Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of geophysical exploration technology, in particular to a shale reservoir geostress prediction method and device. BACKGROUND

[0002] Geostress is a characteristic response of elastic deformation caused by the action of geological structure movement, gravity of the earth and additional power of underground engineering on the internal unit of medium. The accurate prediction of geostress is of great significance to shale gas exploration and development.

[0003] Nowadays, geostress prediction technology has made great progress in many fields. For example, using logging data to calculate geostress, geomechanics numerical simulation of geostress, and the rising of prestack seismic inversion based geostress prediction in recent years. The current geostress prediction method based on prestack seismic inversion mainly assumes that the bottom model is a horizontal transverse isotropy (HTI) or vertical transverse isotropy (VTI) medium model, and estimates the formation geostress size by calculating the difference ratio of maximum horizontal stress and minimum horizontal stress. This method uses the reflection coefficient approximation equation proposed by Ruger or Bachrach, and extracts the weak anisotropy parameters proposed by Thomsen based on prestack seismic inversion to calculate the geostress.

[0082] Performing pre-stack seismic inversion under the constraint of the low-frequency model to obtain the plurality of perturbation elastic impedance data bodies.

[0083] Therefore, the prediction method of the shale reservoir ground stress provided by the embodiments of the present application uses the elastic impedance equation based on the orthogonal anisotropic medium to divide the isotropic elastic impedance approximation equation facing the longitudinal and transverse wave velocities and the density to obtain the perturbation elastic impedance equation, to establish the relationship between the perturbation elastic impedance and the anisotropic parameters, to realize the targeted inversion, and then through the anisotropic parameters, the shale reservoir ground stress can be calculated. Since the perturbation elastic impedance equation eliminates the influence of the isotropic part on the seismic reflection coefficient, for the perturbation elastic impedance, its change is entirely from the anisotropic part, and thus the inversion stability is good and the inversion precision is high.

[0084] The embodiments of the present application also provide a prediction method of shale reservoir ground stress, and a method flowchart thereof is as followsFigure 2 The method comprises the following steps:

[0085] In step 201, reservoir characteristic information of the shale is obtained.

[0086] The reservoir characteristic information comprises P-wave velocity, S-wave velocity, density, Lame constant, shear modulus, Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio.

[0087] The reservoir characteristic information is obtained to prepare data for subsequent establishment of a low-frequency model.

[0088] In step 202, the reservoir characteristic information of the shale is substituted into post-stack inversion software to perform well-seismic calibration, wavelet extraction and establishment of a low-frequency model.

[0089] In some embodiments, the post-stack inversion software of FUGRO JASON can be used to perform well-seismic calibration, wavelet extraction and establishment of a low-frequency model.

[0090] The post-stack inversion software is a relatively mature software, and the low-frequency model required can be directly obtained by substituting the reservoir characteristic information.

[0091] In this step, the purpose of establishing the low-frequency model is to subsequently perform pre-stack seismic inversion under the constraint of the low-frequency model to obtain a plurality of perturbed elastic impedance data bodies.

[0092] In step 203, seismic data is obtained.

[0093] The seismic data comprises seismic data of partial incidence angles and azimuthal stacking.

[0094] It can be understood that the seismic data includes but is not limited to azimuth and incidence angle, for example, can also include azimuthal pre-stack gather, seismic interpretation horizon, etc.

[0095] The purpose of this step is to prepare data for subsequent pre-stack seismic inversion.

[0096] In step 204, pre-stack seismic inversion is performed based on the seismic data to obtain a plurality of perturbed elastic impedance data bodies, wherein the values of the angle and / or azimuth of any two perturbed elastic impedance data bodies are different.

[0097] By performing twice different pre-stack seismic inversion on the seismic data, isotropic impedance data bodies and elastic impedance data bodies can be obtained to prepare for subsequent solution of anisotropic parameters.

[0098] In some embodiments, this step includes inverting multiple perturbation elastic impedance data volumes superimposed at different angles and orientations under low-frequency model constraints. In this embodiment of the invention, since the target parameter has two anisotropic gradients, at least two perturbation elastic impedance data volumes in different orientations are obtained through inversion, and the pre-stack seismic inversion has an objective function.

[0099] The objective function is calculated using the following formula:

[0100]

[0101] In the formula: m represents the model parameters; d represents the observed seismic data under noisy conditions; G represents the wavelet matrix; This represents the variance of the noise; This represents the variance of the model parameters;

[0102] α EI This represents the constraint coefficient.

