Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of geological exploration technology, and in particular to a method and apparatus for predicting the success rate of oil and gas exploration. Background Technology

[0002] Evaluate and predict the success rate of exploration targets, select favorable areas, avoid drilling risks, and provide a basis for decision-making in oil and gas drilling deployment.

[0003] Exploration risk prediction and assessment methods can be summarized into three main categories.

[0004] The first type, the genetic method, overlays geological factors controlling hydrocarbon accumulation, such as hydrocarbon source, reservoir, caprock, migration, trap, and preservation conditions, onto a single geological map. This describes the favorable areas and geological risks of the spatial distribution of hydrocarbon resources. This is a conventional method for geological risk assessment. This type of method, based on the genetic mechanism-driven overlay mapping, is a qualitative or semi-quantitative assessment. Its drawback is the lack of quantitative models or the relatively simple models.

[0005] The second category is multivariate statistical methods. These methods use statistical models to predict the spatial distribution of oil and gas resources based on information about the spatial distribution characteristics of oil and gas wells and non-oil and gas wells revealed by exploration wells. This method emphasizes information from individual wells but ignores other geological information. This second type of method only considers the distance from exploration wells to "oil and gas wells," neglecting the distance to "non-oil and gas wells," and has no advantage when the sample size is large.

[0006] The third category comprises comprehensive methods, such as object-oriented stochastic simulation and geological model-based stochastic simulation. For example, information integration methods combine geological, geophysical, and exploration engineering information to reflect the spatial distribution characteristics of oil and gas resources, and represent the distribution using maps to make the prediction results more intuitive. Another method uses multivariate statistics and information processing techniques to predict the spatial distribution of oil and gas resources. This involves integrating information using Mahalanobis distance discrimination, calculating the probability of oil and gas content in known samples using Bayes' theorem, and establishing a template for the probability of oil and gas content under different Mahalanobis distance values. This template is then used to predict the spatial distribution of oil and gas resources. A data-driven model using logistic regression integrates existing geoscience information and current exploration results to obtain a quantitative logistic regression relationship between oil and gas occurrence and key geological factors, which is then used to predict the probability of oil and gas occurrence. This third category of methods is a statistical method that combines geological understanding. It has mature statistical algorithms and a wide range of applications, but it lacks statistical experience data and models specific to regional geological conditions and drilling results, resulting in poor targeting.

[0007] In summary, the accuracy of existing methods for predicting the success rate of oil and gas exploration is relatively low. Summary of the Invention

[0008] This invention proposes a method for predicting the success rate of oil and gas exploration, which is used to accurately predict the success rate of oil and gas exploration. The method includes:

[0009] Quantitatively evaluate multiple hydrocarbon accumulation geological conditions in the study area and obtain multiple single-factor geological evaluation value maps;

[0010] Based on the location of multiple exploration wells in the study area, the single-factor geological evaluation value of each exploration well is extracted from each single-factor geological evaluation value map. The single-factor geological evaluation value of each exploration well and the type of each exploration well are combined into training set data.

[0011] Calculate the log-Madovish distance from each well to each well type in the training set data;

[0012] Draw a two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid based on the calculated log Mahalanobis distance;

[0013] Calculate the success rate of oil and gas exploration for each grid in a two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid map.

[0014] This invention provides an oil and gas detection success rate prediction device for accurately predicting the success rate of oil and gas detection. The device includes:

[0015] The module for obtaining single-factor geological evaluation value maps is used to quantitatively evaluate multiple hydrocarbon accumulation geological conditions in the study area and obtain multiple single-factor geological evaluation value maps.

[0016] The training set data acquisition module is used to extract the single-factor geological evaluation value of each well from each single-factor geological evaluation value map based on the location of multiple wells in the study area, and combine the single-factor geological evaluation value of each well and the type of each well into training set data.

[0017] The log-Mahland distance calculation module is used to calculate the log-Mahland distance from each well to each well type in the training set data.

[0018] The 2D Mahalanobis distance grid plotting module is used to plot a 2D Mahalanobis distance grid plot based on the calculated logarithmic Mahalanobis distance.

[0019] The oil and gas exploration success rate calculation module is used to calculate the oil and gas exploration success rate of each grid in a two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid map.

[0020] This invention also proposes a computer device, including a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor. When the processor executes the computer program, it implements the above-mentioned oil and gas detection success rate prediction method.

[0021] This invention also proposes a computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program that executes the above-described oil and gas exploration success rate prediction method.

