Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of oil and gas exploration technology, and in particular to a method, apparatus, electronic device and storage medium for determining lithological trap boundaries. Background Technology
[0002] Turbidite sandstone reservoirs deposited in deep-water environments form lithological traps with the surrounding mudstone. Determining the trap boundaries is not only a major issue in judging the effectiveness of lithological traps, but also directly affects the size of the traps.
[0003] However, the thickness of sand bodies near trap boundaries is usually much lower than the seismic resolution, making it impossible to directly obtain lithological pinch-out points through seismic interpretation. Deep-water sedimentary sand bodies are widely developed, with rapid lateral facies transitions and more complex and diverse lithological assemblages. Furthermore, the number of exploration wells in deep-water areas is small, the well-controlled area is large, and the amplitude threshold for characterizing trap boundaries is difficult to determine. Seismic responses are complex, and manually delineated boundaries have many possible solutions. Therefore, a technique is needed to accurately and quantitatively characterize lithological trap boundaries. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention provides a method, apparatus, electronic device, and storage medium for determining lithological trap boundaries, in order to solve the problem of high uncertainty in trap boundary identification.

[0019] According to another aspect of the present invention, a computer-readable storage medium is provided, which stores computer instructions for causing a processor to execute a method for determining the boundary of a lithological trap according to any embodiment of the present invention.
[0020] According to the technical solution of this invention, the vertical lithological combination of a pseudo-well is simulated based on a continuous-time Markov chain model. The lithofacies curves of different lithological combinations are determined based on the simulation results, enabling more accurate simulation results when simulating pseudo-wells with different lithological combinations, thereby reducing simulation errors.

A forward modeling method based on the wave equation of the propagation matrix is used to determine the simulated seismic data of different lithological combinations using the target elastic parameters, facilitating calculation and reducing the computational burden on computing equipment. By determining the lithological trap boundaries based on the simulated seismic data of different lithological combinations, the final confirmation results of the lithological trap boundaries can best reflect real-world conditions, improving the accuracy of the system's determination results. By adopting the above method, the delineation of trap boundaries has been developed from a qualitative stage to a quantitative stage, which solves the problem of strong uncertainty in trap boundary identification and avoids the problems of strong subjectivity, large deviations in the boundaries delineated by different personnel, and insufficient objective basis in the determination of traditional lithological trap boundaries. This avoids the situation of deviations in the delineation of boundaries caused by human factors.

