AI Technical Summary
Existing biased VSP interferometry algorithms mainly rely on Fermat paths for interferometric construction, resulting in a single path and an inability to fully utilize multi-path information, which affects the underground reflection energy and resolution.
Interference calculations are performed using the principle of multipath summation. By sorting biased VSP data into common detector point gathers and setting the length and number of acquisitions of the multipath signal, the multipath signal of two observation points is calculated to generate a virtual source waveform. The non-stable phase of the cross term is used to reduce the energy of the cross phase.
It increases the intensity of effective reflected energy from underground, enhances the imaging range and resolution, and improves the ability of VSP data to describe reservoirs.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of biased VSP interferometric seismic methods, and more specifically, to a multipath biased VSP interferometric seismic method, apparatus, electronic device, and medium. Background Technology
[0002] The theoretical framework of the virtual source method states that if a given pair of receivers records wave fields excited on a closed surface surrounding the two receivers, then the true impulse response (i.e., Green's function) between the two receivers can be obtained by performing correlation calculations on the wave fields recorded by the two receivers and summing over all sources. VSP interferometry utilizes multiple wave information from VSP data to reconstruct pseudo-surface seismic data through virtual source construction, thereby increasing the number of stacks, significantly expanding the illumination (imaging) range, and enhancing the reservoir description capabilities of VSP data.
[0003] Imaging common shot gathers using reflected waves at different incident angles is extremely important because reflected waves with smaller incident angles result in better vertical resolution, while reflected waves with wider incident angles result in higher horizontal resolution. These conditions can be met by increasing the aperture width of the surface source or the geophone in the well. Utilizing higher-order multiples or other subsurface reflection mirrors, such as those from the seabed, can also increase the number of reflected waves and superpositions at different incident angles.
[0004] The current biased VSP interferometric algorithm mainly uses the Fermat path to construct virtual source ground seismic records, which is too simplistic.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to develop a multipath biased VSP interferometric seismic method, apparatus, electronic equipment, and medium.

[0056] like Figure 1 As shown, this multipath biased VSP interferometric seismic method includes:
[0057] Step 101: The biased VSP data is sorted into common receiver point gathers;
[0058] Step 102: For the common detector point gather, set the length of the multipath signal and the number of acquisitions;
[0059] Step 103: Calculate the multipath signals of the two observation points A and B, and then calculate the virtual source waveform, which is the multipath interferometric record.
[0060] In one example, the length of the multipath signal is 2-3 times the period of the recorded signal wavelet.
[0061] In one example, the multipath signal was sampled 3-6 times.
[0062] In one example, the multipath signal at observation point A in the j-th observation is:
[0063] u iA =R iA (t iA -(j-1)dw / 2:t iA +(j-1)dw / 2)

[0069]
[0070] Where * represents convolution.
[0071] In one example, the multipath interference record is obtained by summing the waveforms of each virtual source.
[0072] Figure 2a and Figure 2b Schematic diagrams of a single-path record and a multi-path record according to an embodiment of the present invention are shown respectively.
[0073] Specifically, during earthquake propagation, due to the inhomogeneity of the subsurface medium, waves propagate in multiple directions. Waves traveling along the Fermat propagation path reach the receiving end first, such as... Figure 2a , Figure 2b As shown. The multipath signal received by the receiver is:

[0079] The interferometric algorithm can be expressed as:
[0080]
[0081] In the formula, the Green's function is a directly measured result. Therefore, the virtual source waveform VS(t) has a zero-phase spectrum. Assume W in equation (3) i =1 and transforming to the time domain, we have:
[0082]
[0083] The asterisk (*) in the formula represents convolution.
