Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of geosteering while drilling and formation evaluation in borehole geophysical methods, and particularly to a resistivity imaging method and device based on far-detection electromagnetic logging. Background Art

[0002] Developing oil and gas resources in deep earth and deep sea is an important direction for future energy development. Geosteering while drilling technology is a key technology for drilling horizontal wells and developing deep oil and gas reservoirs, which is crucial for accurately hitting the target layer, avoiding drilling risks in real time, and maximizing the oil and gas productivity of horizontal wells. The far-detection electromagnetic logging that has emerged in recent years is the current geological steering instrument with the farthest detection range, whose detection range can reach dozens of meters, and realizes the full tensor measurement of formation resistivity, and has broad application prospects and market value in the fields of three-dimensional geological steering while drilling, oil-water interface imaging, formation evaluation, and fine reservoir description.

[0003] However, the method of measuring and imaging formation resistivity by far-detection electromagnetic waves involves the complex three-dimensional problem of electromagnetic logging data inversion, and more than 95% of the time in inversion is used for forward modeling. The calculation efficiency of three-dimensional forward modeling cannot meet the requirements of real-time steering. Therefore, the industry generally adopts the technology of reducing the model dimension. For example, under the condition of ignoring the influence of the well, the three-dimensional model is simplified into a one-dimensional layered medium model by using the sliding window technology. However, the far-detection electromagnetic wave instrument has a large detection depth and can detect multiple discontinuous and heterogeneous formation interfaces, such as pinched-out formations, folds, and unconformities, which are difficult to be simplified into one-dimensional problems. At the same time, the existing inversion efficiency of inverting far-detection electromagnetic logging data using two-dimensional algorithms is low and overly dependent on human experience, bringing great risks to geosteering while drilling.

[0038] To make the objectives, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and understandable, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described below are only some embodiments of the present invention, rather than all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0046] Optionally, the prior information of the formation includes at least one of geological data, seismic data, and adjacent well data.

[0047] Step 4: Select discrete wave numbers and obtain the far-detected electromagnetic logging response in the wave number domain of the corresponding resistivity grid model.

[0048] Specifically, select discrete wave numbers, and in the wave number domain, a two-dimensional numerical algorithm can be used to calculate the far-detected electromagnetic logging response in the wave number domain of the corresponding resistivity grid model. Among them, the two-dimensional numerical algorithm includes but is not limited to the finite element method and the finite difference method.

[0049] Step 5: Obtain the posterior error and determine whether the posterior error is less than the first threshold; if the posterior error is less than the first threshold, obtain the simulated value of the far-detected electromagnetic logging response based on the far-detected electromagnetic logging response in the wave number domain.

[0050] Specifically, the posterior error of the magnetic field or electric field at the receiving coil can be estimated through the adjoint equation.

[0051] Among them, refer to Figure 2As shown, step 5 further includes: if the posterior error is greater than the first threshold, locally refine the grid according to the cell error distribution in the posterior error, and repeat steps 4 - 5 until the posterior error is less than the first threshold, so as to obtain an optimized resistivity grid model.

[0060] In this embodiment, it is assumed that the formation is a stratified sedimentary formation, that is, it is assumed that the formation only changes in the inversion section and remains unchanged in the direction perpendicular to the section. The far-detection electromagnetic logging 2.5D fast imaging algorithm described in the present invention is used to invert and process the far-detection electromagnetic logging data, and the two-dimensional resistivity profile obtained is as Figure 4 shown. Figure 4 The horizontal axis coordinate is the horizontal position of the well, the vertical axis coordinate is the well depth, and the color scale is the resistivity obtained by inversion. The instrument drills from a depth of 300 ft to a depth of 550 ft, and the well deviation angle is 85°. As Figure 4 shown, the grid adaptive 2.5D fast imaging algorithm described in the present invention can determine the resistivity distribution in the two-dimensional simplified formation, and then obtain the image of the formation interface and the resistivity information in each layer. The drilling engineer can further adjust the wellbore trajectory based on this to ensure that the drill bit drills in the target reservoir.
