Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of oil and gas geophysical exploration, and in particular relates to a horizontal well constrained seismic inversion method and system. Background Art
[0002] With the advancement of exploration, the exploration targets of oil and gas reservoirs are more complex and hidden, which makes it increasingly difficult to discover new favorable oil and gas reservoirs, and the exploration investment cost becomes higher and the drilling risk increases. In the exploration and development of oil and gas fields, horizontal wells can increase the length of the target layer, increase the oil leakage area, and increase the oil and gas production several times. It is a drilling mode that has been gradually promoted in recent years. Compared with traditional vertical well data, horizontal well data has lateral extension information and can provide high-resolution logging information of lateral changes of reservoirs at a certain distance. In the conventional seismic inversion process, the high-resolution advantage of vertical well logging data in the vertical direction is generally used to constrain the seismic inversion process and improve the vertical resolution of seismic. However, in terms of the current status of the use of horizontal well data, the horizontal section logging data of horizontal wells is difficult to be used in the seismic inversion process. The main reason is that the horizontal section logging data is not perpendicular to the ground, spans multiple seismic traces, and is difficult to combine with seismic data. Therefore, in order to make full use of the lateral resolution advantage of horizontal well data, it is particularly urgent to develop an effective horizontal well constrained seismic inversion solution.

[0046] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0047] A horizontal well constrained seismic inversion method, such as Figure 1 As shown, the following steps are included:
[0048] S1: intercept the horizontal section logging curve;
[0049] S2: resample the track spacing of the intercepted horizontal section logging curve;
[0050] S3: number the sample points of the resampled logging curve to construct a horizontal segment data set;
[0051] S4: construct the target inversion function based on the horizontal segment data set;
[0052] S5: Substitute the post-stack seismic data set into the target inversion function to obtain the wave impedance prediction value corresponding to each seismic data.
[0053] like Figure 2 As shown in FIG. 1 , the wave impedance profile obtained by inversion under the constraint of horizontal wells. It can be seen that the inversion result has obvious changes in the lateral direction, which clearly reflects the lateral change characteristics of the wave impedance of the target layer (dashed box).
[0054] Furthermore, in step S1, the horizontal section logging curve to be involved in the seismic inversion is intercepted, and the horizontal section logging curve satisfies that the length of the logging curve of the target geological body encountered is more than 1 times the length of the logging curve of the non-target geological body.
[0055] It should be noted that in step S1, the horizontal well data (horizontal section logging curve) to be involved in the seismic inversion needs to be intercepted according to the quality of the horizontal section acoustic wave and density logging curve.
[0056] Furthermore, in step S2, the following steps are included:
[0057] S201: resample the horizontal section logging curve at every other track spacing to obtain logging curve sample points with equal track spacing.
[0058] It should be noted that, before step S201, the distance between traces of the seismic acquisition observation system is required.
[0059] Furthermore, in step S3, the following steps are included:
[0060] S301: number the resampling points in sequence from the well point to the end of the horizontal section, and record them as 1, 2, 3...N; S302: for multiple horizontal wells, the numbers are accumulated in sequence according to the distance of the well distribution to construct a horizontal section data set.
[0061] It should be noted that in step S301 to step S302, the well point is the position of the wellhead on the ground, and the direction from the well point to the end of the horizontal section can be referred to as Figure 2 Curve A in the figure starts from the well point and extends from the ground to the horizontal direction. In addition, the distance of well distribution is that there is a certain distance between the wellheads of multiple wells on the plane, and the first well counted is used as a reference. Generally, the key well in the study area is selected as the first well for statistical numbering, and then the nearest well is selected for the next numbering, and the numbers are numbered from near to far in sequence. The present invention does not limit how to select the first well.
[0062] Furthermore, the target inversion function is:
[0063]
[0064] In the formula, g ij Represents a post-stack seismic dataset The amplitude value of the jth sample point of the i-th channel data in Z is dimensionless; ij Represents a post-stack seismic dataset The wave impedance value prediction corresponding to the jth sample point of the i-th data is m / s*kg / m3; k represents the number of seismic data channels selected for inversion; m represents the number of sample points in each data channel; q represents the number of horizontal sample points involved in constraint control; d(g) represents the derivative operation; w represents the seismic wavelet, extracted through conventional statistics, dimensionless; Z p Represents a horizontal segment dataset ¢ The wave impedance earthquake prediction value of the p-th horizontal sample point in, m / s*kg / m3; Zc p It represents the wave impedance logging value of the pth horizontal sample point in the horizontal segment data set ¢ (obtained by multiplying the acoustic logging and the density logging), m / s*kg / m3; β represents the constraint control coefficient, dimensionless; γ represents the variance of the wave impedance of the horizontal segment data set.
[0065] It should be noted that when the selected seismic trace to be inverted contains horizontal well sample points, the pth horizontal sample point is the sample point contained in the seismic trace to be inverted, the constraint control coefficient β=1, and the horizontal segment sample point plays a constraint role. When the selected seismic trace to be inverted does not contain horizontal well sample points, the constraint control coefficient β=0, and the horizontal segment sample point does not play a constraint role. In addition, the number of horizontal sample points q participating in the constraint control depends on the number of horizontal well sample points contained in the seismic trace to be inverted, which is less than or equal to the number of seismic traces selected to be inverted, that is, q≤k.
[0066] Furthermore, in step S5, the following steps are included:
[0067] S501: According to the order of seismic data access, k seismic data are selected in sequence and substituted into the target inversion function; S502: The target inversion function is optimized by maximum likelihood estimation to obtain the wave impedance prediction value corresponding to each seismic data.
[0068] It should be noted that in step S5, the impedance logging interpolation model is obtained by interpolating the entire vertical well section of the study area using the impedance curve (obtained by multiplying the acoustic logging and the density logging) as the initial estimation model for maximum likelihood estimation.

[0070] Furthermore, the interception unit includes an interception module; the interception module is used to intercept the horizontal section logging curve to be involved in seismic inversion, and the intercepted horizontal section logging curve satisfies that the length of the logging curve of the target geological body encountered is more than 1 times the length of the logging curve of the non-target geological body.
[0071] Furthermore, the resampling unit includes a resampling module, which is used to resample the horizontal section logging curve at every other track spacing to obtain logging curve sample points with equal track spacing.
[0072] Furthermore, the numbering unit includes a numbering module and an accumulation module. The numbering module is used to number the resampling points in sequence according to the direction from the well point to the end of the horizontal section, recorded as 1, 2, 3...N; the accumulation module is used to accumulate the numbers of multiple horizontal wells in sequence according to the distance of the well distribution to construct a horizontal section data set.

[0074] It should be noted that, for the system embodiment, since it basically corresponds to the method embodiment, the relevant parts can refer to the partial description of the method embodiment. The various units and modules of the horizontal well constrained seismic inversion system are only divided according to functional logic, but are not limited to the above division, as long as the corresponding functions can be achieved; in addition, the specific names of the units are only for the convenience of distinguishing each other, and are not used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0075] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that they can still modify the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments, or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features therein; and these modifications or substitutions do not make the essence of the corresponding technical solutions deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
