Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of petroleum geophysical exploration, and in particular to a method and a device for calculating five-dimensional P-wave travel time of arbitrary anisotropic medium in an OVT domain. Background Art

[0002] For oil and gas exploration, as geological targets become increasingly complex, the requirements for seismic exploration continue to increase, and wide-azimuth seismic exploration has become one of the mainstream technical development directions. Compared with narrow-azimuth seismic exploration, wide-azimuth seismic exploration has a wider acquisition illumination, a more complete seismic wave field, and higher data signal-to-noise ratio, resolution, and fidelity. Therefore, it has great advantages in identifying faults, fractures, stratum lithology and fluids, and steep-angle imaging. At present, wide-azimuth seismic exploration has been widely used in complex high-steep structures, carbonate fractures and caves, lithologic oil and gas reservoir imaging, and fracture prediction.

[0003] With the promotion of wide-azimuth seismic exploration, wide-azimuth seismic data processing technologies represented by offset vector tile (OVT) processing technology have also developed rapidly. The main feature of these technologies is to establish and process five-dimensional seismic gathers containing both offset and azimuth information in units of "slices". Since wide-azimuth seismic data have richer azimuth information, wide-azimuth seismic interpretation technology is often based on anisotropy analysis, which identifies the anisotropic properties of the reservoir by analyzing the azimuth differences of seismic attributes such as travel time, velocity, amplitude, and frequency of seismic waves.

[0004] The azimuthal anisotropy of strata can be divided into horizontal transverse isotropy (HTI) medium, orthogonal anisotropy (OrthorhombicAnisotropy) medium, monoclinic anisotropy (Monoclinic) medium, and triclinic anisotropy (Triclinic) medium according to its symmetry from simple to complex. Triclinic anisotropy medium has no symmetry plane and symmetry axis, representing the most complex case of anisotropy, which can also be called arbitrary anisotropy. The study of seismic wave attributes of arbitrary anisotropic media is currently limited to the theoretical scope, such as the approximation and inversion of its travel time in a simple observation system, and its application in practical processing is still blank. Summary of the invention

[0053] 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 those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0054] Embodiment 1:

[0055] According to an embodiment of the present invention, an embodiment of a method for calculating five-dimensional P-wave travel time in an arbitrary anisotropic medium in an OVT domain is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart of the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer executable instructions, and although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described may be executed in an order different from that shown here.

[0056] In this embodiment, a method for calculating the five-dimensional P-wave travel time of arbitrary anisotropic media in an OVT domain is provided. Figure 1 is a flow chart of a method for calculating five-dimensional P-wave travel time of arbitrary anisotropic medium in OVT domain according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the process includes the following steps:

[0057] Step S101, set the global coordinate system of the formation and establish a cross-arranged orthogonal observation system, determine the offset vector slice domain in the orthogonal observation system, the offset vector slice domain includes multiple offset vector slices (OVT slices), each vector slice corresponds to an offset and an azimuth.

[0058] In an optional embodiment, a Cartesian coordinate system is assumed as the global coordinate system, in which the x3 axis is in the vertical direction, and the x1 and x2 axes are in the horizontal direction and are orthogonal to each other; the background medium is a uniform stratum, and the horizontal reflection surface at the bottom of the stratum is parallel to the (x1, x2) plane.

[0059] like Figure 2 As shown, in the cross-arranged orthogonal observation system, the detection lines are distributed in parallel along the x1 direction, and the source points are excited in sequence according to the shot lines distributed along the x2 axis direction. The combination of a shot line and a detection line is a cross subset in the cross arrangement.

[0060] In a single cross subset, seismic traces whose shot points and receiver points have a fixed center range can be combined into an OVT slice. Each OVT slice represents an offset and azimuth within a certain range. Figure 3The same OVT slices in different cross subsets form an OVT domain. Each OVT domain is a single coverage profile within the work area, and a single OVT slice represents a specific position in the OVT domain.

[0061] Step S102, dividing the offset vector slice domain in the polar coordinate system according to the offset angle and azimuth of each offset vector slice to obtain a five-dimensional observation system.

[0062] When grouping OVT domains, in the Cartesian coordinate system, the data is arranged as follows Figure 4 As shown. Figure 4 In the OVT domain grouping process shown in FIG, only the coordinates x and y are grouped in the three-dimensional coordinate system, so the offset and azimuth of the OVT domain are not uniformly changed. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present invention, the OVT domain should be divided in the polar coordinate system considering the offset and azimuth changes of the OVT domain. The grouping rules when dividing the OVT domain in the polar coordinate system are as follows: Figure 5 shown.

[0063] After dividing the OVT domain in the polar coordinate system, the obtained five-dimensional observation system is as follows: Figure 6 As shown, Figure 6 The triangle symbol in the figure represents the position of the OVT piece. Each OVT piece has its corresponding seismic source, which is located at a position that is centrally symmetrical with the detector.

[0064] Step S103, in the five-dimensional observation system, the travel time of the reflected wave of each offset vector slice in the offset vector slice domain is calculated according to the offset and azimuth of each offset vector slice.

[0065] Step S104, extracting offset vector slice gathers.

[0066] In an optional embodiment, the OVT gathers are obtained by arranging the data in the order of azimuth angle and offset distance.

[0067] Step S105, performing normal time difference correction on the reflected wave travel time of each offset vector slice in the offset vector slice gather to obtain the corrected reflected wave travel time.

