Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the field of oil and gas exploration and development, and specifically relates to a thin reservoir prediction method, device, equipment and medium with multi-attribute fusion. Background Art

[0002] With the deepening of seismic exploration and the development of geophysical exploration technology, especially the increasing complexity and difficulty of exploration targets, oil and gas exploration has developed from the original search for structural oil and gas reservoirs to lithologic and structural-lithologic composite oil and gas reservoirs. Taking the Maokou Formation in the Sichuan Basin as an example, the reservoir is thin, laterally discontinuous, and has strong spatial anisotropy. The rock physical response characteristics are significantly different from those of the surrounding rocks. However, due to the thin reservoir, the seismic response characteristics are not obvious, and the interpretation is difficult, which brings great challenges to the implementation of development wells.

[0003] In the integrated exploration mode of seismic exploration acquisition, processing and interpretation, thin reservoir prediction is an important part of this systematic project. The existing methods mainly use the results of seismic exploration to predict the underground reservoir distribution, but the prediction results are not fine enough and there are differences from the interpretation results of new wells. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a thin reservoir prediction method, device, equipment and medium with multi-attribute fusion to improve the drilling efficiency and wellbore quality, accelerate the oil and gas exploration process, and improve the exploration efficiency.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical method adopted by the present invention is as follows: A thin reservoir prediction method with multi-attribute fusion includes the following steps: S1. Perform synthetic seismogram calibration based on seismic data and well logging data in the study area, combine the seismic cross-section passing through the well to conduct seismic structure interpretation of the structure beside the well, compare the actual drilling depth of the seismic marker bed with the depth of the seismic structure interpretation horizon, and determine the well trajectory position; S2. According to the well trajectory position, use seismic data to extract seismic attributes reflecting reservoir characteristics; S3. Use the principal component analysis technique to compress the seismic attribute space extracted in step S2, and optimize the effective seismic attributes that can reflect the reservoir spatial distribution characteristics and are independent of each other; S4. Further optimize the effective seismic attributes, and predict the reservoir distribution according to the optimized effective seismic attributes; S5. Analyze whether the prediction result meets the geological expectation.

[0006] As a limitation: the seismic attributes extracted in step S2 include peak amplitude attribute, thickness attribute and trough amplitude attribute; The peak amplitude attribute is the maximum energy value within the distribution range of the reservoir section calculated based on seismic data. The location with a larger peak amplitude attribute value is a favorable area for reservoir development; The thickness attribute is the thickness value of the area where the energy of the reservoir section is greater than 0 calculated based on seismic data. The location with a larger thickness attribute is a favorable area for reservoir development; The trough amplitude attribute is the minimum energy value less than 0 inside the rock formation calculated based on seismic data. The location with a smaller trough amplitude attribute is a favorable area for reservoir development.

[0007] As a limitation: In step S4, the further optimization of the effective seismic attributes specifically is: making a cross-plot of the reservoir thickness in the single-well logging interpretation in the logging data interpretation of the study area and the effective seismic attribute values of the rock formation in the study area, analyzing the correlation between the reservoir thickness and the effective seismic attributes, and optimizing the effective seismic attributes with higher correlation.

[0008] As a further limitation: In step S4, the reservoir distribution prediction specifically is: using the effective seismic attributes with higher correlation to predict the reservoir distribution, and the calculation formula is: A = peak amplitude attribute value / (trough amplitude attribute value × thickness attribute value), where A is the reservoir development probability, and the larger A is, the more developed the reservoir is.

[0009] As a further limitation: In step S5, specifically is: verifying the effect through the logging reservoir thickness value. When the logging reservoir thickness value is larger, calculating the reservoir development probability A at this logging reservoir thickness. If the reservoir development probability A is a larger value, the prediction result conforms to the geological expectation. If the reservoir development probability A is not a larger value, corresponding measures are taken to modify the well trajectory.

[0010] The present invention also discloses a thin reservoir prediction device for multi-attribute fusion, including: A well trajectory position determination module, which performs synthetic record calibration based on the seismic data and logging data in the study area, combines the seismic profile passing through the well to conduct seismic structure interpretation on the structure beside the well, and compares the actual drilling depth of the seismic marker layer with the depth of the seismic structure interpretation horizon to determine the well trajectory position; A seismic attribute extraction module, which extracts seismic attributes reflecting reservoir characteristics using seismic data according to the well trajectory position; A seismic attribute optimization module, which compresses the seismic attribute space extracted in step S2 using the principal component analysis technique, and optimizes the effective seismic attributes that can reflect the reservoir spatial distribution characteristics and are independent of each other; A reservoir distribution prediction module, which further optimizes the effective seismic attributes, and predicts the reservoir distribution according to the optimized effective seismic attributes; A prediction analysis module, which is used to analyze whether the prediction result conforms to the geological expectation.

[0011] The present invention also discloses an electronic device, which includes a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored on the memory and capable of running on the processor. When the processor executes the computer program, the above method is implemented.

[0012] The present invention also discloses a computer-readable storage medium, on which a computer program is stored. When the computer program is executed by a processor, the above method is implemented.

[0013] Due to the adoption of the above solution, the beneficial effects achieved by the present invention compared with the prior art are as follows: (1) A thin reservoir prediction method with multi-attribute fusion provided by the present invention uses the joint synthetic record calibration of seismic data and logging data, extracts seismic attributes reflecting reservoir characteristics based on seismic data, and uses the multi-attribute fusion technology to finely predict the development of thin reservoirs, accurately feedbacks well-seismic information to decision-makers, studies and processes new problems occurring during the actual drilling process, takes corresponding measures in a timely manner, accelerates the oil and gas exploration process, improves the exploration efficiency, predicts new situations that may occur next, greatly improves the working efficiency of drilling, and the wellbore quality; (2) The present invention also provides corresponding implementation devices, electronic devices, and readable storage media, further making the method more practical, and the devices, electronic devices, and readable storage media have corresponding advantages.