[0037] Example 1
[0038] Figure 1 This is a flowchart illustrating a method for determining the boundary of a lithological trap, as provided in Embodiment 1 of the present invention. This embodiment is applicable to accurately and quantitatively determining the boundary of a lithological trap when drilling is lacking. This method can be executed by a device for determining the boundary of a lithological trap, which can be implemented in hardware and / or software and can be configured in an electronic device with data processing capabilities. Figure 1 As shown, the method includes:
[0039] S110. Based on the continuous-time Markov chain model, the vertical lithology combination of the pseudo-well is simulated, and the lithological curves of different lithology combinations of the pseudo-well are determined according to the simulation results.
[0040] The continuous-time Markov chain model can be used to represent the transition probability of lithology categories at adjacent time points, and can be expressed using the following formula (1).
[0041] p(π t |π t+1 ,π t+2 ,…,π T )=p(πt |π t+1 (1)
[0042] In the formula, π t Let be the lithology at time t, and p be the transition probability matrix between different lithologies.
[0043] Lithological categories can include, but are not limited to, mudstone, cemented sandstone, limestone, and sandstone. The vertical lithological assemblage of the simulated well can be used to simulate the lithological composition of the well in the vertical direction, where the lithological assemblage can describe the combination of different rocks in their distribution range. The lithofacies curve of the simulated well can be used to describe the lithological assemblage of the simulated well. The simulated well can be a simulated well obtained based on a continuous-time Markov chain model.
[0044] Because geological processes treat stratigraphic profiles as sequences of different rock assemblages, and geological profiles of a given region often conform to Markov properties, and Markov chains have no aftereffects, the probability distribution of lithology at a given time t depends only on the lithology at the previous time t+1, and is independent of other times.
[0045] p(π t |π t+1 ,π t+2 ,…,π T )=p(π t |π t+1 )
[0046] Therefore, the development of lithology in the vertical direction can be simulated using Markov chains. Based on the continuous-time Markov chain model, the vertical lithology combination of the pseudo-well can be simulated to obtain the pseudo-well lithofacies curves of different lithology combinations.
[0047] In one alternative approach, before determining the pseudo-well lithofacies curves for different lithological combinations based on simulation results, the following steps are also included:
[0048] The thickness of each lithology layer in different lithological combinations was simulated based on an exponential probability model.
[0049] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram showing the simulation results of the lithological thickness of each layer in different lithological combinations used in embodiments of the present invention. See also... Figure 2 Since not only are there different lithological combinations in drilling, but the thickness of different lithological layers in the same lithological combination is also different, it is necessary to simulate the vertical lithological combination of the pseudo-well based on the continuous time Markov chain model, and then simulate the thickness of each layer in different lithological combinations based on the exponential probability model, so as to determine the pseudo-well lithofacies curves of different lithological thicknesses of different lithological combinations.
[0050] The exponential probability model is as follows:
[0051] λe-λx
[0052] In the formula, the λ parameter can adjust the mean of the probability.
[0053] S120, Monte Carlo stochastic simulation of elastic parameters based on lithofacies constraints, determines the target elastic parameters through pseudo-well lithofacies curves of different lithological combinations.
[0054] The target elastic parameter can be an elastic parameter used to determine different lithologies.
[0055] After obtaining pseudo-well lithofacies curves with different lithological thicknesses for different lithological combinations, the target elastic parameters for different lithological thicknesses can be obtained by using the Monte Carlo stochastic simulation method for lithofacies-constrained elastic parameters.
[0056] S130, a forward modeling method based on the wave equation of the propagation matrix, determines the simulated seismic data of different lithological combinations using the target elastic parameters.
[0057] The simulated seismic data from a pseudo-well can be the seismic amplitudes of different lithologies obtained by simulating a given actual seismic wavelet. The actual seismic wavelet can be the seismic wavelet used to simulate seismic conditions.
[0058] After obtaining the target elastic parameters, the simulation is carried out using the forward modeling method of the wave equation of the propagation matrix to determine the quantitative response relationship between the pseudo-well lithology profile and the seismic amplitude, thereby obtaining pseudo-well simulated seismic data for different lithology combinations.
[0059] S140. Determine the lithological trap boundary based on simulated seismic data from pseudo-wells with different lithological combinations.
[0060] A lithological trap boundary can be used to describe the boundary of the area enclosed by the target lithology within the monitoring area. The monitoring area can be the area where the lithological trap boundary needs to be determined.
[0061] After obtaining simulated seismic data from pseudo-wells with different lithological combinations, the seismic amplitudes of different lithologies are statistically analyzed based on the simulated seismic data to determine the distribution of different lithologies and thus the lithological trap boundaries.
[0062] According to the technical solution of this invention, the vertical lithological combination of a pseudo-well is simulated based on a continuous-time Markov chain model. The lithofacies curves of different lithological combinations are determined based on the simulation results, enabling more accurate simulation results when simulating pseudo-wells with different lithological combinations, thereby reducing simulation errors. Through Monte Carlo stochastic simulation of elastic parameters based on lithofacies constraints, target elastic parameters are determined using the lithofacies curves of different lithological combinations. A forward modeling method based on the wave equation of the propagation matrix is used to determine the simulated seismic data of different lithological combinations using the target elastic parameters, facilitating calculation and reducing the computational burden on computing equipment. By determining the lithological trap boundaries based on the simulated seismic data of different lithological combinations, the final confirmation results of the lithological trap boundaries can best reflect real-world conditions, improving the accuracy of the system's determination results. By adopting the above method, the delineation of trap boundaries has been developed from a qualitative stage to a quantitative stage, which solves the problem of strong uncertainty in trap boundary identification and avoids the problems of strong subjectivity, large deviations in the boundaries delineated by different personnel, and insufficient objective basis in the determination of traditional lithological trap boundaries. This avoids the situation of deviations in the delineation of boundaries caused by human factors.

[0064] Figure 3 This is a flowchart of another method for determining the boundary of a lithological trap provided in Embodiment 2 of the present invention. Based on the above embodiments, this embodiment further optimizes the process of determining the target elastic parameter through Monte Carlo random simulation of elastic parameters based on lithofacies constraints and pseudo-well lithofacies curves of different lithological combinations, as described in the previous embodiments. This embodiment can be combined with various optional schemes in one or more of the above embodiments. Figure 3 As shown, the method includes:
[0065] S210. Based on the continuous-time Markov chain model, the vertical lithology combination of the pseudo-well is simulated, and the pseudo-well lithofacies curves for different lithology combinations are determined according to the simulation results.