[0022] In this embodiment of the invention, multiple hydrocarbon accumulation geological conditions in the study area are quantitatively evaluated to obtain multiple single-factor geological evaluation value maps. Based on the location of multiple exploration wells within the study area, the single-factor geological evaluation value of each well is extracted from each single-factor geological evaluation value map. The single-factor geological evaluation value of each well and the type of each well are combined to form training set data. The logarithmic Mahalanobis distance from each well to each well type in the training set data is calculated. A two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid map is drawn based on the calculated logarithmic Mahalanobis distance. The success rate of hydrocarbon exploration for each grid in the two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid map is calculated. In the above process, by calculating the logarithmic Mahalanobis distance from each well to each well type and drawing a two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid map, the success rate of hydrocarbon exploration for each grid in the two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid map can be obtained, resulting in high computational efficiency and high accuracy.

[0036] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Here, the illustrative embodiments of the present invention and their descriptions are used to explain the present invention, but are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0037] In the description of this specification, the terms "comprising," "including," "having," and "containing" are open-ended terms, meaning that they include but are not limited to. The terms "an embodiment," "a specific embodiment," "some embodiments," and "for example," etc., refer to specific features, structures, or characteristics described in connection with that embodiment or example that are included in at least one embodiment or example of this application. In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Furthermore, the specific features, structures, or characteristics described can be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples. The order of steps involved in the various embodiments is used to illustrate the implementation of this application, and the order of steps is not limited and can be adjusted appropriately as needed.

[0038] Figure 1 This is a flowchart of the oil and gas detection success rate prediction method in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:

[0039] Step 101: Quantitatively evaluate multiple hydrocarbon accumulation geological conditions in the study area and obtain multiple single-factor geological evaluation value maps;

[0040] Step 102: Based on the location of multiple exploration wells in the study area, extract the single-factor geological evaluation value of each exploration well from each single-factor geological evaluation value map, and combine the single-factor geological evaluation value of each exploration well and the type of each exploration well into training set data;

[0041] Step 103: Calculate the log-Madaras distance from each well to each well type in the training set data;

[0042] Step 104: Draw a two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid based on the calculated log-Mahalanobis distance;

[0043] Step 105: Calculate the oil and gas exploration success rate for each grid in the two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid map.

[0044] In this embodiment of the invention, by calculating the logarithmic Mahalanobis distance from each exploration well to each type of exploration well and drawing a two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid, the success rate of oil and gas exploration for each grid in the two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid can be obtained, which has high calculation efficiency and high accuracy.

[0045] In one embodiment, the geological conditions for hydrocarbon accumulation include one or any combination of hydrocarbon generation or supply conditions, reservoir conditions, trap conditions, caprock conditions, and preservation conditions.

[0046] In step 101, multiple hydrocarbon accumulation geological conditions in the study area are quantitatively evaluated to obtain multiple single-factor geological evaluation value maps. The highest evaluation value is set to 1, and the lowest evaluation value to 0. Each hydrocarbon accumulation geological condition is quantitatively evaluated to obtain single-factor geological evaluation values, such as hydrocarbon generation or supply conditions, reservoir conditions, trap conditions, caprock conditions, and preservation conditions. These can be represented by single-factor geological evaluation values: R1, R2, R3, R4, and R5. Single-factor geological evaluation value maps for multiple points in the study area are then plotted, abbreviated as R1-Map, R2-Map, R3-Map, R4-Map, and R5-Map. The values ​​of R1, R2, R3, R4, and R5 are between 0 and 1.

[0047] In step 102, based on the locations of multiple exploration wells within the study area, the single-factor geological evaluation value of each exploration well is extracted from each single-factor geological evaluation value map. The single-factor geological evaluation value of each exploration well and the type of each exploration well are combined to form training set data. Specifically, the single-factor geological evaluation values ​​of all exploration wells are extracted from R1-Map, R2-Map, R3-Map, R4-Map, and R5-Map, namely R1(k), R2(k), R3(k), R4(k), and R5(k). Here, k is the sequence number of the exploration well. In one embodiment, the types of exploration wells include oil and gas wells and non-oil and gas wells. The single-factor geological evaluation values ​​(R1, R2, R3, R4, R5) of all exploration wells and the type of the exploration well are combined to form training set data A. MD The number of single-factor geological evaluation values ​​is determined by the geological conditions of the study area, and is generally 3 to 5. If there are 3, they are represented by R1, R2, and R3; if there are 4, they are represented by R1, R2, R3, and R4; and so on for other numbers.

[0048] In one embodiment, calculating the log-Madaras distance from each well to each well type in the training set data includes:

[0049] Calculate the Mahalanobis distance from each well to each well type in the training set data;

[0050] Calculate the logarithmic Mahalanobis distance based on the Mahalanobis distance.

