Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of oil and gas geophysical exploration, and in particular to a method and device for characterizing characteristics of prior information of physical property parameters. Background Art

[0002] As the exploration progresses, the exploration targets of oil and gas reservoirs become more complex and hidden, making it increasingly difficult to discover new favorable oil and gas reservoirs, increasing the cost of exploration investment and the risk of drilling. Oil and gas reservoirs often show strong reflection characteristics in seismic data, such as "bright spots". This seismic response feature may be caused by high-porosity and high-hydrocarbon saturation reservoirs with great commercial value, or it may be caused by low-porosity and low-hydrocarbon saturation reservoirs with no commercial value. Reservoir physical parameters such as porosity and hydrocarbon saturation are important bases for geologists and geophysicists to evaluate reservoirs, estimate oil and gas reserves, and determine development well locations.

[0003] Among the physical property parameter prediction methods, the probability and statistics physical property parameter inversion method has become the most popular physical property parameter prediction method in this field because it has the advantages of both deterministic and statistical inversion methods. However, the probability and statistics physical property parameter inversion method needs to rely on prior information characteristics to reduce the uncertainty in the inversion process. Therefore, the correct characterization of the prior information characteristics is particularly important and is a prerequisite for the effectiveness of the probability and statistics physical property parameter inversion method. The characterization of conventional prior information characteristics is mainly based on subjective assumptions, and the prior characteristics of the physical property parameters to be inverted are assumed to be Gaussian distribution. Gaussian distribution is a distribution with a known display expression. It only needs to count the mean and variance of the prior information, and then use the specific Gaussian distribution function to participate in the probability and statistics inversion process. Summary of the invention

[0004] The inventors have found through a large number of experiments that the prior characteristics of the actual parameters to be inverted are affected by factors such as lithology, fluid, pore structure and interpretation errors, and their distribution characteristics do not completely conform to the "single-peak" Gaussian distribution. In many cases, they are "multi-peak" and "long-tail" characteristics. Therefore, if the prior characteristics of the physical property parameters to be inverted are directly assumed to be Gaussian distribution, it will bring large errors and uncertainties to the subsequent inversion of physical property parameters. Therefore, it is particularly urgent to develop a reasonable solution for characterizing the prior information characteristics.

[0005] In order to address the shortcomings of conventional methods, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a method and device for characterizing the characteristics of prior information of physical property parameters, so as to overcome the problem that the existing prior information characterization methods assume that the prior information follows a Gaussian distribution, which does not conform to the actual situation of complex oil and gas reservoirs.

[0006] A method for characterizing a priori information characteristics of physical property parameters comprises the following steps:

[0007] The physical property parameter logging curves of the target wells in the study area are intercepted according to the preset information;

[0008] The physical property parameter logging curves of all wells in the study area are taken as the total sample set, and the characteristic parameters of the physical property parameter logging curves are analyzed in the form of histogram statistics. The characteristic parameters at least include the number of peaks, the position of each peak, the ratio of the number of samples corresponding to each peak to the total number of samples, and the dispersion degree of each peak;

[0009] Construct a prior distribution probability density function to characterize the shape of the histogram;

[0010] Using the characteristic parameter values ​​in the total sample set as the initial values ​​of the component parameters of the prior distribution probability density function;

[0012] Furthermore, the physical property parameter logging curve of the target well in the study area is intercepted according to preset information, including:

[0013] The reservoir and non-reservoir sections of all lithology-fluid types of the physical property parameter logging curves of the target wells in the study area are intercepted.

[0014] Furthermore, constructing a priori distribution probability density function includes:

[0015] Construct the prior distribution probability density function according to the following equation:

[0016]

[0017] Where x represents the value of the physical property parameter; M represents the total number of lithology-fluid types in the study area; k represents one of the lithology-fluid types in the study area; β k represents the weight of type k; μ k represents the sample mean of the physical property parameters belonging to lithology-fluid type k; γ k represents the sample variance of the physical property parameters belonging to lithology-fluid type k; π is pi.

[0018] Furthermore, the use of the characteristic parameter values ​​in the total sample set as the initial values ​​of the constituent parameters of the prior distribution probability density function includes:

[0019] The number of peaks is taken as the initial value of the number of types of lithology-fluid types, the position of each peak is taken as the initial value of the mean of the sample values ​​of each lithology-fluid physical property parameter, the ratio of the number of samples corresponding to each peak to the total number of samples is taken as the initial value of the weight of each lithology-fluid type, and the dispersion degree of each peak is taken as the initial value of the variance of the sample values ​​of each lithology-fluid physical property parameter.

