Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of geophysical prospecting applications, and more particularly to a method, device, electronic equipment and medium for standardizing well logging curves based on lithologic constraints. Background Art

[0002] Well logging curves are primarily used for petrophysical analysis, AVO analysis, and post-stack and pre-stack inversion, and are essential data for reservoir prediction. However, the acquisition of well logging data often results in systematic and random errors in well logging curves between wells (and adjacent wells) with similar sedimentary backgrounds within the study area due to non-geological factors such as environmental factors, instrumental factors, and human factors. This leads to poor inter-well consistency and hinders reservoir prediction. Well logging curve standardization aims to eliminate inter-well (and adjacent well) errors caused by non-geological factors and improve inter-well consistency.

[0003] Generally, well log normalization assumes the presence of a set of lithologically stable reference layers within the study area, often consisting of large mudstone intervals. This is due to the relative stability of mudstone within the same sedimentary setting. By comparing the frequency domain histograms of the well logs from a single well with those from a reference well near the reference layer, the correction for the single well is calculated and normalized. However, it is often difficult to find a set of lithologically stable reference layers within or near the target interval. Furthermore, the reference layer and the target interval may not coincide with the same logging run, making high-precision well log normalization difficult.

[0004] At present, a method for normalizing well logging curves based on lithologic constraints needs to be developed.

Those skilled in the art should understand that these examples are only for facilitating understanding of the present invention, and any specific details thereof are not intended to limit the present invention in any way.

[0063] Example 1

[0118] Example 3

[0119] A certain basin is one of the most resource-rich geological units in China for coalbed methane resources. A particular gas field has been a key target for deep coalbed methane exploration and development in recent years. In particular, the Yangmei 1 well gas test, which produced over 100,000 cubic meters of gas per day, reveals the region's enormous potential for deep coalbed methane. However, geological factors crucial to the delineation of favorable areas, such as coal reservoir thickness prediction, coal seam roof structural depth and morphology, coal seam roof sealing, and reservoir fracture development, remain unclear. Prediction accuracy has not yet met required standards, and the accuracy of drilling engineering evaluations, such as the coal seam pressure coefficient and brittleness index, urgently needs to be improved.

[0120] The exploration area of ​​the block is about 2000km 2 Exploration and development efforts primarily focus on tight sandstone reservoirs of the Upper Paleozoic and carbonate karst reservoirs of the Lower Paleozoic. Drilling data is relatively abundant, and understanding is relatively clear. However, exploration research on a certain coalbed methane formation is relatively limited, and further research is needed. The target stratum in this study area is the 8# coal seam of a certain formation, which is a swamp-tidal flat deposit with a thickness of approximately 8 to 13 meters. Seismic reflections show strong phases, good lateral continuity, and a wide distribution. However, the 8# coal seam exhibits rapid spatial variations in thickness, making accurate thickness prediction and definition of top and bottom boundaries challenging. Furthermore, bright coal, a high-quality reservoir, is relatively thin and exhibits complex relationships with semi-bright coal, dark coal, semi-dark coal, and interbedded gangue. To improve coal seam thickness prediction and define top and bottom boundaries, there is an urgent need to enhance the accuracy of well logging curve standardization and construct high-precision low-frequency models for quantitative coal seam inversion.

[0124] Figure 5 A schematic diagram illustrating normalization of well logging curves according to an embodiment of the present invention is shown.

[0125] Therefore, in the implementation of this method, the GR curve is first used to construct the lithologic constraint factor, such as Figure 2 As shown in the figure, the impedance curve is then reconstructed using the lithology constraint factor, as shown in the figure. Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the weight of the target interval and the nearby mudstone microlayers is increased. Then, the reconstructed impedance curve is used to compare with the standard well in the frequency domain histogram of the logging curve to calculate the single well impedance correction value, as shown in the figure. Figure 4As shown, the single well impedance correction value is finally introduced into the impedance curve to be corrected to complete the single well impedance curve standardization process, as shown in Figure 5 Practical applications show that the well logging curve standardization method based on the present invention has high accuracy and good effect.