[0051] Mahalanobis distance values ​​exhibit logarithmic variation, making statistical analysis difficult. Therefore, it is necessary to convert the geological evaluation values ​​into linearly varying values. Simultaneously, to avoid negative logarithmic Mahalanobis distances, a bias value needs to be added. Therefore, in one embodiment, the following formula is used to calculate the logarithmic Mahalanobis distance based on the stated Mahalanobis distance:

[0052] D oil =ln(d oil +a)

[0053] D dry =ln(d dry +a)

[0054] Among them, D oil D dry , , are the logarithmic values ​​of the Mahalanobis distances from each exploration well to oil / gas well type and non-oil / gas well type, respectively; a is the deviation value; d oil d dry These represent the distances from each exploration well to oil and gas well types and to non-oil and gas well types, respectively.

[0055] In one embodiment, drawing a two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid based on the calculated log-Mahalanobis distance includes:

[0056] Based on the minimum and maximum distribution of the logarithmic Mahalanobis distance from all exploration wells to oil and gas well types, the logarithmic Mahalanobis distance from all exploration wells to oil and gas well types is divided into a first number of intervals.

[0057] Based on the minimum and maximum distribution of the logarithmic Mahalanobis distance from all exploration wells to non-oil and gas well types, the logarithmic Mahalanobis distance from all exploration wells to non-oil and gas well types is divided into a second number of intervals.

[0058] A two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid is plotted with the logarithmic Mahalanobis distance from all exploration wells to oil and gas well types as the x-axis and the logarithmic Mahalanobis distance from all exploration wells to non-oil and gas well types as the y-axis.

[0059] Generally, both the first and second quantities are not less than 3. The number of grids in a two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid is the first quantity multiplied by the second quantity.

[0060] In one embodiment, the oil and gas exploration success rate of each grid in a two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid map is calculated using the following formula:

[0061] P(i,j)=100×S(i,j) / [S(i,j)+F(i,j)]

[0062] Where P(i,j) is the success rate of oil and gas exploration in grid (i,j), i = 0, 1, 2, ..., n-1, n is the first quantity, j = 0, 1, 2, ..., m-1, m is the second quantity; S(i,j) is the number of exploration wells in grid (i,j) that belong to the oil and gas well type; F(i,j) is the number of exploration wells in grid (i,j) that belong to the non-oil and gas well type.

[0063] This gives us an accurate value for the success rate of oil and gas exploration for each grid.

[0064] In one embodiment, the method further includes:

[0065] The success rate of oil and gas exploration in grids without exploration wells in a two-dimensional Marshall distance grid is smoothed.

[0066] This is because when there are no exploration wells in some grids, i.e. S(i,j)+F(i,j)=0, in order to improve the data continuity between grids, this invention proposes a smoothing processing method.

[0067] In one embodiment, the oil and gas exploration success rate of grids without exploration wells in a two-dimensional Marshall distance grid is smoothed, including:

[0068] When grid number i = 0 and j = 0, the following formula is used for smoothing:

[0069]

[0070] When grid number i = n-1 and j = 0, the following formula is used for smoothing:

[0071]

[0072] When grid number i = n-1 and j = m-1, the following formula is used for smoothing:

[0073]

[0074] When grid number i = 0 and j = m-1, the following formula is used for smoothing:

[0075]

[0076] When the grid consists of the four corner grids of a non-two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid, and i = 0 or i = n-1, the following formula is used for smoothing:

[0077]

[0078] When the grid consists of the four corner grids of a non-two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid, and j = 0 or j = m-1, the following formula is used for smoothing:

[0079]

[0080] In other cases, the following formula is used for smoothing:

[0081]

[0082] in, P(i,j) represents the oil and gas exploration success rate after grid (i,j) smoothing; P(i,j) represents the oil and gas exploration success rate before grid (i,j) smoothing.

[0083] After calculating the oil and gas exploration success rate for each grid, the two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid map can be transformed into an exploration success rate map, i.e., a risk visualization map, which is convenient for application and query.

[0084] The following is a specific embodiment to illustrate the specific application of the method proposed in this invention.

[0085] This embodiment comes from the Sangonghe Formation in the interior of the Junggar Basin.

