[0002] Magnetotelluric sounding is an exploration method that studies the electrical properties and distribution characteristics of underground rock strata by observing the natural alternating electromagnetic field on the ground. Due to its advantages such as large exploration depth, lack of shielding by high-resistivity strata, high resolution for low-resistivity strata, and simple construction, it is widely used in oil and gas exploration.

[0003] As oil and gas exploration and development deepens, it is necessary to reprocess and interpret the magnetotelluric sounding data of adjacent blocks collected at different times, so as to provide reliable data for further comprehensive geological structure research in the whole region.

[0004] The construction and processing factors vary considerably across different blocks. Due to differences in the acquisition instruments, random interference, and the large span of acquisition years, there are errors between data collected in different years. This leads to significant errors in the splicing and processing of data from different blocks, resulting in obvious splicing marks that directly affect the tectonic morphology and make it difficult to reinterpret existing magnetotelluric sounding profiles.

The residual distribution of the stitched data and the original data is checked to ensure that no systematic bias is introduced during stitching. Where there are significant differences in data quality or uneven noise distribution in overlapping areas, a weighted average method is used, which reduces abrupt changes at the stitching point by assigning different weight coefficients to different datasets. If it is necessary to highlight the local characteristics of the overlapping area data, a sliding window method is used. By setting the window length and sliding step, statistical analysis and overlay are performed on the data within the window to preserve local data characteristics.

Block A is located northwest of Block B. The magnetotelluric sounding data for Block A was acquired in 2000 using the MT-1 magnetotelluric system manufactured by EMI Corporation of the United States. The magnetotelluric sounding data for Block B was acquired in 2009 using the V5-2000 series magnetotelluric system manufactured by Phoenix Technologies of Canada. Figure 3 The resistivity inversion profile is a direct splicing of blocks A and B, as shown below. Figure 3 As shown, there is a significant difference in resistivity between block A and block B in the overlapping area, and the splicing marks are obvious. Figure 4 The resistivity inversion profile of the spliced ​​block A and block B according to the present invention shows a continuous change in resistivity in the overlapping area, a natural connection at the splice point without obvious splicing marks, and better agreement with known faults and lithological interfaces.

[0153] Step 5): The frequency range of the magnetotelluric sounding data in Block A and Block B is the same, but the sampling interval is different. Taking the sampling interval of Block A as the standard, the Kriging method is used to interpolate and align the frequency points of Block B.

[0154] Step 6): Rotate the magnetotelluric sounding data of Block A and Block B to the structural strike.

[0155] According to the present invention, step 7) is performed: the magnetotelluric sounding data of block A and block B are converted into EDI standard data format.

[0160] Step 12): Calculate the ratio κ(f) of the average apparent resistivity at the common measuring point at the boundary between blocks A and B. Then, calculate the ρ(f) of all measuring points in block A. A (f) is corrected by multiplying by κ(f).

[0161] Step 13): Calculate the average impedance phase difference Δθ(f) at the common point of intersection of block A and block B, add Δθ(f) to the impedance phase of all measuring points in block A and correct it by taking the modulus of 360°.

[0162] Step 14): The data of block A and block B are spliced ​​together, and a weighted average is used to achieve a smooth data transition for the overlapping areas.

[0163] Step 15): Check the residual distribution between the spliced ​​data and the original data to ensure that the splicing did not introduce systematic bias.

[0164] Step 16): Use the Occam optimal algorithm to perform joint inversion on the stitched data to obtain the stitched depth domain resistivity data volume model, analyze whether the stitching process is reasonable, and avoid over-correction.

[0165] This application example demonstrates the secondary concatenation and stitching of magnetotelluric sounding data from adjacent blocks in a western oilfield in China.
