Description

Technical Field

[0001] The embodiments of the present invention relate to the field of geophysical exploration technology, and in particular to a seismic full-wavefield simulation method based on optimized phase shift. Background Technology

[0002] When seismic waves propagate from high-velocity strata or strong-impedance interfaces, they undergo multiple reflections between these interfaces. Multiples refer to seismic waves reflected from the subsurface medium that, upon reaching a strong-impedance surface, undergo at least one downward reflection at the surface and then return underground after a certain propagation path. Multiples typically have short periods and high orders, making them difficult to distinguish from primary waves in terms of energy. Therefore, in seismic data processing, it is necessary to simulate not only the primary reflection wavefield but also the multiple wavefield; otherwise, the final imaging results will be affected. Existing techniques, such as the split-step phase-shift method, can simulate seismic waves to some extent. By dividing the subsurface medium vertically into several approximately invariant thin layers, a one-way wave propagation operator is obtained. During propagation, the background velocity of the subsurface medium and inter-layer velocity perturbations are combined to simulate the primary reflection wave. However, this method can only simulate the primary reflection wavefield in three-dimensional space and cannot simulate the entire seismic wavefield. Therefore, this method cannot completely simulate the entire seismic wavefield. Summary of the Invention

The various embodiments can be combined with and referenced by each other without contradiction.

[0049] As mentioned above, in order to solve the technical problem, this invention proposes a seismic full-wavefield simulation method based on optimized phase shift.

[0050] The implementation details of the above method are described in detail below through examples. The following content is only for the convenience of understanding the implementation details and is not necessary for implementing this solution.

[0051] Example 1:

[0052] like Figure 1 As shown in the figure, this embodiment provides a seismic full-wavefield simulation method based on optimized phase shift, which mainly includes the following steps.

[0053] Step 1: First, construct the source equation for the seismic waves.

[0054] The expression for the source equation is:

[0055]

[0056] Where T is the propagation period, f is the peak frequency of the earthquake source, and A is the amplitude of the earthquake source. Let be the direction of propagation of the earthquake source in space. When the source equation propagates upwards, it is: When propagating downwards

[0057] Step 2: At a certain imaging point at depth z, construct a wavefield function to simulate the propagation process of seismic waves. The expression for the wavefield function is:

[0058]

[0059] Where z is the depth, P A (f) represents the wave field. This is the Green's function.

[0060] In an isotropic medium, the above wave field function can be rewritten as an expression related to amplitude and phase:

[0061]

[0062] Where j is the imaginary part of the seismic signal, k is the wave number, r is the propagation path length of the seismic wave, S is the surface element for calculating the integral, and φ is the phase of the seismic signal.

[0063] Step 3: Set the number of phase shift steps N, and construct the N-step phase shift wave equation. Typically, N = 1, 2, 3, or 4.

[0064] The expression for the phase-shift wave equation is:

[0065]

[0066] Step 4: Construct the up-going and down-going waves of the source wave field (i.e., the up-going and down-going wave fields of the first propagation), where:

[0067] The expression for an upward wave is:

[0068]

[0069] The expression for the downward wave is:

[0070]

[0071] Step 5: Using the upwave and downwave of the source wave field as input data, construct the upwave field and downwave field of the secondary propagation.

[0072] in:

[0073] The expression for the ascending wave field is:

[0074]

[0075] The expression for the downlink wave field is:

[0076]

[0077] Step Six: Superimpose the above four wavefield results to obtain the full wavefield simulation result.

[0078] The full wave field expression is:

[0079]

[0080] Where P represents the full wave field. For a single propagation of the upward wave field, For a single propagation of the downlink wave field, For the secondary propagation of the uplink wave field, This is the downlink wave field for secondary propagation.

[0081] Example 2

[0082] The technical solution of the present invention and its beneficial effects will be further illustrated below with a specific example.

[0083] Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the velocity model is shown. The velocity model is used to simulate the velocity of the actual ocean, where the first layer is the water layer with a velocity of 1500 m / s, and there is a high-velocity anomalous geological body below.

[0084] Figure 3 The results of generating a reflected wave using this method are shown. The wavefield results show that the calculated reflection results are consistent with the theoretical values, and the amplitude values ​​are correct.

[0085] Figure 4 The results of the full-wavefield simulation are shown. The simulation results reveal that the simulation not only contains effective information about the primary wave but also information about multiple reflections, and the temporal and spatial locations of these multiple reflections are consistent with theoretical values.

[0086] This embodiment illustrates that when seismic waves propagate from high-velocity strata or strong impedance interfaces, the wave propagation exhibits multiple reflections between the interfaces. This invention proposes a novel method specifically for simulating the full seismic wavefield. This method constructs a source equation, establishes a phase-shift propagation operator, builds a wavefield, sets the phase-shift step number, and then generates primary propagation up-wavefields and down-wavefields at each depth interface. Based on these primary propagation up-wavefields and down-wavefields, secondary propagation up-wavefields and down-wavefields are calculated. Finally, the primary and secondary propagation up-wavefields and down-wavefields are superimposed to obtain the final full seismic wavefield. Compared to traditional methods, this proposed method for simulating the full seismic wavefield achieves simulation of both primary and multiple reflections of seismic waves, resulting in a more accurate simulated wavefield.