[0086] The study area is located in the heart of the Junggar Basin, spanning 160 km east to west and 170 km north to south, with an area of ​​approximately 2.7 × 10⁴ km². 2 The study area includes the West Depression of Well 1, the Mosuowan Uplift, and the Luxi Uplift. The target stratum is the Jurassic Sangonghe Formation (J1s), the source rock is the Lower Permian Wuerhe Formation (P2w), and the caprock is Jurassic shale. The study area slopes from south to north, with finer facies in the south and coarser facies in the north. Oil and gas migrate from bottom to top and from south to north, forming fault-nose, fault-block, and lithological stratigraphic reservoirs. By the end of 2019, more than 203 exploration and appraisal wells had encountered the Sangonghe Formation and completed oil testing. Some oil and gas fields have been discovered in the Mosuowan Uplift, Mobei, Shixi, Shinan, and Xiayan areas.

[0087] This example uses four hydrocarbon accumulation geological conditions: reservoir conditions, trap conditions, hydrocarbon supply conditions, and caprock and preservation conditions. Among them, the caprock and preservation conditions are a combination of the caprock conditions and preservation conditions, mainly considering the geological conditions of this example.

[0088] (1) Reservoir conditions

[0089] Based on sedimentary microfacies, reservoir conditions were quantitatively evaluated, ranked in descending order of quality as follows: underwater distributary channels, sheet sands, beaches and sandy debris flows, interdistributary bays, and littoral lacustrines. The corresponding evaluation values ​​are shown in Table 1. Within the same sedimentary microfacies, the evaluation value for each point was a random sample from the minimum to the maximum value of that microfacies. Taking underwater distributary channels as an example, the sampling range was from 0.7 to 0.9, and the random sampled value was any real number between 0.7 and 0.9, inclusive. Using the above method, the sedimentary microfacies map was converted into a geological evaluation value map of reservoir conditions. Figure 2 This is a geological evaluation value diagram of the Sangonghe Formation reservoir conditions in the implementation of this invention.

[0090] Table 1

[0091]

[0092]

[0093] (2) Trap conditions

[0094] Based on the structural map of the top boundary of the Sangonghe Formation and the results of trap interpretation, structural traps are divided into two levels: confirmed traps and unconfirmed traps (see Table 2). Based on sedimentary microfacies maps, lithological traps are divided into two levels: lithological lenses (shoals, bars, etc.) and lithological barriers (bays, etc.). Furthermore, discovered oil and gas reservoirs are confirmed traps. Similarly, a geological evaluation value map of trap conditions was drawn using a random sampling method. Figure 3 This is a geological evaluation value diagram of the trap conditions of the Sangonghe Formation in the implementation of this invention.

[0095] Table 2

[0096] Classification Enclosed Minimum value (dimensionless) Maximum value (dimensionless) I Oil and gas reservoirs have been discovered. 1.0 1.0 II Implementing a trap (structural type) 0.7 0.8 III Pending confirmation of trap (structural type) 0.6 0.7 IV Lithological lenses (shoals, dams, etc.) 0.5 0.6 V Lithological barriers (intervals, etc.) 0.3 0.5

[0097] (3) Hydrocarbon supply conditions

[0098] The hydrocarbons in the Sangonghe Formation mainly originate from the underlying Permian Lower Wuerhe Formation source rocks. Vertically, they are primarily connected via source rock faults, while lateral migration is mainly controlled by sand bodies and tectonic ridges. The southern part, closer to the source rock, benefits from faults playing a crucial role in communication, making it relatively favorable overall. The northern part, much farther from the source rock (up to hundreds of kilometers), lacks fault connections and relies mainly on long-distance lateral migration for hydrocarbon supply, making it relatively unfavorable overall. Based on this understanding, and after completing the study of fault distribution and simulation of hydrocarbon migration channels, hydrocarbon supply conditions are divided into four levels: source rock-connecting faults + main path, main path, secondary path, southern near-source area, and northern far-source area (see Table 3). Similarly, a geological evaluation map of hydrocarbon supply conditions was drawn using random sampling. Figure 4 This is a geological evaluation value diagram of hydrocarbon supply conditions in the Sangonghe Formation during the implementation of this invention.

[0099] Table 3

[0100]

[0101]

[0102] (4) Covering layer and preservation conditions

[0103] The caprock and preservation conditions are mainly determined by the development of faults in the overlying strata and the distribution of unconformity weathering zones. Areas with well-developed overlying faults have a destructive effect, resulting in lower evaluation values ​​(0.1–0.2). Unconformity weathered clay provides good protection, leading to higher evaluation values ​​(0.7–0.9). Other areas have relatively well-developed mudstone and shale, acting as local caprocks, with evaluation values ​​(0.4–0.6). Then, a geological evaluation map of caprock and preservation conditions is obtained using random sampling. Figure 5 This is a geological evaluation value diagram of the caprock and preservation conditions of the Sangonghe Formation in the implementation of this invention.

