Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of geophysical exploration, and in particular to a true amplitude seismic wave imaging method based on illumination compensation in the dip angle and reflection angle domain. Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, seismic data interpretation and reservoir identification require that seismic data have reliable amplitude information so that the physical parameters of the underground medium can be inverted based on the amplitude information. Therefore, the fidelity of the amplitude in the seismic data migration imaging results is crucial. Reverse time migration uses the full-wave wave equation as the wave field extension operator, which can simulate various complex wave phenomena such as rotation waves and prismatic waves, and has no inclination restrictions, so it can effectively image complex media with strong lateral inhomogeneity. However, even if reverse time migration uses a true amplitude wave field extension operator, it is still not enough to achieve true amplitude seismic wave imaging. This is because the migration is only an adjoint operator of the forward simulation process, not a true inverse operator. Complex overlying strata and limited migration aperture will lead to uneven illumination of underground structures, thereby affecting the fidelity of imaging amplitude.

[0003] Least squares migration is used to correct the amplitude in seismic imaging results and improve the resolution. However, least squares migration is often solved iteratively through optimization algorithms such as gradient descent, which is computationally expensive and sometimes unstable.
