Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application belongs to the technical field of oil and gas field seismic exploration, and particularly relates to a method for evaluating the coupling of shooting and detection of a seismic exploration observation system. BACKGROUND

[0002] Seismic exploration is one of the most important geophysical methods in oil and gas exploration and development, and the data acquisition quality thereof is directly related to the accuracy of seismic imaging and oil and gas reservoir interpretation. In seismic acquisition, the design of an observation system is the most critical link, which determines the coverage characteristics of a seismic wave field and data quality. A reasonable observation system can significantly improve the data processing and imaging effect, and therefore how to scientifically evaluate the advantages and disadvantages of an observation system becomes an important content of seismic acquisition design.

[0003] The existing observation system evaluation methods mainly focus on the quantitative analysis of observation system attributes, acquisition footprint evaluation, wave field numerical simulation based on a geological model, illumination degree analysis, prestack migration operator response analysis, and noise suppression performance evaluation. These methods can reflect the influence of an observation system on imaging to some extent, but the adaptability to the residual static correction processing link is not considered.

[0004] In seismic data processing, static correction is a key step, and in particular in complex surface areas such as the western region, the effect of residual static correction often becomes a main factor affecting imaging accuracy. The design of an observation system has a direct impact on the solvability of residual static correction, and this impact is usually measured by "coupling of shooting and detection". The coupling of shooting and detection refers to the coupling strength between a shot point and a detection point in an observation system, that is, the connection degree between them. The stronger the coupling is, the closer the relationship between the shot point and the detection point is, which is beneficial to improving the calculation accuracy of the residual static correction amount.

[0005] The commonly used coupling evaluation method of shooting and detection is relatively simple, and usually measures the coupling degree according to the number of repeated receiving lines in the rolling process of shooting and detection, or by calculating the "surface coverage times". The more the repeated lines or coverage times are, the better the coupling is. However, this kind of method mainly depends on the geometric superposition relationship, and fails to consider the actual surface complexity of the work area, nor does it establish a direct link with the residual static correction solving process in seismic data processing, and therefore there are problems of lack of rationality and weak pertinence. When applied in complex areas, the evaluation result is often difficult to truly reflect the support degree of the observation system to the static correction processing effect.

[0006] The above method is too simple, and does not consider the actual situation of the work area. Therefore, it is urgent to propose a new coupling evaluation method of shooting and detection, which can simulate the technical principle of residual static correction in seismic data processing according to the actual complexity of the work area, and quantitatively evaluate the coupling of shooting and detection of an observation system for the effect of residual static correction, so as to improve the quality of seismic acquisition design in complex areas.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] In order to make the objects, technical solutions and advantages of the present application clearer, the present application will be further described in detail below with reference to examples. Of course, the specific examples described herein are only used to explain the present application, and are not used to limit the present application.

[0021] Example 1 Referring to Figure 1 The present embodiment provides a method for evaluating coupling of shot and receiver of a seismic exploration observation system, characterized in that the method comprises: S1, setting parameters of an observation system to be evaluated, the parameters comprising shot point position and receiver point position, and corresponding relationship between excitation and reception. The shot point position determines a way of arranging a seismic source (shot line distance, shot point distance, etc.), and the receiver point position determines a way of arranging a receiving array (receiving trace distance, line distance, etc.).

[0022] S2, establishing a residual static correction amount model of shot point and receiver point, comprising: According to the complexity of the ground surface in the work area, the numerical range of the residual static correction amount is set; the residual static correction amount of each shot point or geophone point is randomly distributed within a numerical range and has positive and negative values. If there is three-dimensional seismic data in the construction area, the residual static correction amount distribution is set according to the actual data; if the three-dimensional seismic acquisition is carried out for the first time in the construction area, for the eastern horizontal ground surface on land, the numerical range is generally set as [-10ms, 10ms]; for the western undulating ground surface on land, the numerical range is generally set as [-20ms, 20ms].

[0023] Within the numerical range, the residual static correction amount values of each shot point and geophone point are generated by using a random number function to form a plane distribution model of the shot points and geophone points.

[0024] S3, based on the shot-receiver relationship of the observation system and combined with the residual static correction amount model, the synthetic residual static correction amount of each seismic trace is calculated, and the synthetic residual static correction amount of each seismic trace is the sum of the residual static correction amount model value of the shot point corresponding to the seismic trace and the residual static correction amount model value of the geophone point. The "shot-receiver relationship" refers to which geophones receive the signal when a certain shot point excites the signal in the observation system design.

[0025] S4, taking the residual static correction amount of each shot point and geophone point as an unknown quantity and taking the synthetic residual static correction amount as a known quantity, the residual static correction amount of the shot point and the geophone point is solved. The residual static correction amount of the shot point and the geophone point includes: According to the shot-receiver relationship of the observation system, a relationship equation group of the residual static correction amount of the shot point and the geophone point and the synthetic residual static correction amount is established; The residual static correction amount of each shot point and geophone point is obtained by solving the equation through an iterative algorithm.

[0026] S5, the relative error between the solved residual static correction amount and the model value is calculated, and the shot-receiver coupling of the observation system is evaluated according to the relative error. The average value of the relative error of each shot point and geophone point is calculated as the evaluation result, and the larger the value is, the worse the shot-receiver coupling of the observation system to be evaluated is, and vice versa.

