[0002] As most domestic oil fields enter the late exploration stage at present, the structures in the study area are becoming more and more complex, and the requirements for imaging technology are getting higher and higher. Seismic data processing is gradually changing from prestack time migration to prestack depth migration. Depth domain seismic data processing can effectively solve problems such as depth error, imaging of high-steep structures, and unclear fracture characteristics that cannot be solved by time domain processing.

[0003] In depth domain seismic data processing, the most important thing is to obtain a high-precision velocity model.

Compared with using only the time domain processing velocity as the initial velocity, both the longitudinal and transverse accuracies are improved, and the number of iterations of the velocity model is reduced. Conventionally, when using the time domain processing velocity as the initial velocity, about 6-7 rounds of iteration are required for the imaging effect of deep domain seismic data to be optimal. However, with the initial velocity model for deep domain data processing established by combining geological understanding, drilling and logging data, and time migration data in this method, the number of iterations can be reduced to 3-4 rounds. For each project, 3 rounds of velocity iteration updates and migration work can be reduced. On the one hand, it reduces the cluster usage time, saving a large amount of costs and computing time. On the other hand, it can shorten the working area of the entire project research and improve efficiency.

[0043] Embodiment 1

[0044] As Figure 1 shown, this embodiment provides a method for establishing an initial velocity model for deep domain data processing, including:

[0045] S1: Obtaining depth data based on the prestack time migration data of seismic data;

[0046] The method for obtaining depth data in this step specifically includes:

[0047] Performing prestack time migration on the seismic data to obtain prestack time migration data;

[0048] Performing time-depth conversion on the prestack time migration data using the time migration velocity to obtain depth data.

[0049] Before step S1, it further includes:

[0050] Analyzing the geological characteristics of the work area to obtain the velocities of different strata in the study area, and taking the strata with similar velocities as a velocity unit.

[0051] S2: Interpret the top and bottom horizons of formations with similar velocities on the depth data to obtain horizon interpretation data, and extract the gradient structure tensor attributes;

[0052] S3: Filter the logging curves to obtain low-frequency logging curves with frequencies lower than the set frequency value;

[0053] In this step, it is preferable to set the frequency value to 60 HZ.

[0054] Specifically, during the processing of seismic data in the depth domain, low-frequency velocities are required. Therefore, the logging curves are filtered to remove the curve features greater than or equal to 60 HZ, and only the low-frequency information is retained.

[0055] S4: Establish a time-depth conversion velocity model based on the low-frequency logging curves, logging stratification information, and horizon interpretation data, and use the gradient structure tensor attributes to constrain the time-depth conversion velocity model;

[0056] In this step, based on the low-frequency logging curves, logging stratification information, and horizon interpretation data, a time-depth conversion velocity model is established through least squares interpolation.

[0057] Specifically, the logging curves and logging stratification in step S3 and the interpreted horizons in step S2 are used to establish a time-depth conversion velocity model, which is constrained by the gradient structure tensor attributes. The advantage of this velocity model is relatively high longitudinal accuracy and good conformity with the structure, but the lateral accuracy is insufficient.

[0058] S5: Convert the root-mean-square velocity obtained from the time-domain processing into interval velocity, and incorporate the interval velocity into the time-depth conversion velocity model to obtain an initial velocity model for depth-domain data processing.

[0059] In this step, the root-mean-square velocity obtained from the time-domain processing is converted into interval velocity through the Dix formula.

[0060] In this embodiment, after obtaining the initial velocity model for depth-domain data processing, it further includes:

[0061] S6: Conduct migration imaging work based on the initial velocity model for depth-domain data processing.

[0062] Specifically, the root-mean-square velocity obtained from the time-domain processing is converted into interval velocity and incorporated into the time-depth conversion velocity model obtained in step S4 to establish a new velocity model, which makes up for the deficiency of lateral accuracy. Then, this new velocity model is used as the initial velocity model for depth-domain data processing to conduct migration imaging work.

[0063] Embodiment 2

[0064] To make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention clearer, the following takes a certain area in Sichuan as an example to introduce the work of velocity modeling in the process of deep-domain data processing, so as to explain the present invention in more detail.

