[0002] With the continuous development of marine geophysical exploration technology and equipment, major oil companies are increasingly demanding higher data quality. Acquisition modes are evolving towards wide-azimuth, wide-bandwidth, and high-density data, resulting in a continuous increase in seismic data volumes. Compared to traditional acquisition equipment, seafloor nodes offer self-storage and self-powered data, making them more flexible to deploy and recycle, adapting to complex construction environments. They are increasingly favored by geophysical exploration companies. The GPR (Geophysical Point Recorder) seafloor node, a new four-component seafloor node, meets the latest industry requirements, boasting a data recording endurance of up to 60 days, digital fidelity, and ultra-quiet performance. GPR seafloor nodes have been fully deployed for the first time on the ADNOC TZ project. To ensure operational efficiency, seafloor nodes are typically retrieved after completing an acquisition mission. After recharging, data downloading, and clock calibration, they need to be redeployed to the seafloor for the next acquisition mission.

[0041] In order to make the objectives, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the embodiments of the present invention are further described in detail below in conjunction with specific embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0042] It should be noted that all expressions using "first" and "second" in the embodiments of the present invention are for distinguishing two non-identical entities with the same name or non-identical parameters. It can be seen that "first" and "second" are only for the convenience of expression and should not be understood as limitations on the embodiments of the present invention. Subsequent embodiments will not explain this one by one.
[0043] In the actual work of marine seismic exploration, in order to ensure that the node units can work normally before collecting data, field workers need to carry a notebook to collect quality control data from the dispersed node unit array. After all the quality control data are collected, the quality control data are transmitted to the CSC host. The operator performs quality inspection on the quality control data on the CSC host. When all the quality control data are qualified, the seismic data collected by the node unit is valid data. In this process, if the quality control data cannot be collected and qualified at one time, the field workers must carry a notebook back to the field node unit array and re-collect the node units where the unqualified quality control data are located. Depending on the terrain of the construction site, the time it takes for the field workers to travel back and forth to the node unit array by instrument vehicle is also different. In plain areas, the average time for a single round trip is more than 30 minutes. In mountainous loess plateau areas, the average time for a single round trip is more than 60 minutes. This greatly increases the waiting time for collecting quality control data, and also increases the safety risks brought by the quality control data collectors riding in vehicles. There is a need for a fast and efficient quality control method in the prior art.
[0044] Based on the above objectives, a first aspect of the embodiments of the present invention provides an embodiment of a rapid quality control method for GPR nodes. Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a flow chart of an embodiment of a GPR node rapid quality control method provided by the present invention. Figure 1 As shown, the GPR node rapid quality control method of an embodiment of the present invention includes:
[0045] Get the seismic data of the GPR node,
[0046] The seismic data is segmented to obtain multiple data channels. The root mean square value file is calculated for the sampling points of each data channel. Based on the conversion of the root mean square value file into an image, anomalies are found for RMS (root mean square value) quality control.
[0047] Check the node multi-directional angle change values recorded in the node header to perform morphological angle quality control;
[0048] Extract drift from seismic data to generate text files for clock drift quality control;
[0049] The actual number of seismic recording channels is calculated based on the seismic data, and the expected number of seismic recording channels is calculated based on the start and end times in the node recording data. The actual number of seismic recording channels and the expected number of seismic recording channels are compared to perform data integrity quality control.
[0050] In this embodiment, the method further includes: generating an alarm message in response to any one of the quality control abnormalities among the root mean square value quality control, the morphology quality control, the clock drift quality control, and the data integrity quality control.
[0051] Furthermore, seismic data from GPR nodes is acquired and the SEGD data, including the root mean square amplitude, underwater morphological angle, recording time, and clock drift, is read to perform quality control on these indicators. SEGD files are a seismic data recording format widely used for recording and processing seismic data. SEG-D files contain seismic trace data, which are seismic wave signals recorded by geophones during seismic exploration. Each seismic trace corresponds to a specific seismic signal, and SEG-D files organize and store this seismic trace data.
[0052] Furthermore, for the RMS quality control of amplitude, the continuous seismic record of SEGD data is segmented to obtain multiple data channels, each of which is 1 minute long. All sampling points in each channel are calculated using the following formula:
[0053]
[0054] The text file of the amplitude root mean square value is obtained and displayed graphically according to the channel number. It can quickly find the abnormal amplitude situation of each node in the entire recording process, such as zero amplitude, abnormally large amplitude, weak channel situation, etc. Figure 2 The image is a data image generated based on the amplitude root mean square file, wherein the conversion of the root mean square value file into an image to find abnormalities for RMS quality control includes:
[0055] If a blank lane appears in the image, it will be output as missing node data in the RMS quality control.
[0056] If an abnormally large amplitude value appears in the image compared to adjacent nodes, it will be output as a suspected abnormal channel in the RMS quality control.
[0057] Furthermore, the underwater morphology angles recorded by GPR nodes are quality-controlled: Due to the complex seabed environment, nodes inevitably experience azimuth changes on the seabed. By checking the pitch, row, and yaw angle values recorded in the GPR node header, we can determine whether the node has any abnormal angle values during the continuous recording process and determine whether the node is operating normally. If abnormal angle values are found in this file, they can be discovered and replaced before the node is sent to the field.
[0058] Furthermore, GPR node clock drift quality control: a text file is generated by extracting the drift amount in the SEGD data. Checking this file can quickly determine whether the node clock drift is abnormal.
[0059] Furthermore, GPR node data integrity quality control: During the node recording process, due to the influence of the seabed environment or internal node component failure, recording may stop for a period of time, resulting in the loss of some seismic records. The actual number of seismic recording channels can be calculated based on the output valid seismic record SEGD data header information. The expected number of seismic recording channels can be calculated by calculating the start and end times of the node recording data. By comparing the two data, it is possible to quickly determine whether the node recording status is normal.
[0060] The following uses an OBN seismic exploration project that uses GPR nodes for data acquisition as an example to illustrate the specific implementation method.
[0061] GPR nodes are being fully utilized in the ADNOC Transition Zone Seismic Exploration Project, a subsidiary of the Marine Geophysical Exploration Company. Initially, GPR node quality control was performed during the processing of SEGD data after downloading. The results of this quality control were used to determine the node's operating status. To reduce the bad track rate of GPR nodes collecting data, nodes with abnormal operating conditions were identified for repair and testing based on the quality control results. This process takes three to four days, and by then, the abnormally operating nodes have already been sent back to the field and deployed. They can only be replaced, repaired, and tested after being stored again. This slows down the replacement of problematic nodes and increases the bad track rate.
[0062] The application of the rapid quality control function of the GPR node of the present invention can directly read the amplitude root mean square, underwater morphological angle, data recording time, clock drift and other data recorded by the SEGD data downloaded by the GPR node, and generate relevant quality control results. By judging these results, the working status of the node can be quickly obtained, thereby achieving rapid quality control of the GPR node. Before the node is sent to the field, the node with abnormal status is selected to avoid the re-laying of the problematic node, which can effectively reduce the node bad track rate during the seismic exploration process and thus improve the quality of seismic exploration data. The application of rapid quality control of the GPR node has effectively guaranteed the smooth, efficient and high-quality construction of the transition zone seismic exploration project of the marine geophysical exploration branch ADNOC.
[0063] It should be pointed out in particular that the various steps in the various embodiments of the above-mentioned GPR node rapid quality control method can be cross-linked, replaced, added, and deleted with each other. Therefore, these reasonable permutations, combinations, and transformations of the GPR node rapid quality control method should also fall within the scope of protection of the present invention, and the scope of protection of the present invention should not be limited to the embodiments.
