Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of petroleum geophysical exploration technology, in particular to a high-precision seismic imaging method and device for special geological bodies. BACKGROUND

[0002] In conventional seismic imaging processing, seismic data imaging is carried out based on conventional seismic imaging theory. However, in actual production, the data obtained according to this method does not meet the premise assumptions of geophysical prospecting theory, so the target results processed are not completely true structures and imaging forms of the target geological bodies, and the contact relationship with the nearby faults is relatively complex. These special geological bodies are not clear and intuitive in conventional seismic data, and their ranges cannot be accurately determined and quantified. Although subsequent work has carried out various optimization processing methods, the actual seismic information has been affected by stacking factors, so that most of the effective information has been submerged and superimposed. It cannot be effectively extracted and utilized. This brings great technical pitfalls to subsequent geological exploration and well location.

[0003] In addition, the method of depth domain imaging is artificially assumed to adapt to the changes and structure of the measured underground strata, and cannot accurately constrain and correct the imaging of the data by known exploration multiple information to ensure the convergence and imaging of the reflection wave field of the special geological body. Therefore, even if multiple methods are used after imaging, the results obtained cannot truly reflect the seismic data of small geological bodies in deep and ultra-deep underground, and the reliability is uncertain. Especially some special geological bodies such as secondary faults, special lithological bodies, intrusive bodies and lens bodies, the contact relationship around them is relatively vague, and the breakpoint fault is not clear enough. This brings some false seismic geological phenomena and technical risks for subsequent exploration.

[0032] Preferred embodiments of the invention will now be described in more detail. While preferred embodiments of the invention are described below, it should be understood that the invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited to the embodiments set forth herein.

[0033] This invention provides a high-precision seismic imaging method for special geological bodies, such as... Figure 1 As shown, it includes:

[0034] Joint modeling was performed on multiple well logs in the work area to fit the imaging constraint factor;

[0035] The original imaging velocity model is iteratively optimized by using the imaging constraint factor as a constraint.

[0036] If the result of the iterative optimization converges, the imaging velocity model after iterative optimization is used as the final velocity field to perform depth domain migration imaging of TTI and output imaging data.

[0037] If the result of iterative optimization does not converge, refit the imaging constraint factor until the result of iterative optimization converges.

[0038] In this invention, based on multi-well joint modeling of the work area, imaging factors of special geological bodies are fitted, and imaging constraint factors are used as constraint factors to optimize and adjust the original imaging velocity model. After iteration, the latest velocity result model is output. Using this velocity model as the final velocity field, depth domain migration imaging of TTI is performed. This method is suitable for large-scale regional development well determination, avoids the limitations of conventional depth imaging data, and the calculation results are easy to converge, with high calculation efficiency and higher well determination accuracy.

[0039] According to the present invention, joint modeling of multiple well logs in the work area is performed, and the fitting imaging constraint factors include:

[0040] The well data from multiple logging wells in the work area were analyzed and optimized, and special geological bodies were inverted, quantified, and their ranges were determined.

[0041] Establish a seismic model for special geological bodies and calculate the imaging constraint factor for special geological bodies in this work area.

[0042] According to the present invention, iterative optimization of the original imaging velocity model by using the imaging constraint factor as a constraint factor includes:

[0043] Input seismic data from the work area to determine the conventional velocity model for pre-stack data;

[0044] The original imaging velocity model is iteratively optimized by taking the imaging constraint factor and the pre-stack data conventional velocity model as input.

[0045] According to the present invention, the result of iterative optimization converges to the point that all CIP gathers output by iterative optimization are flattened.

[0046] According to the present invention, the result of the iterative optimization is that the CIP gather output by the iterative optimization is not fully flattened.

[0047] The method of this invention has a clear concept and strong targeting, avoiding the limitations of traditional methods, making full use of effective information, improving imaging accuracy, adapting to high-precision imaging of special geological bodies under various data conditions, and better eliminating the technical risks and traps caused by insufficient clarity and quantification of special geological bodies, thereby improving the success rate of exploration well placement.

