Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of seismic exploration, and in particular to a curvelet domain high-pass filtering diffraction separation method. Background Art

[0002] In the exploration and development of clean hot dry rock resources, hydraulic fracturing in areas with well-developed underground faults can reduce the cost of developing hot dry rock geothermal resources and achieve better thermal conductivity than fracturing in non-faulted areas. Therefore, fault identification in hot dry rock seismic data is particularly important. Underground faults and other unique geological structures often form discontinuities in the strata. When seismic waves propagate downward through these discontinuities, the wave energy re-radiates from the discontinuity, acting like a new earthquake source. This new source generates a new disturbance that propagates in the elastic space. This disturbance is called diffraction in seismic exploration, and this phenomenon is called diffraction. The diffraction of seismic waves at faults can effectively characterize the location and morphology of faults and other unique geological structures. Therefore, diffraction waves obtained from seismic exploration are extremely valuable in identifying faults in hot dry rock.

[0003] Diffraction waves are weak signals, often submerged in the background of reflected waves. Therefore, separating and imaging them is challenging, and methodological approaches are primarily categorized into data-domain and imaging-domain methods. Data-domain methods, which are the first to be studied, involve separating diffraction waves through methods such as signal transformation before seismic data migration. Most methods exploit the geometric differences between reflected and diffracted waves in the data domain, suppressing smooth, continuous reflected waves to separate hyperbolic diffraction waves with large curvature and poor continuity. Imaging-domain methods require a migration velocity model and utilize the differences in kinematic and dynamic characteristics of reflected and diffracted waves in the imaging domain to separate diffraction waves. Patent application CN111929729A protects an imaging diffraction separation method that separates the stable image point positions of reflected waves through Gaussian model fitting. However, the plane wave destruction filter method, the most commonly used in industry, removes energy from the reflected wave while also significantly losing energy from the diffracted wave, hindering diffraction imaging.
