Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of exploration data processing, and relates to a method for suppressing multiple waves, in particular to a method for adaptively reducing multiple waves based on primary wave protection. Background Art
[0002] Multiples are a common type of interfering wave in seismic exploration. Their presence can distort the amplitude, frequency, and phase of effective reflections, significantly impacting the identification of the true attributes of the effective waves. Therefore, suppressing multiples is a critical step in processing seismic exploration data. Currently, there are two main methods for suppressing multiples: mathematical transformation algorithms based on the time difference between the primary and multiple waves, and adaptive subtraction algorithms. However, in actual data processing, the first method often proves ineffective due to the small time difference between the primary and multiple waves.
[0003] While the second method offers a wide variety of adaptive subtraction algorithms, such as pattern recognition adaptive subtraction and curvelet transform adaptive subtraction, each with its own specific application scenarios, their optimal application relies on two assumptions: orthogonality between significant waves and multiples, and wavelet consistency. When these assumptions are not met, the adaptive subtraction algorithm can suffer from undermatching or overmatching. These issues can lead to residual multiples or damage to the primary during the adaptive subtraction process. In particular, when the multiples and primary events intersect or nearly overlap, conventional adaptive subtraction algorithms struggle to protect the primary when suppressing the multiples. Summary of the Invention

By establishing a multiple wave model and primary wave prior information, performing mathematical processing, and utilizing the least squares method, the purpose of suppressing multiple waves by using the method for adaptively reducing multiple waves while protecting the primary wave is achieved.

[0017] S5. Establishing the objective function
[0018] For each offset vector slice data domain, in the sense of least squares, establish the objective function J(A) = argmin||Y-AX||+λA T A;
[0019] Where X = [X1, X'2], which represents the matrix composed of the primary wave prior information X1 and the multiple wave model X'2;
[0020] A=[A1,A2], where A1 represents the adaptive matching operator of the primary wave prior information X1, A2 represents the adaptive matching operator of the multiple wave model X'2, and A is the total adaptive matching operator;

[0022] S6. Solve the objective function and suppress the multiple waves to obtain the seismic data after suppressing the multiple waves.
[0023] As a limitation of the present invention, in step S3, the predicted multiple wave model is There are m2 layers in total, written in matrix form, we get the multiple wave model X2;
[0024] The post-NMO multiple wave model X'2 is obtained by performing NMO processing and offset vector slice data domain sorting processing on the multiple wave model X2 to generate a seismic profile with common offset and common azimuth.
[0025] Among them, in step S5, the mathematically processed prior information is incorporated into the adaptive subtraction algorithm to achieve the purpose of protecting the primary wave.
[0026] As another limitation of the present invention, in step S6, the objective function is solved to obtain the total adaptive matching operator A and the matched multiple waves A2X2.
[0027] As a third limitation of the present invention, in step S6, the multiple wave suppression is performed by using the formula Y-fA2X'2 to obtain the seismic data after subtracting the multiple waves and then performing a reaction correction process to obtain the seismic data after suppressing the multiple waves.
[0028] As a fourth limitation of the present invention, the VSP corridor superimposed profile is obtained by processing VSP data.
[0029] As a fifth limitation of the present invention, the stacked section without multiple wavefronts is obtained by interpreting the primary wave velocity based on the acoustic logging velocity as a reference value and in combination with geological knowledge.
[0030] As a further limitation of the present invention, the geological knowledge includes acoustic wave velocity, lithology and structural information.
[0031] Due to the adoption of the above solution, the present invention has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art:
[0032] The present invention uses prior information for adaptive subtraction to effectively protect the primary wave, while the conventional method in the industry does not use the prior information of the primary wave, but directly uses the original data and the predicted multiple wave model for adaptive subtraction, which is easy to damage the effective primary wave.
[0033] The present invention establishes a priori information of the primary wave, performs mathematical processing, and utilizes the improved least squares method to overcome the problems of insufficient matching and overmatching during adaptive matching, thereby making the adaptive subtraction process more fidelity. While protecting the primary wave, the multiple waves can be effectively suppressed by using the adaptive subtraction method of the multiple waves.

[0051] In a field seismic survey, seismic data are obtained. In the seismic profile, multiple waves are intermittent high-frequency phase axes. Before suppressing the multiple waves, such as Figure 1 ,Affected by the multiple waves, the primary wave is seriously interfered by the multiple waves. If the multiple waves are suppressed by the conventional adaptive subtraction process, the primary wave event axis is easily damaged. Focus on the primary earthquake wave in the white box to observe whether the adaptive subtraction causes damage to the primary wave.
[0052] This embodiment is a method for adaptively reducing multiple waves based on primary wave protection. This method effectively suppresses high-frequency multiple waves while protecting the primary wave in seismic profile data.
[0053] (1) The specific method of this embodiment is as follows:

[0077] in, Figure 3 It is shown that conventional adaptive subtraction processing causes serious damage to the primary wave, e.g. Figure 1 The white box selects the area affected by multiple waves. Figure 3 The primary wave is severely damaged in the corresponding area, and the method of the present invention obtains Figure 2 The results show that compared with conventional adaptive subtraction processing, the present invention has a better primary wave protection effect when suppressing high-frequency multiple waves in seismic profile data processing.

[0102] in, Figure 8 The circle marks the intersection of the multiple waves and the primary wave. Conventional adaptive subtraction changes the amplitude characteristics of the primary wave, while the method of this verification experiment Figure 7 The results demonstrated that the primary wave amplitude characteristics are effectively maintained. The results show that, compared to conventional adaptive subtraction processing, the objective function containing prior information in the method of the present invention can effectively suppress multiple waves in the case of a crossover of multiple and primary events, demonstrating that the present invention has a good primary wave protection effect.