[0067] The candidate elastic parameters include longitudinal wave velocity, transverse wave velocity, and density.
[0068] Candidate elastic parameters can be used to describe the characteristics of different lithological combinations, including but not limited to P-wave velocity, S-wave velocity, and density.

[0072] S250. Based on the sampled values of the longitudinal wave velocity and the linear regression relationship, the transverse wave velocity and density are sampled to obtain the target elastic parameters.

Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the longitudinal wave velocity applicable to the embodiments of the present invention. Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the transverse wave velocity applicable to the embodiments of the present invention. Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the density applicable to embodiments of the present invention. See also... Figure 4 , 5 For parameters 6 and 7, since there is a certain correlation between the candidate elastic parameters, it is necessary to determine the relationship between them. Therefore, the first linear regression relationship between P-wave velocity and density and the second linear regression relationship between P-wave velocity and S-wave velocity are established for the candidate elastic parameters of different lithological combinations. The P-wave velocity is randomly sampled, and then the S-wave velocity and density are sampled based on the sampled P-wave velocity values and the first and second linear regression relationships.
[0074] The target elastic parameters are determined based on the sampled values of longitudinal wave velocity, transverse wave velocity, and density.
[0075] In one alternative approach, the target elastic parameters are obtained by sampling the longitudinal wave velocity and density based on the sampled values of the longitudinal wave velocity and a linear regression relationship, which may include steps A1-A2:
[0076] Step A1: Based on the sampled values of the longitudinal wave velocity and the linear regression relationship, sample the transverse wave velocity and density to obtain the sampled elastic parameters.
[0077] Step A2: Determine the target elastic parameter based on the sampled elastic parameter.
[0078] In one alternative approach, the target elasticity parameter is determined according to the following formula:
[0079]
[0080] Where EEI(χ) is the target elasticity parameter, GI is the gradient impedance, AI0 = ρ0V p0 AI0 is the reference longitudinal wave impedance; AI = ρV p AI is the longitudinal wave impedance, where V p V s ρ represents the target's longitudinal wave velocity, transverse wave velocity, and density, respectively, which are the target's elastic parameters; V p0 V s0 ρ0 represents the reference P-wave velocity, reference S-wave velocity, and reference density, K represents the P-wave velocity ratio constant, and χ represents the CHI angle, with an angle range of -90° < χ < 90°.
[0081] After obtaining the sampled values of longitudinal wave velocity, transverse wave velocity and density, the target elastic parameters can be calculated using the following formula (2).
[0082]
[0083] Where EEI(χ) is the target elasticity parameter, GI is the gradient impedance, AI0 = ρ0V p0 AI0 is the reference longitudinal wave impedance; AI = ρV p AI is the longitudinal wave impedance, where V p V s ρ represents the target's longitudinal wave velocity, transverse wave velocity, and density, respectively, which are the target's elastic parameters; V p0 V s0 ρ0 represents the reference P-wave velocity, reference S-wave velocity, and reference density, K represents the P-wave velocity ratio constant, and χ represents the CHI angle, with an angle range of -90° < χ < 90°.
[0084] S260, a wave equation forward modeling method based on propagation matrix, determines pseudo-well simulated seismic data for different lithological combinations through target elastic parameters.
[0085] S270. Determine the lithological trap boundary based on simulated seismic data from pseudo-wells with different lithological combinations.
[0086] According to the technical solution of this invention, Monte Carlo random simulation of elastic parameters based on lithofacies constraints is used to determine candidate elastic parameters for different lithological combinations through pseudo-well lithofacies curves of different lithological combinations. Based on the candidate elastic parameters of different lithological combinations, a first linear regression relationship between P-wave velocity and density and a second linear regression relationship between P-wave velocity and S-wave velocity are determined. Based on the first and second linear regression relationships, P-wave velocity is randomly sampled. Based on the sampled P-wave velocity values and the linear regression relationships, S-wave velocity and density are sampled to obtain the target elastic parameters. This makes the determination of the target elastic parameters more accurate and avoids data that does not conform to the correlation of candidate elastic parameters when simple sampling occurs, thereby affecting the accuracy of the system's calculation results.

Figure 10 By fitting probability function curves to the two probability distributions, the seismic amplitude value corresponding to the intersection of the two probability distribution function curves is the seismic amplitude threshold for quantitatively distinguishing lithological trap pinch-out lines. Using the lithological trap threshold as the cutoff value, areas with amplitude values below the cutoff value are filtered out, and the remaining amplitude anomaly areas are the trap ranges, with the boundaries of the amplitude anomaly areas being the lithological trap boundaries.
