Problems solved by technology

Therefore, in identifying the pressure of gas-bearing formations such as shale gas, only using the P-wave velocity cannot distinguish whether the low-velocity layer is a gas-bearing layer or an overpressure zone.

Abstract

The invention discloses an abnormal formation pressure calculation method. The method includes: acquiring first effective stress through the relation between Young modulus and longitudinal and transverse wave velocity; acquiring second effective stress through the relation between bulk modulus and the longitudinal and transverse velocity; subjecting the first effective stress and the second effective stress to weighted average to acquire a final effective stress result; according to the final effective stress result, determining abnormal formation pressure sections by the aid of the effective stress theory. With the method, precision in predicting formation pressure is improved, influence of containing gas in the formation on formation velocity is eliminated, a high-precision model is established between the formation velocity and the effective stress, and an elastic modulus weighing method is developed to have the formation pressure predicated.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of geophysics, in particular to a method for calculating abnormal formation pressure using geophysical technology to calculate formation pressure. Background technique [0002] Since Pennebaker published an article discussing the use of seismic data to predict abnormal pressure in 1968, the accuracy of pressure prediction using geophysical techniques has gradually improved. But at present, only the longitudinal wave velocity is used to detect the overpressure zone, and sometimes errors may occur. Because the reduction in P-wave velocity is not unique to the overpressure zone, the P-wave velocity in the gas-bearing layer will also be very low. Therefore, in identifying the pressure of gas-bearing formations such as shale gas, only using the P-wave velocity cannot distinguish whether the low-velocity layer is a gas-bearing layer or an overpressure zone. [0003] Therefore, a new method for calculating abnorm...
