Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to an oil and gas field, shale gas seismic exploration and reservoir parameter prediction method, in particular to a multi-wave AVO reservoir elastic parameter inversion method based on accurate Zoeppritz equation. Background technique [0002] With limited logging data, it is very difficult to continuously describe the reservoir in space. The accuracy of the 3D spatial model of the reservoir based on well data interpolation, extrapolation or simulation depends on the number and spatial distribution of wells around the reservoir. When the number of wells around the reservoir is limited, the lateral resolution of the reservoir description based on logging is low, and it is difficult to achieve effective characterization of the interwell reservoir. Seismic data has good spatial continuity and plays a very important role in reservoir characterization. High-precision inversion methods make the inversion results of great value and can imp...

Problems solved by technology

Due to the complexity of the precise Zoeppritz equation, the current AVO inversion is mainly based on the approximate formula of the Zoeppritz equation to extract the elastic parameters by using the information of the amplitude change with the offset on the prestack gather. The elastic parameter is directly inverted, and there are too many assumptions, especially when the incident angle (or offset) is large, there is a large calculation error, and the calculation accuracy cannot meet the fine characterization requirements of the actual reservoir

Although the full waveform inversion can use the information of the full wave field to predict the model parameters, it has a huge amount of calculation, and cannot meet the requirements of the fine characterization of the actual reservoir in terms of inversion scale and calculation efficiency, especially for the actual three-dimensional large offset multi-wave and multi-component seismic data

[0003] In summary, the current research on reservoir elastic parameter inversion methods based on pre-stack seismic data has the following problems: AVO inversion based on the approximate formula of the Zoeppritz equation cannot extract large offset information, and its adaptability is poor; In particular, the most common structure of shale gas reservoirs is the thin interbedded structure of shale-sandstone, with large differences in longitudinal elastic parameters, which greatly reduces the solution accuracy of the Zoeppritz approximate formula, and the AVO inversion method based on the approximate expression of the Zoeppritz equation is no longer Applicable to this type of reservoir; the current conventional AVO inversion methods do not directly invert the elastic parameters such as P-wave velocity, shear-wave velocity, and density, but obtain them indirectly, which reduces the accuracy of the inversion; the traditional pre-stack The AVO inversion method generally only considers PP wave data. PP wave data mainly contains P-wave velocity information, but is not sensitive to model velocity and density. Using PP seismic AVO data alone to invert S-wave velocity information and density has great uncertainty; How to effectively obtain the elastic parameter model information of the underground medium as prior information to reduce the uncertainty of the inversion and improve the accuracy of the inversion requires further research

The algorithm does not directly invert elastic parameters such as P-wave velocity, S-wave velocity, and density, but obtains them indirectly, which reduces the accuracy of the inversion; only PP wave data is considered, and PP-wave data mainly contains P-wave velocity information. But not sensitive to model speed and density