[0027] Embodiment two: Reference Figures 2-7 In order to verify the application effect of the method for evaluating the shot-receiver coupling of a seismic exploration observation system, the following takes the work area A as an example, two different observation systems are designed in the work area, which are named as observation system 1 and observation system 2.

[0028] S1, the parameters of the observation system to be evaluated are set, and the specific parameters are shown in Table 1. The shot-receiver coupling of the two observation systems is evaluated by the method of the application.

[0029] Table 1

[0030] The observation system layout is realized by template rolling, the bin distance is the moving distance of one lateral rolling of the template, and the rolling arrangement is the receiving line number passed by one lateral rolling; the template is rolled vertically according to the shot line distance. The templates of the two observation systems in Table 1 can be represented as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , in which the positions of the shot points and the geophones and the relationship between the shot points and the geophones (all the geophones receive when the shot point in the template is excited) are defined.

[0031] S2, a model of residual static correction amounts of shot points and geophones is established, the work area is the second three-dimensional seismic acquisition, and according to the existing data analysis (see Figure 2 ), the initial residual static correction amounts of the work area are mainly distributed in [-10ms, 10ms].

[0032] The residual static correction amount values of each shot point and geophone are generated in the range of [-10ms, 10ms] by using a random number function to form a planar distribution model of the shot points and the geophones, and the random number function is: (1) wherein RAND() is the random number function, and a and b are the lower limit and the upper limit of the random number distribution respectively. Figure 5 is the planar distribution of the residual static correction amount model of the shot points and the geophones randomly generated in the interval of [-10ms, 10ms] by using formula (1).

[0033] S3, according to the pre-evaluated observation system, the synthetic residual static correction amount of each seismic trace is calculated by using formula (2).

[0034] (2) wherein i=1, 2, 3,..., M, M is the total number of shot points; j=1, 2, 3,..., N, N is the total number of geophones; is the model residual static correction amount of the shot point i, is the model residual static correction amount of the geophone j, is the synthetic residual static correction amount of the seismic trace received by the jth geophone when the ith shot point is excited.

[0035] S4, the residual static correction amount of each shot point and geophone is taken as an unknown quantity, and the synthetic residual static correction amount of each seismic trace is taken as a known quantity, an equation group (formula 3) is established according to the shot-geophone relationship in the pre-observation system, and the residual static correction amounts of the shot points and the geophones are obtained by solving the equation by using the Gauss-Seidel iteration method.

[0036] (3) S5, calculate the relative error between the residual static correction quantity obtained by solving and the model value, and evaluate the shot-receiver coupling of the observation system according to the relative error. The average value is calculated according to the relative error of each shot point and receiver, which is used as the evaluation result. The larger the value is, the worse the shot-receiver coupling of the observation system to be evaluated is, and vice versa. Figure 6 and Figure 7 The relative errors between the residual static correction quantities of the observation system 1 and the observation system 2 and the model values are shown in Figures 1 and 2, respectively. It can be seen from the figures that the error of the observation system 1 is obviously smaller than that of the observation system 2. Further calculation of the average relative error shows that the observation system 1 is 1.3%, and the observation system 2 is 3.2%, which indicates that the shot-receiver coupling of the observation system 1 is better.

[0037] Example Three: Referring to Figures 8-12 To verify the application effect of the method for evaluating the shot-receiver coupling of a seismic exploration observation system, the following takes the work area B as an example. Two different observation systems are designed in the work area, which are named as observation system 3 and observation system 4.

[0038] S1, set the parameters of the observation system to be evaluated. The specific parameters are shown in Table 2. The shot-receiver coupling of the two observation systems is evaluated by the method.

[0039] Table 2

[0040] S2, establish the residual static correction quantity model of the shot point and the receiver. The work area is located in the west, the surface is relatively complex, and it is the first time for three-dimensional seismic acquisition. According to the experience in similar areas, the residual static correction quantity is mainly distributed in [-20ms, 20ms], Figure 10 The plane distribution of the residual static correction quantity model of the shot point and the receiver randomly generated in the [-20ms, 20ms] interval by using formula (1) is shown in Figure 3.

[0041] S3, according to the pre-evaluated observation system, calculate the synthesized residual static correction quantity of each seismic trace by using formula (2).

[0042] S4, take the residual static correction quantity of each shot point and receiver as an unknown quantity, and the synthesized residual static correction quantity of each seismic trace as a known quantity. According to the shot-receiver relationship in the pre-observation system, establish an equation group (formula 3), and solve the equation by using the Gauss-Seidel iteration method to obtain the residual static correction quantity of the shot point and the receiver.

[0043] S5, calculate the relative error between the residual static correction quantity obtained by solving and the model value, and evaluate the shot-receiver coupling of the observation system according to the relative error. The average value is calculated according to the relative error of each shot point and receiver, which is used as the evaluation result. The larger the value is, the worse the shot-receiver coupling of the observation system to be evaluated is, and vice versa. FromFigure 11 and Figure 12 As can be seen from the figure, the error of the observation system 4 is obviously smaller than that of the observation system 3. Further calculation of the average relative error shows that the observation system 4 is 1.5% and the observation system 3 is 2.4%, which indicates that the coupling of the observation system 4 is better.