[0048] Preferably, depth-domain migration imaging is performed using TTI, and the output imaging data includes:

[0049] Anisotropic depth-domain migration imaging (TTI) is performed, and after comparing the new and old imaging data, the final result data is output for application.

[0050] According to the present invention, during the iterative optimization of the original imaging velocity model, the offset imaging of the output target line of the original imaging velocity model is not iteratively optimized.

[0051] This invention, based on conventional methods, makes full use of existing well data in the work area to optimize and correct current seismic imaging methods, and comprehensively addresses the uncertainties of conventional seismic imaging.

[0052] The present invention will be described in more detail below through embodiments.

[0053] Example 1:

[0054] like Figure 2As shown, this embodiment proposes a high-precision seismic imaging method for special geological bodies. First, well data from multiple wells in the work area are analyzed and optimized to invert the special geological body and quantify its extent. A seismic model of the special geological body is established, and the fitting imaging factor for the special geological body in this work area is calculated. Second, the fitting imaging factor of the special geological body, the input data of the work area, and the determined velocity model are input, and the model is optimized and iteratively updated. If the CIP gathers in the output results are not fully flattened, the fitting imaging factor is returned for optimization and correction, and the iteration is repeated. Third, if all the CIP gathers in the previous step are flattened and the gathers are in an ideal state, the model is output, and TTI anisotropic depth migration processing is performed. When the migration result meets the accuracy requirements, the final invention result is output. This achieves accurate migration imaging of special geological bodies.

[0055] The specific steps of this method are as follows:

[0056] (1) Multi-well joint modeling of the work area, outputting imaging fitting factors:

[0057] Well data from multiple wells in the work area were analyzed and optimized. Special geological bodies were inverted and their extent quantified. Seismic models of these special geological bodies were established, and the fitting imaging factors for these bodies in the work area were calculated.

[0058] (2) Optimize the model using input data and update iteratively:

[0059] The model is optimized and iteratively updated by inputting imaging factors for specific geological bodies, inputting work area data, and determining a velocity model. If the CIP gather in the output results is not fully flattened, the fitted imaging factors are returned for optimization and correction, and the iteration is repeated.

[0060] (3) Multiscale migration imaging:

[0061] The CIP gathers from the previous step are all flattened. If the gathers are in an ideal state, the model is output and then subjected to TTI anisotropic depth migration processing.

[0062] (4) Output the final imaging data:

[0063] Once the offset results meet the accuracy requirements, the final invention result is output.

[0064] In this embodiment, a 3D seismic survey area with complex surface and subsurface was selected for the experiment; the terrain was mountainous with significant variations; the elevation of the survey area ranged from 600 to 800 meters; 3D seismic acquisition was used in the survey area; the design area was 25m × 25m, the design coverage was 18 (vertical) × 12 (horizontal) = 216 times, and the aspect ratio was 0.66; after high-precision pre-stack preprocessing and conventional depth migration modeling and imaging, joint modeling was performed on multiple well logs in the survey area, such as... Figure 3As shown, initial imaging constraint factors are determined based on the modeling results, such as... Figure 4 As shown; the fitted imaging constraint factor and pre-stack conventional velocity model are used as inputs to optimize and correct the model; then, the migration imaging of the target line is iterated. If the data imaging accuracy does not meet the requirements, the process returns to multi-well joint modeling and re-optimizes the fitted imaging factor, continuously optimizing the data and performing migration imaging quality control; if the quality control results reach the design accuracy, the results are output, and TTI anisotropic migration imaging is performed. After comparing the old and new data, the final result data is output for application, such as... Figure 5 , Figure 6 As shown.

[0065] In this embodiment, the results of this method show that the application effect is quite ideal; this method is not only effective for the target processing area, but also very effective for imaging targets in large desert areas and piedmont zones, and has a better effect on the reuse of old data and the application effect of profiles is good; seismic profiles are also better than other imaging methods; the drilling success rate is increased by about 5-8%, which verifies the feasibility of this method.