[0103] Understandably, the objective function requires substituting the superimposed angle data for each azimuth, the corresponding seismic wavelet, and the azimuth elastic impedance to obtain the disturbance elastic impedance data volume that best matches reality. Therefore, the above steps are repeated, substituting the superimposed angle disturbance elastic impedance data volumes for different incident angles and azimuths to obtain the disturbance elastic impedance data volumes for different angles and azimuths in the actual work area.

[0104] Unlike isotropic elastic impedance inversion, seismic information needs to include both incident angle and azimuth information due to the addition of an anisotropic component.

[0105] Step 205: Divide the elastic impedance equation based on the orthogonal anisotropic medium by the isotropic elastic impedance approximation equation for the longitudinal and transverse wave velocities and densities to obtain the perturbation elastic impedance equation.

[0106] Since the elastic impedance equation based on orthogonal anisotropic media divided by the isotropic elastic impedance approximation equation facing the longitudinal and transverse wave velocities and densities are both existing equations, the perturbation elastic impedance equation can be derived based on the above two existing equations, and then the anisotropic parameters can be obtained by solving the perturbation elastic impedance equation.

[0107] This step specifically includes: obtaining the elastic impedance equation based on orthotropic media, wherein the calculation formula for the elastic impedance equation based on orthotropic media is:

[0108]

[0109] An isotropic elastic impedance approximation equation for P-and S-wave velocity and density is obtained, and a calculation formula of the isotropic elastic impedance approximation equation for P-and S-wave velocity and density is as follows:

[0110] EI iso (θ)=α0ρ0(α) a(θ) (β) b(θ) (ρ) c(θ) ;

[0111] The elastic impedance equation based on the orthotropic medium is divided by the isotropic elastic impedance approximation equation for P-and S-wave velocity and density to obtain a perturbation elastic impedance equation, and a calculation formula of the perturbation elastic impedance equation is as follows:

[0112]

[0113] In the above formulas, α represents P-wave velocity; β represents S-wave velocity; ρ represents density; θ represents an incident angle; represents an azimuth angle; α(θ)=sec 2 θ, b(θ)=-8g sin 2 θ, c(θ)=1-4g sin 2 θ, Г x represents an anisotropy gradient in the X direction, and Г y represents an anisotropy gradient in the Y direction.

[0114] In step 206, the anisotropy parameters are calculated by substituting the multiple perturbation elastic impedance data bodies into the perturbation elastic impedance equation.

[0115] The anisotropy parameters can be calculated by substituting the multiple perturbation elastic impedance data bodies into the perturbation elastic impedance equation, and the shale reservoir in-situ stress can be calculated by using the anisotropy parameters.

[0116] This step specifically includes: extracting the anisotropy parameters in the perturbation elastic impedance equation by using the inversion obtained perturbation elastic impedance data body; since the parameters in the perturbation elastic impedance equation present a nonlinear relationship, which is not conducive to calculation and is not conducive to the stability of inversion, the perturbation elastic impedance equation is linearly changed to obtain:

[0117]

[0118] The multiple obtained perturbation elastic impedance data bodies are substituted to construct an equation between the elastic impedance and the anisotropy parameters.

[0119] Optionally, taking the substitution of two volumes of perturbed elastic impedance data as an example, the system of equations between the elastic impedance and the anisotropy parameters is as follows:

[0120]

[0121] Rewritten in matrix form, it is:

[0122]

[0123] Finally, by substituting the perturbation elastic impedance data into the data volume, the anisotropic parameters can be extracted.

[0124] Step 207: Calculate the in-situ stress of the shale reservoir based on the anisotropy parameters.

[0125] This step specifically includes: The formula for calculating the in-situ stress in shale reservoirs is as follows:

[0126] Geostress=Γ x Γ y ,

[0127] In the formula: Geostress represents the geostress index of shale reservoirs.

[0128] To verify the feasibility of the shale reservoir in-situ stress prediction method provided in this embodiment of the invention, a well in an actual work area can be selected as a model for verification. After calculation, the target parameter logging curve is as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the anisotropic gradient parameters are inverted using the equation proposed in this embodiment of the invention. Parameter extraction is performed under three conditions: no noise, signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 10, and SNR of 5. The results are as follows: Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown.

[0129] The data in the figure show that the inversion results are in good agreement with the actual data. Even with added noise, the perturbation elastic impedance equation still has good stability and accuracy, which verifies the applicability of the method.