[0020] Furthermore, the iterative calculation of the constituent parameters of the prior distribution probability density function and taking the constituent parameters at the time of convergence as the final constituent parameters of the prior distribution probability density function include:

[0021] Obtaining the logarithm of the prior distribution probability density function;

[0022] Calculating the probability density using the obtained initial values ​​of the constituent parameters of the prior distribution probability density function;

[0023] According to the probability density, the constituent parameters of the prior distribution probability density function are recalculated according to a preset iterative formula until the logarithm of the prior distribution probability density function converges, and the constituent parameters at the time of convergence are used as the final constituent parameters of the prior distribution probability density function.

[0024] Furthermore, the iterative calculation of the constituent parameters of the prior distribution probability density function and taking the constituent parameters at the time of convergence as the final constituent parameters of the prior distribution probability density function include:

[0025] The logarithm of the prior distribution probability density function is obtained as:

[0026]

[0027] Introducing an M-dimensional implicit variable z, the probability density is calculated using the initial values ​​of the constituent parameters of the prior distribution probability density function:

[0028]

[0029] Among them, z k (1≤k≤M) takes the value of 0 or 1, z k = 1 indicates that the distribution of the kth lithology-fluid type Select, z k =0 means not selected;

[0030] According to the probability density, the composition parameters are recalculated according to the following iterative formula:

[0035] Calculate whether lnP(x) converges. If not, re-iterate and calculate the composition parameters until convergence, and use the composition parameters at the time of convergence as the final composition parameters of the prior distribution probability density function.

[0036] The present invention also provides a physical property parameter prior information characterization device to overcome the problem that the prior information characterization method of existing physical property prior characteristics is inaccurate. The device includes a physical property parameter logging curve interception module, a physical property parameter logging curve characteristic analysis module, a prior distribution probability density function construction module, a composition parameter initial value determination module, and a physical property prior information characteristic characterization module, wherein:

[0045] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effect of the present invention is that: considering that the prior distribution of actual physical property parameters is not a "single-peak" Gaussian distribution, but a "multi-peak" and "long-tail" characteristic, the present invention constructs a new prior distribution probability density function with "multi-peak" and "long-tail" characteristics. The component parameters of the function are determined by feature statistics and iterative updates, and a method and device for characterizing the characteristics of prior information of physical property parameters are developed to obtain prior feature characterization results that are more in line with the actual distribution of physical property parameters, providing a guarantee for the accurate prediction of physical property parameters. The new prior distribution probability density function with "multi-peak" and "long-tail" characteristics constructed by the present invention can accurately describe the "non-Gaussian" phenomenon presented by the actual physical property parameters affected by factors such as lithology, fluid, pore structure, and interpretation errors. By using feature statistics as the initial value and iteratively determining the component parameters of the function, the subjective error problem caused by artificial statistical sample characteristics can be effectively avoided.

[0052] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only 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.

[0053] This embodiment provides a method for characterizing the characteristics of physical property parameter prior information, such as Figure 1 As shown, the specific steps include:

[0054] Step S101, intercepting the physical property parameter logging curve of the target well in the study area according to preset information.

[0055] If there are multiple wells in the study area, the physical parameter logging curves of the multiple wells are intercepted by preset information. The preset information interception can include reservoir and non-reservoir sections of all lithology-fluid types in the study area, such as hydrocarbon-bearing sections, aquifer sections, and mudstone sections. Because the original logging curve extends from the ground to deep underground, it is necessary to intercept the curve of the section where the research target is located, and other sections that are not of concern are invalid information.

[0056] Step S102, taking the intercepted physical property parameter logging curves of all wells in the study area as the total sample set, and analyzing the characteristic parameters of the physical property parameter logging curves in the form of histogram statistics for the total sample set, wherein the characteristic parameters include at least the number of peaks, the position of each peak, the ratio of the number of samples corresponding to each peak to the total number of samples, and the dispersion degree of each peak.

