas productivity, preventing gas explosions, roof / floor water inrush, and coalbed methane development. [0003] The parameters describing the distribution and development degree of fissures mainly include the direction of fissures and the density of fissures. At present, seismic methods for crack detection mainly include shear wave splitting method, polarization map method, longitudinal wave azimuth AVOA method and azimuth travel time method, etc. Theoretically, shear waves are ...
