[0032] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this specification, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this specification will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of this specification. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them.

[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 A schematic flow chart of a method for reverse time migration imaging of anisotropic media on an undulating surface provided in an embodiment of the present specification.

[0034] Figure 1 The process in may include the following steps:

[0035] S102: Determine body-fitting grid coordinates.

[0036] Specifically, the body-fitting grid coordinates can be calculated using the following equations.

[0037]

[0038] Where (x, y) is the grid coordinate value of the physical domain, (ξ, η) is the grid coordinate value of the computational domain, and ξ xx ,ξ yy ,ηxx ,η yy It represents the second-order partial derivatives of ξ and η with respect to x and y. P and Q are source terms. By obtaining the source terms, the trend of the grid can be controlled, thereby directly controlling the quality of grid generation.

[0039] S104, inputting the body-fitting grid coordinates, migration velocity field, anisotropic parameter field, seismic shot records and adjusting relevant imaging parameters.

[0040] The relevant imaging parameters include the number of grid points nx, nz of the model, the spatial sampling interval dx, dz of the model, the time sampling interval dt, the maximum recording time tmax, the number of excitation shots ns, the shot spacing ds, the number of receiving channels ng, the channel spacing dg, and the main frequency f of the source wavelet.

[0041] S106, using the following wave equation to extend along the time forward propagation direction to obtain the forward propagation wave field of the shot point.

[0042]

[0043] Among them, u, w are the vibration velocities of the particle, p, q are the horizontal and vertical components of stress, ρ is the medium density, ε, δ are the anisotropy parameters, V p is the medium velocity. When extended in different directions, the q component can characterize the forward wave field and the reverse wave field of the image respectively;

[0044] The vertical component q of stress is used as the forward wave field and the reverse wave field in the imaging process. The coordinate conversion coefficient in the above equation is It can be solved by the following equation.

[0045]

[0046] where J is the Jacobian determinant and its value cannot be zero.

[0047] S108, using the wave equation to extend along the time reverse propagation direction to obtain the reverse propagation wave field of the detection point.

[0048] The wave equations used to calculate the forward and reverse wave fields are the same, except that the time propagation directions are opposite.

[0049] S110, performing cross-correlation imaging on the forward wave field and the reverse wave field at the same time to obtain a reverse time migration imaging result.

[0050] By introducing a normalization processing method, the amplitude of the imaging result obtained under the cross-correlation imaging condition is improved, and the influence of the source or the detection point is eliminated, so as to obtain an imaging result closer to the actual formation reflection coefficient. The source normalized cross-correlation imaging condition proposed by Kaelin and Guitton is adopted, and the specific expression is as follows:

[0051]

[0052] Among them, Image(x,z) is the imaging result, Indicates the superposition of the cross-correlation results of all guns. Indicates the superposition of the cross-correlation results at all times, S s (x,z,t) represents the forward wave field at time t, R s (x,z,t) The back propagation wave field at time t.

[0053] The method comprises the following steps: determining body-fitting grid coordinates; inputting the body-fitting grid coordinates, migration velocity field, anisotropic parameter field, seismic shot records and adjusting relevant imaging parameters; using the wave equation to extend along the forward propagation direction of time to obtain the forward wave field of the shot point; using the wave equation to extend in the reverse propagation direction of time to obtain the reverse wave field of the detection point; performing cross-correlation imaging on the forward wave field and the reverse wave field at the same time to obtain the reverse time migration imaging result, thereby eliminating the influence of the undulating surface and obtaining a higher resolution and more accurate imaging result.

[0054] In order to explain the method of the present invention in more detail, the applicant also conducted the following specific experiments to provide the actual application effect of the present invention in the modified Hess model.

[0055] Figure 2 This is the generated body-fitting mesh. It can be seen that the generated body-fitting mesh adapts well to the undulating surface, has good orthogonality near the surface, and has good smoothness inside the mesh.

[0056] The model has an undulating surface and strong anisotropy. Input migration velocity field (such as Figure 3 As shown), anisotropy parameter ε (as shown Figure 4 As shown in), anisotropy parameter δ (as shown in Figure 5 and establish a corresponding observation system.

[0057] Based on the above parameters, the acoustic wave equation of anisotropic medium with undulating surface is simulated forward, and the seismic wave field snapshot is obtained (such as Figure 6 as shown) and single shot records (as shown Figure 7 As shown in the figure). It can be seen from the wave field snapshot that there are no false scattered waves near the undulating surface and there is no dispersion phenomenon in the wave field, which shows that the forward simulation method of the present invention can eliminate the influence of the undulating surface and obtain correct numerical simulation results, which is a prerequisite for subsequent accurate imaging. It can be found from the single shot record that the reflected wave event axis is distorted to varying degrees due to the influence of the undulating surface. If this influence is ignored in the subsequent imaging process, accurate results cannot be obtained.

[0058] The forward wave field at each moment is obtained by forward modeling the acoustic wave equation of anisotropic media on the undulating surface, and then the reverse wave field at each moment is obtained by reverse time propagation. Finally, imaging is performed using the cross-correlation imaging condition to obtain the reverse time migration imaging section. Figure 8 It is a conventional technique of acoustic isotropic reverse time migration imaging. Fig. 9 It is the reverse time migration imaging result of the anisotropic medium on the undulating surface of the present invention.

[0059] Compared with the acoustic isotropic reverse time migration results of conventional technology, the reflection wave event axis near the salt dome boundary in the imaging section of this application can be correctly reset, such as Figure 8 and Fig. 9 As shown in the box. In addition, the diffraction waves at the fault position in the imaging section of the present application converge, the fault section is clear, and the resolution is higher, such as Figure 8 and Fig. 9 Shown in the oval box.

[0060] In summary, the reverse time migration imaging method for anisotropic media with undulating surfaces proposed in the present invention can eliminate the influence of undulating surfaces, accurately simulate the propagation law of seismic waves in underground media, achieve high-precision and high-resolution imaging of underground structures, and provide a basic guarantee for the subsequent accurate interpretation of complex geological structures.

[0061] Correspondingly, an embodiment of the present application also provides a computer device, including a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, wherein when the processor executes the program, the aforementioned anisotropic medium reverse time migration imaging method for an undulating surface is implemented.

[0062] Each embodiment in this specification is described in a progressive manner, and the same or similar parts between the embodiments can be referred to each other, and each embodiment focuses on the differences from other embodiments. In particular, for the device, equipment and medium embodiments, since they are basically similar to the method embodiments, the description is relatively simple, and the relevant parts can be referred to the partial description of the method embodiments, and will not be repeated here.