[0068] The method for calculating the five-dimensional P-wave travel time of arbitrary anisotropic media in the OVT domain provided by the embodiment of the present invention solves the problem of travel time processing of complex anisotropic media in wide-azimuth seismic exploration. Information such as azimuth and offset are taken into account in the travel time calculation process, so it has important reference value in wide-azimuth seismic interpretation. At the same time, the normal time difference correction technology can distinguish the time difference caused by offset and azimuth while ensuring accuracy, laying the foundation for subsequent anisotropic parameter inversion. Geophysical data processing personnel can calculate the OVT gathers of complex anisotropic media under the five-dimensional observation system according to the embodiment of the present invention, and can also develop anisotropic parameter inversion methods according to the method provided by the embodiment of the present invention.

[0069] Embodiment 2:

[0070] In an embodiment of the invention, in a five-dimensional observation system, according to the offset and azimuth of each offset vector slice, the travel time of the reflected wave of each offset vector slice in the offset vector slice domain is calculated, specifically including:

[0071] Step a1, calculating the anisotropic parameters of the medium according to the density normalization coefficient matrix of the formation medium and the preset P-wave phase velocity.

[0072] In an optional embodiment, the anisotropic parameters of the medium include the difference between the P-wave phase velocity of the medium in the directions of coordinate axes x1, x2, and x3 and α, where α is a preset P-wave phase velocity, which, for example, can be the P-wave phase velocity in a reference isotropic medium; the gradient of change of the P-wave velocity of the medium in the directions of coordinate axes x1, x2, and x3; the degree to which the P-wave deviates from the axial direction in the plane (x1, x2); and the degree of deviation of the P-wave direction from the fast and slow S-wave directions in the plane (x1, x2).

[0082]

[0083] Among them, A ij represents the element in the density normalized stiffness coefficient matrix, α is the preset P-wave phase velocity, ε x , ε y , ε z Respectively represent the difference between the P-wave phase velocity and α in the direction of coordinate axis x1, x2, and x3; η x , η y , η z They represent the change gradient of the P wave velocity of the medium in the coordinate axes x1, x2, and x3 respectively; z Indicates the degree to which the P wave deviates from the axial direction in the plane (x1, x2); ξ 16 ,ξ 26 Respectively represent the degree of deviation between the P wave direction and the fast and slow S wave directions in the plane (x1, x2). S waves refer to waves whose vibration direction is perpendicular to the propagation direction. When S waves propagate along the interface between two media, the vibration direction of fast shear waves is parallel to the interface, and the vibration direction of slow shear waves is perpendicular to the interface. In the embodiments of the present invention, the medium interface is not involved. The P wave is a longitudinal wave that propagates and vibrates along the x3 axis. ξ 16 ,ξ 26 They respectively represent the degree of deviation between the P-wave direction of the longitudinal wave that propagates and vibrates along the Z-axis and the S-wave that propagates along the Z-axis and vibrates along the x1 and x2 axes.

[0084] Step a2, calculating the layer thickness normalized offset of each offset vector slice according to the offset of each offset vector slice and the depth of the horizontal reflection surface.

[0085] In an optional embodiment, the normalized offset of the layer thickness of the OVT sheet is calculated by the following formula:

[0086]

[0087] Among them, x is the normalized offset of the layer thickness, x is the offset of the offset vector slice, and H is the depth of the horizontal reflection surface (coinciding with the symmetry plane of the formation).

[0088] Step a3, calculating the zero-offset two-way travel time of each offset vector slice according to the depth of the horizontal reflection surface and the preset P-wave phase velocity.

[0089] In an optional embodiment, the zero-offset two-way travel time is calculated by the following formula:

[0090]

[0091] Where T0 is the zero-offset two-way travel time, H is the depth of the horizontal reflection surface, and α is the preset P-wave phase velocity.

[0092] Step a4, calculating the reflection wave travel time of each offset vector slice according to the zero offset two-way travel time, the layer thickness normalized offset of each offset vector slice, the azimuth of each offset vector slice and the anisotropy parameter.

[0093] In an optional embodiment, the travel time of the reflected wave of the offset vector slice is calculated by the following formula:

[0094]

[0095] Where T0 is the two-way travel time at zero offset, is the normalized offset of the offset vector slice by layer thickness, is the P-wave azimuthal anisotropic velocity factor:

[0096]

[0097] ε x , ε y , ε z Respectively represent the difference between the P-wave phase velocity of the medium in the coordinate axis x1, x2, and x3 directions and the preset P-wave phase velocity α; η x , η y , η z They represent the change gradient of the P wave velocity of the medium in the coordinate axes x1, x2, and x3 respectively; z Indicates the degree to which the P wave deviates from the axial direction in the plane (x1, x2); ξ 16 ,ξ 26 They represent the degree of deviation between the P wave direction and the fast and slow S wave directions in the plane (x1, x2); Indicates the azimuth of the offset vector patch.

[0098] In some optional implementations, the above step S105 specifically includes:

[0099] Step b1, determining the reference orientation of each offset vector slice.

[0100] Step b2, calculating the first travel time of each offset vector slice according to the layer thickness normalized offset and the reference azimuth of each offset vector slice.

[0101] Step b3, calculating the second travel time of each offset vector slice when the layer thickness normalized offset is 0 according to the reference azimuth of each offset vector slice.

[0104] Step b5, calculating the corrected reflected wave travel time of each offset vector slice according to the difference between the reflected wave travel time of each offset vector slice and the correction amount.

[0105] For example, if the x1 direction is determined as the reference direction in the normal time difference correction process, that is, direction, then:

[0106] The first travel time of the ith VOT slice calculated based on the normalized offset distance and reference azimuth of the ith VOT slice is:

[0107] The second travel time of the i-th VOT slice when the normalized offset distance is 0 is T(0,0) according to the layer thickness calculated based on the reference azimuth of the i-th VOT slice;