[0057] Specifically, the physical property parameter logging curves of all wells in the study area are taken as the total sample set, and the peak number, peak position and dispersion of the samples are automatically recorded. The characteristics of the physical property parameter samples in the total sample set are analyzed in the form of histogram statistics. Figure 2 The histogram statistics show that the distribution characteristics of the physical property parameters are "multi-peak" characteristics, with 2 peaks (a common statistical term, that is, there are multiple obvious protrusions in the histogram). Figure 2 The "long tail" (a common term in statistics) feature refers to the length of the samples that are far away from the "peak" end and close to 0 on the abscissa of the histogram.

[0058] Step S103, constructing a priori distribution probability density function to characterize the shape of the histogram.

[0059] Construct the prior distribution probability density function according to the following equation:

[0060]

[0061] in,

[0062] x represents the value of the physical property parameter, and the dimension depends on the specific physical property parameter that needs to be characterized;

[0063] M represents the total number of lithology-fluid types in the study area, dimensionless;

[0064] k represents one of the lithology-fluid types in the study area and is dimensionless;

[0065] β k represents the weight of type k;

[0066] μ k represents the sample mean of the physical property parameter belonging to lithology-fluid type k, and its dimension depends on the specific physical property parameter to be characterized;

[0067] γ k represents the sample variance of the physical property parameter belonging to lithology-fluid type k, dimensionless;

[0068] π is the dimensionless value of circumference.

[0069] Step S104: using the characteristic parameter values ​​in the total sample set as initial values ​​of the constituent parameters of the prior distribution probability density function.

[0070] As can be seen from step S103, the parameters of the prior distribution probability density function include: the number of lithofacies-fluid types M, the weight β of each lithofacies-fluid type k , the mean μk of each lithology-fluid property parameter sample value, the variance γ of each lithology-fluid property parameter sample value k The statistical results obtained in step S102 are used as the initial values ​​of the parameters constituting the probability density function of the prior distribution. The number of peaks is used as the initial value of the number of types of lithology-fluid types, the position of each peak is used as the initial value of the mean of the sample values ​​of each lithology-fluid property parameter, the ratio of the number of samples corresponding to each peak to the total number of samples is used as the initial value of the weight of each lithology-fluid type, and the dispersion degree of each peak is used as the initial value of the variance of the sample values ​​of each lithology-fluid property parameter.

[0071] Step S105, iteratively calculate the composition parameters of the prior distribution probability density function, use the composition parameters at the time of convergence as the final composition parameters of the prior distribution probability density function, obtain the prior distribution probability density function with a deterministic expression, and use the prior distribution probability density function with a deterministic expression to characterize the characteristics of the prior information of physical properties.

[0072] like Figure 4 As shown, this step S105 includes sub-steps S1051-S1053:

[0073] Step S1051, obtaining the logarithm of the prior distribution probability density function.

[0074]

[0075] Step S1052, calculating the probability density using the obtained initial values ​​of the constituent parameters of the prior distribution probability density function.

[0076] Introduce an M-dimensional implicit variable z, and calculate the probability density based on the initial values ​​of the parameters of the prior distribution probability density function obtained in step S104:

[0077]

[0078] Among them, z k (1≤k≤M) takes the value of 0 or 1. k =1 indicates

[0079] The distribution of the kth lithology-fluid type Selected, 0 means not selected.

[0080] Step S1053, based on the probability density, according to the preset iterative formula, recalculate the component parameters of the prior distribution probability density function until the logarithm of the prior distribution probability density function converges, and use the component parameters at the time of convergence as the final component parameters of the prior distribution probability density function.

[0081] According to P(z k |x), recalculate the composition parameters according to the following iterative formula:

[0082]

[0083]

[0084]

[0085] in,

[0086] N represents the total sample size.

[0087] N k represents the number of samples belonging to lithology-fluid type k.

[0088] Calculate whether lnP(x) converges. If not, re-iterate and calculate the composition parameters until convergence, and use the composition parameters at the time of convergence as the final composition parameters of the prior distribution probability density function.

[0089] This step uses the maximum likelihood solution theory to fit the unknown parameters in the known expression, takes the composition parameters at the time of convergence as the final composition parameters of the prior distribution probability density function, and brings the final composition parameters into the prior distribution probability density function to obtain a prior distribution probability density function with a deterministic expression.