[0104] Then, based on the coordinates of port 203 (see Table 4), from... Figures 2-5 Data from geological evaluation maps of reservoir conditions, trap conditions, hydrocarbon supply conditions, and caprock and preservation conditions were extracted to form training set A. MD .

[0105] Table 4

[0106]

[0107]

[0108]

[0109] Next, the logarithmic Mahalanobis distance from each well to each well type in the training set data was calculated, and the results are shown in the last two columns of Table 4.

[0110] A two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid was constructed based on the calculated logarithmic Mahalanobis distance. The training set contained 203 wells, including 109 oil and gas wells and 94 non-oil and gas wells. The horizontal axis (X-direction) was divided into 10 segments (n=10), and the vertical axis (Y-direction) was divided into 4 segments (m=4), resulting in a two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid consisting of 40 grids. Figure 6 In this embodiment of the invention, a two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid diagram of the logarithmic Mahalanobis distance from all exploration wells to oil and gas well types is presented. Figure 7 This is a two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid diagram of the logarithmic Mahalanobis distances from all exploration wells to non-oil and gas well types in this embodiment of the invention.

[0111] Based on the D of each exploration well in the training set data oil D dry Determine the grid where the well is located. Figure 8This is an initial exploration success rate prediction map in this embodiment of the invention, where 1 / 4 represents the number of oil and gas wells / total number of wells. The number of oil and gas wells in each grid is counted. Figure 8 (middle molecule) and total number of wells ( Figure 8 The middle denominator), then calculate the exploration success rate in each grid (the percentage value in the figure), forming Figure 8 The initial exploration success rate prediction map. For grids without exploration wells, the initial value is set to 0.5.

[0112] To improve the continuity of data between grids, 10 smoothing processes were performed, resulting in a smoothed exploration success rate map. Figure 9 This is a prediction chart of exploration success rate after multiple smoothing processes in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0113] Alternatively, it can be used as Figure 9 The exploration success rate prediction chart is a two-dimensional scale. Figure 6 and Figure 7 This is converted into an exploration success rate map, i.e., a risk visualization map. Figure 10 ), Figure 10 This is a graph showing the exploration success rate in an embodiment of the present invention.

[0114] In summary, the method proposed in this invention quantitatively evaluates multiple hydrocarbon accumulation geological conditions in the study area, obtaining multiple single-factor geological evaluation value maps. Based on the locations of multiple exploration wells within the study area, the single-factor geological evaluation value of each well is extracted from each single-factor geological evaluation value map. The single-factor geological evaluation value of each well and the type of each well are combined to form training set data. The logarithmic Mahalanobis distance from each well to each well type in the training set data is calculated. A two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid map is drawn based on the calculated logarithmic Mahalanobis distance. The success rate of hydrocarbon exploration for each grid in the two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid map is calculated. In the above process, by calculating the logarithmic Mahalanobis distance from each well to each well type and drawing a two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid map, the success rate of hydrocarbon exploration for each grid in the two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid map can be obtained, resulting in high computational efficiency and high accuracy.

[0115] This invention also proposes an oil and gas detection success rate prediction device, the principle of which is similar to the oil and gas detection success rate prediction method, and will not be described in detail here.

[0116] Figure 11 This is a schematic diagram of the oil and gas detection success rate prediction device in an embodiment of the present invention, as shown below. Figure 11 As shown, it includes:

[0121] The oil and gas exploration success rate calculation module 1105 is used to calculate the oil and gas exploration success rate of each grid in a two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid map.

[0122] In one embodiment, the geological conditions for hydrocarbon accumulation include one or any combination of hydrocarbon generation or supply conditions, reservoir conditions, trap conditions, caprock conditions, and preservation conditions.

[0123] In one embodiment, the type of exploration well includes oil and gas well types and non-oil and gas well types.

[0128] The logarithmic Mahalanobis distance is calculated using the following formula based on the Mahalanobis distance:

Based on the locations of multiple exploration wells within the study area, the single-factor geological evaluation value of each well is extracted from each single-factor geological evaluation value map. The single-factor geological evaluation value of each well and the type of each well are combined to form training set data. The logarithmic Mahalanobis distance from each well to each well type in the training set data is calculated. A two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid map is drawn based on the calculated logarithmic Mahalanobis distance. The success rate of hydrocarbon exploration for each grid in the two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid map is calculated. In the above process, by calculating the logarithmic Mahalanobis distance from each well to each well type and drawing a two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid map, the success rate of hydrocarbon exploration for each grid in the two-dimensional Mahalanobis distance grid map can be obtained, resulting in high computational efficiency and high accuracy.