[0065] The flow of a method for establishing an initial velocity model for deep-domain data processing in this embodiment is as Figure 2 shown and includes the following steps:

[0066] (1) Conduct geological feature analysis of the work area. By analyzing, it is found that the interval velocities of the Jurassic Suining Formation in this area are similar, with an average formation velocity of 1985 m / s; the interval velocities of the Shaximiao Formation are similar, with an average velocity of 43908 m / s; the interval velocities of the Zhenzhuchong-Lianggaoshan Formation are 4600 m / s; the interval velocities of the Xujiahe Formation are similar, with an average velocity of 4950 m / s; and the interval velocities of the Leikoupo Formation are similar, with an average velocity of 5163 m / s.

[0067] (2) Conduct pre-stack time migration of seismic data. Use the time migration velocity to perform time-depth conversion on the pre-stack time migration data, and interpret the bottom boundary horizons of the Suining Formation, the Shaximiao Formation, the Zhenzhuchong Formation, the Xujiahe Formation, and the Leikoupo Formation on the converted depth data.

[0068] (3) Since low-frequency velocity is required in the process of deep-domain seismic data processing and high-frequency information will cause poor imaging, it is necessary to filter the high-frequency logging curves. In the study, the curve characteristics of the logging curves of wells ST1, YT1, QT1, and ZT1 greater than 60 HZ are filtered out, and only the low-frequency information below 60 Hz is retained.

[0069] (4) Establish a time-depth conversion velocity model by least-square interpolation for the logging curves after high-frequency removal, logging stratification, the horizons of the Suining Formation, the Shaximiao Formation, the Zhenzhuchong Formation, the Xujiahe Formation, and the Leikoupo Formation, and use the gradient structure tensor attribute for constraint. The advantage of this velocity model is higher longitudinal accuracy, but the lateral accuracy is insufficient.

[0070] (5) Convert the root-mean-square velocity of the work area in the time domain processing into interval velocity through the Dix formula and incorporate it into the velocity model in (4) to establish a new velocity model, which makes up for the shortcoming of insufficient lateral accuracy.

[0071] (6) Use the velocity model in (5) as the initial velocity model for deep-domain processing and conduct migration imaging work.

[0072] In the specific implementation process of the project, such as Figure 3As shown in the figure, two different velocity models were established by two methods respectively. From the comparison of the velocity models, compared with the initial velocity model on the left that directly converts the time migration velocity to the interval velocity by the conventional method, the initial model constructed by the method of the present invention under well control constraint on the right has higher accuracy and better matches the structure of the work area.

[0073] As Figure 4 shown in the figure, migration imaging was carried out on the work area through two different initial models. First, from the comparison of the migration gathers, compared with the migration gathers on the left that directly convert the time migration velocity to the interval velocity by the conventional method, the flatness of the migration gathers constructed by the method of the present invention under well control constraint on the right is higher. It should be noted that whether the gathers are flattened is an important basis for the rationality of the velocity model. The flatter the gathers, the more reasonable the velocity model, and the better the final imaging effect, which can reduce the number of subsequent velocity model iterations.

[0074] As Figure 5 shown in the figure, from the migration imaging results of the two different initial velocity models, compared with the migration imaging of the velocity model on the left that directly converts the time migration velocity to the interval velocity by the conventional method, the migration imaging effect of the initial velocity model under the well control structure constraint of the method of the present invention on the right is significantly improved, with stronger in-phase axis focusing and more obvious channel features.

[0075] Using the two velocity models to carry out depth domain processing, to obtain the optimal imaging with the same small effect, the velocity model of the conventional time migration velocity converted to interval velocity was iterated 7 times. While the initial velocity model with well control structure constraint established by the method of the present invention achieved the same effect after 3 iterations. The average time for one round of the velocity model is 8 days, and saving 4 rounds of time saves 32 days, greatly improving the efficiency of depth domain seismic data processing. In each round of velocity update, a large amount of cluster computing resources are required, and a large amount of electricity and depreciation costs are incurred. Saving 3 - 4 velocity update processes can also save a large amount of costs.