[0090] The inventors have found through a large number of experiments that the prior distribution characteristics of physical property parameters are the "multi-peak" and "long-tail" shapes shown in the histogram. The present invention intends to construct a function that can fit this shape through mathematical theoretical experiments. The shape of this function is consistent with the shape of the histogram and can "wrap" the histogram characteristics, indicating that it accurately characterizes the shape of the histogram. The inventors conducted experiments using gas saturation in physical property parameters as an example. The distribution function obtained in the experiment is as follows: Figure 3 As shown by the grey dotted line in , it can be seen that the distribution function can accurately characterize the "multi-peak" and "long-tail" characteristics of the physical property parameters. The prior distribution probability density function constructed by the present invention is different from any previously known distribution function.

[0091] In practical applications, the prior distribution probability density function with a deterministic expression can be used as a function to characterize the prior information of physical property parameters, and can be involved in conventional probability statistics physical property parameter inversion methods to obtain physical property parameter inversion results as a basis for favorable oil and gas reservoir prediction.

[0092] Based on a large number of experiments, the present invention found that the prior distribution of physical property parameters is not a "single-peak" Gaussian distribution, but a "multi-peak" and "long-tail" characteristic, so a new prior distribution probability density function with "multi-peak" and "long-tail" characteristics is constructed. The component parameters of the function are determined by characteristic statistics and iterative updates, and a prior distribution probability density function with a deterministic expression is obtained. The prior distribution probability density function conforms to the actual distribution of physical property parameters and provides a guarantee for the accurate prediction of physical property parameters. The new prior distribution probability density function with "multi-peak" and "long-tail" characteristics constructed by the present invention can accurately describe the "non-Gaussian" phenomenon presented by the actual physical property parameters affected by factors such as lithology, fluid, pore structure, and interpretation errors. Using characteristic statistics as the initial value and iteratively determining the component parameters of the function can effectively avoid the subjective error problem caused by artificial statistical sample characteristics.

[0093] On the other hand, the embodiment of the present invention also provides a physical property parameter prior information feature characterization device, the structure of the device is as follows Figure 5 As shown, it includes: a physical property parameter logging curve interception module 10, a physical property parameter logging curve feature analysis module 20, a prior distribution probability density function construction module 30, a composition parameter initial value determination module 40, and a physical property prior information feature characterization module 50, wherein:

[0094] The physical property parameter logging curve interception module 10 is used to intercept the physical property parameter logging curve of the target well in the study area according to preset information.

[0095] If there are multiple wells in the study area, the physical parameter logging curves of the multiple wells are intercepted by preset information. The preset information interception can include reservoir and non-reservoir sections of all lithology-fluid types in the study area, such as hydrocarbon-bearing sections, aquifer sections, and mudstone sections. Because the original logging curve extends from the ground to deep underground, it is necessary to intercept the curve of the section where the research target is located, and other sections that are not of concern are invalid information.

[0096] The physical property parameter logging curve characteristic analysis module 20 is used to take the physical property parameter logging curves of all wells in the study area as the total sample set, and analyze the characteristic parameters of the physical property parameter logging curves in the form of histogram statistics for the total sample set. The characteristic parameters at least include the number of peaks, the position of each peak, the ratio of the number of samples corresponding to each peak to the total number of samples, and the dispersion degree of each peak.

[0097] Specifically, the physical property parameter logging curves of all wells in the study area are taken as the total sample set, and the peak number, peak position and dispersion of the samples are automatically recorded. The characteristics of the physical property parameter samples in the total sample set are analyzed in the form of histogram statistics.

[0098] The prior distribution probability density function construction module 30 is used to construct a prior distribution probability density function to characterize the shape of the histogram.

[0099] Construct the prior distribution probability density function according to the following equation:

[0100]

[0101] in,

[0102] x represents the value of the physical property parameter, and the dimension depends on the specific physical property parameter that needs to be characterized;

[0103] M represents the total number of lithology-fluid types in the study area, dimensionless;

[0104] k represents one of the lithology-fluid types in the study area and is dimensionless;

[0105] β k represents the weight of type k;

[0106] μ k represents the sample mean of the physical property parameter belonging to lithology-fluid type k, and its dimension depends on the specific physical property parameter to be characterized;

[0107] γ k represents the sample variance of the physical property parameter belonging to lithology-fluid type k, dimensionless;

[0108] π is the dimensionless value of circumference.

