Problems solved by technology

For the migration method of multi-component seismic data based on the acoustic wave equation, this implementation ignores the vector characteristics of the multi-component data, resulting in the neglect of the property information of the subsurface medium, which will inevitably lead to imaging errors
In addition, the separation of P- and S-waves for multi-component seismic data is often not perfect, and this incomplete separation will inevitably lead to crosstalk artifacts in the migration section
For the migration method of multi-component seismic data based on the elastic wave equation, problems such as crosstalk between longitudinal and transverse waves and polarity reversal of shear waves affect the migration accuracy in different degrees and aspects
In addition, there is an error in the wave field continuation operator used in reverse time migration. It is not the exact inverse of the wave field forward continuation operator, but uses the adjoint operator to replace
In addition, the actual seismic data is incomplete, the acquisition aperture is limited, and there are aliases and noises in the data. Combining these factors, the reverse time migration section has acquisition footprints, low resolution, uneven amplitude, and serious artifacts. And other issues
Therefore, the conventional elastic wave reverse time migration method cannot well realize high-precision, high-resolution, signal-to-noise ratio, and amplitude-preserving imaging of multi-component seismic data.

Abstract

The invention discloses a multi-component seismic data least squares reverse time migration imaging method and system. The method conducts modification on the basis of the elastic wave reverse time migration method, directly with the multi-component data as input, under the framework of inversion, employs different wave-field propagators and new imaging conditions at different steps of migration so as to achieve multi-component seismic data migration imaging based on inversion. According to the invention, the thought of inversion is introduced to elastic wave reverse time migration, compared with regular elastic wave reverse time migration, a prestack depth migration profile having high precision, high resolution, high signal to noise ratio, and amplitude preservation can be acquired. The method can effectively overcome lineups destructive interference caused by transverse wave polarity-reversal, and can effectively eliminate migration illusion caused by crosstalk among longitudinal and transverse waves while longitudinal and transverse wave vector characteristics, amplitude and phase characteristics are maintained in entirety. The method increases imaging precision, is applicable to multi-component seismic data migration of all kinds of complex medium models, has clear imaging profiles, and is easy for later-stage geology interpretation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of geophysical exploration and relates to pre-stack migration imaging processing of multi-component seismic data, in particular to a multi-component seismic data least-squares reverse-time migration imaging method and system. Background technique [0002] In the past few decades, most of the oil and gas exploration has been dominated by the compressional wave exploration method, which is based on the assumption of the acoustic medium, and it is believed that only the compressional wave exists in the subterranean medium. However, with the in-depth development of oil and gas exploration, the exploration targets are becoming more and more complex. This single-component seismic data processing method based on the acoustic wave equation is more and more insufficient, especially for complex structure imaging. Because the wave field propagating in the underground medium not only has longitudinal waves, but also has wave type...
