Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of oil and gas field exploration and development, and in particular to a method for judging the core of an ancient buried hill based on the volatility of rock mechanics structure. Background Art
[0002] The formation of geological "sweet spots" in oil and gas reservoirs must meet certain structural conditions. Paleomorphology has a significant control effect on the distribution of high-quality reservoirs and the sedimentary system of oil and gas basins. High-quality reservoirs are usually developed in the core of ancient buried hills. Current research mostly relies on the residual thickness method and backstripping method. The recovery results are basically the paleogeomorphological characteristics of a specific stratum or a specific period. Moreover, the results are difficult to quantitatively study the paleogeomorphological characteristics, and the steps are cumbersome and have great inaccuracy. Therefore, how to quickly and accurately determine the core of the ancient buried hill is a practical problem faced in oil and gas geology. The patent of this invention proposes a method for determining the core of the ancient buried hill based on the volatility of rock mechanical structure. The identification results are accurate and can effectively guide the evaluation of the geological "sweet spots" of buried hill reservoirs. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The technical solution of the present invention is: a method for determining the core of an ancient buried hill based on the volatility of rock mechanical structure, the specific steps are as follows:
[0005] S1 high-precision geological geometry modeling determines the current structural morphology based on well logging data, mud logging data, pre-stack seismic data and geological data. After multiple modifications and adjustments, a high-precision geological geometry model is established. The high-precision geological geometry model is a model constructed based on the fault model and the top and internal interface models of the work area. The fault model is established based on the fault plane obtained by seismic data interpretation, and the top and internal interfaces are fitted based on the top and internal interfaces of the work area obtained by structural interpretation. The grid unit size of the high-precision geological model is 1-8 meters.
[0006] The S2 pre-stack data drives the inversion initial model. Based on the pre-stack seismic data and geological stratification data, the initial model is established. The P-wave and S-wave reflectivity terms and density reflectivity terms corresponding to the initial model are obtained according to the Aki-Richards approximate equation. The obtained reflectivity terms are convolved with the wavelets extracted from the work area to obtain a synthetic artificial data set. The residual is obtained by comparing it with the actual data set, and the initial model is modified according to the residual multiple times to finally obtain the initial model. The initial model includes a P-wave velocity model, a S-wave velocity model, and a density model. The Aki-Richards approximate equation is:
[0007]
[0008] In formula (1), R PPθ is the reflection coefficient of the synthetic seismic record, dimensionless; θ is the incident angle, °; R P is the longitudinal wave velocity reflectivity term, dimensionless; R S is the shear wave velocity reflectivity term, dimensionless; R D is the density reflectivity term, dimensionless; V P is the longitudinal wave velocity, m / μs; V S is the shear wave velocity, m / μs.
[0009] S3 Inversion of the current dynamic rock mechanics parameter three-dimensional distribution data body, substitute the P-wave velocity model, S-wave velocity model, and density model into the rock mechanics parameter calculation formula, calculate the dynamic rock mechanics parameters, and invert the current dynamic rock mechanics parameter three-dimensional distribution data body; the rock mechanics parameter calculation formula is:
[0010]
[0011] In formulas (2)-(3), E d is the dynamic Young's modulus of rock, GPa; μ d is the dynamic Poisson's ratio of rock, dimensionless; ρ b is the density model, g / cm 3 ;Δt p is the longitudinal wave velocity model, μs / m; Δt s is the shear wave velocity model, μs / m.
[0012] S4 converts the current static rock mechanics parameter three-dimensional distribution data body, conducts rock triaxial mechanics experiments under the in-situ stress environment of underground rocks, tests the corresponding static rock mechanics parameters, determines the rock mechanics parameter static-dynamic conversion model, substitutes the determined rock mechanics parameter static-dynamic conversion model into the current dynamic rock mechanics parameter three-dimensional distribution data body, and establishes the current static rock mechanics parameter three-dimensional distribution data body; the rock mechanics parameter dynamic-static conversion model is: conduct intersection analysis on the dynamic rock mechanics parameters and the static rock mechanics parameters, and establish a numerical relationship between the two.
[0013] S5 calculates the spatial fluctuation of rock mechanical structure, reading the average value of rock mechanical parameters in each longitudinal grid unit and calculating the spatial fluctuation of rock mechanical structure of the longitudinal grid unit; the calculation of the spatial fluctuation of rock mechanical structure of the longitudinal grid unit is:
[0014]
[0015] In formulas (4)-(5), is the average value of rock mechanics parameters, N iis the rock mechanical parameter within each grid unit, m is the number of grid units in the vertical direction, dimensionless; σ is the spatial volatility of the rock mechanical structure of the vertical grid unit.
[0016] S6 Determination of the scale of development of structural fractures: Determine the scale of development of structural fractures at different structural positions on the plane based on the spatial volatility of the rock mechanical structure of the longitudinal grid unit; the scale of development of structural fractures is: divided into microscale, small scale, medium scale and large scale structural fractures according to the difference in rock mechanical structure volatility. When the rock mechanical volatility is between 0 and 300, it is the area of development of microscale structural fractures; when the rock mechanical volatility is between 300 and 500, it is the area of development of small scale structural fractures; when the rock mechanical volatility is between 500 and 800, it is the area of development of medium scale structural fractures; when the rock mechanical volatility is between 800 and 1000, it is the area of development of large scale structural fractures.
[0017] The core of the S7 buried hill was determined based on the scale of structural fracture development at different structural positions on the plane. The area with large structural fracture scale and low density was the core of the buried hill, while the area with small structural fracture scale and high density was the low area of the ancient structure.
[0018] The beneficial effects of the present invention are: through high-precision geological geometric modeling, combined with pre-stack data and in-situ rock mechanics experiments to obtain the three-dimensional distribution data body of current static rock mechanics parameters, the rock mechanics structure fluctuations in different structural parts are calculated, the volatility of the rock mechanics structure is clarified, and the development scales of structural fractures in different structural parts are identified. Through the development scales of structural fractures in different structural parts, the core of the ancient buried hill can be judged.
[0019] The present invention proposes a method for determining the core of an ancient buried hill based on the volatility of rock mechanical structure. The method has high practical value, low judgment cost, strong operability, and can greatly reduce manpower and financial expenditures. The judgment results have certain reference significance for many aspects, such as the inversion of ancient and modern rock mechanical parameters, the prediction of structural fracture distribution, and the evaluation of "geological sweet spots".