[0109] The inventors have found through a large number of experiments that the prior distribution characteristics of physical property parameters are the "multi-peak" and "long-tail" forms shown in the histogram. The present invention intends to construct a function that can fit this form through mathematical theoretical experiments. The form of this function is consistent with the form of the histogram. Figure 3 We can see that the distribution of this function ( Figure 3 The gray dashed line in the middle can "enclose" the histogram feature, indicating that the shape of the histogram is accurately characterized. The prior distribution probability density function constructed by the present invention is different from any previously known distribution function.

[0110] The component parameter initial value determination module 40 is used to use the characteristic parameter values ​​in the total sample set as the component parameter initial values ​​of the prior distribution probability density function.

[0111] The statistical results obtained by the physical property parameter logging curve characteristic analysis module 20 are used as the initial values ​​of the parameters of the prior distribution probability density function. Among them, the number of peaks is used as the initial value of the number of types of lithofacies-fluid types, and the positions of each peak are used as the mean μ of the sample values ​​of each lithofacies-fluid physical property parameter. k The initial value and each peak position are used as the variance γ of the sample values ​​of each lithology-fluid physical property parameter k Initial value.

[0112] The physical property prior information feature characterization module 50 is used to iteratively calculate the composition parameters of the prior distribution probability density function, use the composition parameters at the time of convergence as the final composition parameters of the prior distribution probability density function, obtain the prior distribution probability density function with a deterministic expression, and use the prior distribution probability density function with a deterministic expression to characterize the physical property prior information characteristics.

[0113] Specifically, taking the logarithm of the prior distribution probability density function, we get:

[0114]

[0115] Introduce an M-dimensional implicit variable z, and calculate the probability density based on the initial values ​​of the parameters of the prior distribution probability density function obtained in step S104:

[0116]

[0117] Among them, z k (1≤k≤M) takes the value of 0 or 1. k = 1 indicates that the distribution of the kth lithology-fluid type Select, z k =0 means no selection. Count the number of selected items N k, represents the number of samples belonging to lithofacies-fluid type k.

[0118] According to P(z k |x), recalculate the composition parameters according to the following iterative formula:

[0119]

[0120]

[0121]

[0122] in,

[0123] N represents the total sample size.

[0124] N k represents the number of samples belonging to lithology-fluid type k.

[0125] Calculate whether lnP(x) converges. If not, re-iterate and calculate the composition parameters until convergence, and use the composition parameters at the time of convergence as the final composition parameters of the prior distribution probability density function.

[0126] This step uses the maximum likelihood solution theory to fit the unknown parameters in the known expression, takes the composition parameters at the time of convergence as the final composition parameters of the prior distribution probability density function, and brings the final composition parameters into the prior distribution probability density function to obtain a prior distribution probability density function with a deterministic expression.

[0127] Based on a large number of experiments, the present invention found that the prior distribution of physical property parameters is not a "single-peak" Gaussian distribution, but a "multi-peak" and "long-tail" characteristic, so a new prior distribution probability density function with "multi-peak" and "long-tail" characteristics is constructed. The component parameters of the function are determined by characteristic statistics and iterative updates, and a prior distribution probability density function with a deterministic expression is obtained. The prior distribution probability density function conforms to the actual distribution of physical property parameters and provides a guarantee for the accurate prediction of physical property parameters. The new prior distribution probability density function with "multi-peak" and "long-tail" characteristics constructed by the present invention can accurately describe the "non-Gaussian" phenomenon presented by the actual physical property parameters affected by factors such as lithology, fluid, pore structure, and interpretation errors. Using characteristic statistics as the initial value and iteratively determining the component parameters of the function can effectively avoid the subjective error problem caused by artificial statistical sample characteristics.

[0128] The present invention also provides a computer device, including a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, wherein the processor implements the above-mentioned method for characterizing prior information of physical property parameters when executing the computer program.

[0129] The present invention also provides a computer-readable storage medium, wherein the computer-readable storage medium stores a computer program for executing the above-mentioned method for characterizing prior information of gas physical property parameters.

[0130] The present invention also provides a method for predicting oil and gas reservoirs, which uses the prior distribution probability density function with a deterministic expression obtained by the above method as a function to characterize the prior information of physical property parameters, participates in the probability statistics type physical property parameter inversion, and obtains the physical property parameter inversion result to predict oil and gas reservoirs.
