Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of deep gas risk exploration technology, and in particular to methods, devices, equipment and media for predicting volcanic rock reservoirs in deep low-exploration areas. Background Technology

[0002] Deep volcanic natural gas is an important alternative resource for unconventional oil and gas fields worldwide. Existing research and exploration results confirm that deep natural gas reservoirs are mainly composed of volcanic rock reservoirs. Volcanic rock lithology identification and effective reservoir prediction are bottleneck technologies in deep natural gas exploration. This is because deep strata are buried at great depths, and sedimentary compaction is strong, resulting in small differences in wave impedance between volcanic rocks and surrounding rocks, and between different lithologies within the volcanic rock itself. Furthermore, volcanic rocks have a strong shielding effect on seismic waves, leading to weak seismic reflection energy and a low signal-to-noise ratio within the deep Yingcheng Formation volcanic rocks. The fault structure is complex, with both large basement faults and normal and reverse faults, making seismic imaging difficult and obscuring the seismic reflection characteristics of the internal structure of volcanic rock reservoirs. Deep strata contain a variety of lithologies, resulting in complex reservoir rock types. Volcanic rock reservoirs, in particular, are formed by multiple eruptions from multiple volcanoes, causing significant vertical and horizontal variations in volcanic rock facies, making it difficult to identify distribution patterns. The thickness distribution of volcanic rocks varies considerably laterally, making it difficult to accurately compare and quantitatively determine their distribution range in seismic records. Reservoir pore structures are complex, with pores, cavities, and fractures coexisting, further complicating effective reservoir prediction. Lithological identification and effective reservoir prediction of deep volcanic rocks have always been key research topics in geophysics.

[0003] The existing technology of "pre-stack inversion based on volume control modeling" for predicting volcanic reservoirs is suitable for areas with high exploration levels and requires abundant drilling information.

Figure 1-12 As shown, a method for predicting volcanic reservoirs in deep, low-exploration areas includes: Step S01: Obtaining sensitive parameters reflecting lithology or reservoir properties and seismic interface information in the study area; Step S02: Selecting post-stack virtual well constraint inversion based on the sensitive parameters to obtain a low-frequency model of the virtual well's full low-frequency band; Step S03: Establishing a geological model based on the low-frequency model of the full low-frequency band and seismic interface information; Step S04: Characterizing overflow volcanic rocks based on the reflection characteristics of volcanic rocks in the study area using the Laplace operator's frequency-division configuration attributes; Step S05: Extracting configuration attributes of the target layer slice location based on the geological model and the overflow volcanic rock characterization results, and performing low-frequency modeling based on the configuration attribute constraints to obtain a configuration attribute volume-controlled low-frequency model; Step S06: Performing inversion based on the configuration attribute volume-controlled low-frequency model to obtain the predicted volcanic reservoir results in the study area.

[0058] The method for predicting deep, low-exploration volcanic reservoirs provided in this embodiment of the invention specifically includes the following steps:

[0059] Step S01: Obtain sensitive parameters that reflect lithology or reservoir properties and seismic interface information for the study area.

[0060] In this invention, before obtaining the sensitive parameters that can reflect the lithology or reservoir properties of the study area, the sensitive parameters are determined by means of: determining the correlation between the burial depth, regional differences, temperature, pressure, pore shape, pore structure, fluid and lithological influencing factors on the elastic parameters of volcanic rock reservoirs; and selecting the parameter with the highest correlation as the sensitive parameter.

[0061] In this invention, the sensitive parameter is: lithology.

[0062] In this embodiment of the invention, rock physical analysis is the foundation of seismic reservoir prediction. By analyzing the relationship between rock elastic parameters and reservoir physical parameters, sensitive parameters that can better reflect lithology or reservoir physical properties are identified. Different volcanic rocks exhibit significant differences in the threshold values ​​for reservoir elastic parameters. The selection of sensitive reservoir parameters determines the formulation of the inversion scheme and the quantitative analysis of the inversion results.

[0063] The analysis of reservoir logging response characteristics (elastic parameters), especially reservoir velocity characteristics, is one of the important tasks before conducting detailed reservoir inversion. Whether the velocities of reservoirs and non-reservoirs can be distinguished on the curve is the basis for whether reservoir prediction can be made using post-stack inversion.

[0064] The influence of factors such as burial depth, regional differences, temperature, pressure, pore shape, pore structure, fluid, and lithology on the elastic parameters of volcanic reservoirs was analyzed. Specifically, correlation analysis was performed on the correlation coefficients R between burial depth, regional differences, temperature, pressure, pore shape, pore structure, fluid, and lithology and the elastic parameters of volcanic reservoirs. 2 The results show that lithology has the greatest impact on the elastic parameters of volcanic rock reservoirs among the reservoir physical properties.

[0065] Step S02: Based on the sensitive parameters, select post-stack virtual well constraint inversion to obtain the low-frequency model of the virtual well in the full low-frequency band.

[0066] In this invention, the method for selecting post-stack virtual well constraint inversion based on the sensitive parameters to obtain a low-frequency model of the virtual well in the full low-frequency band includes: establishing a preliminary ultra-low frequency impedance low-frequency model based on the sensitive parameters and seismic velocity; and adding seismic inversion key frequency band data obtained by re-integrating the low-frequency band of seismic data to the ultra-low frequency impedance low-frequency model to obtain a low-frequency model in the full low-frequency band.

[0067] In this embodiment of the invention, the low-frequency model is usually established using the tomography velocity constrained by virtual wells. However, the frequency band of this data is usually around 0-3Hz. Based on the multiple integration of seismic data, the frequency band required for inversion of 3-10Hz can be obtained. Therefore, by using the tomography velocity constrained by virtual wells and the seismic multiple integration for joint modeling, the low-frequency model required for pre-stack / post-stack inversion can be established.

[0068] The exploration level in the study area is low and no wells have been revealed. Based on the P-wave impedance (different P-wave impedance ranges reflect different lithologies) sensitive parameters obtained from adjacent well logging obtained in step S01, post-stack virtual well constrained inversion is selected.

[0069] The specific process is as follows: Seven to eight virtual wells are set up in the study area. Based on rock physics analysis, it is known that the elastic parameters of P-wave impedance can reflect different volcanic rock lithologies. A model is established based on P-wave velocity and seismic velocity. A preliminary 0-3Hz ultra-low frequency impedance low-frequency model is obtained based on seismic velocity. The seismic data is re-integrated to obtain the 3-10Hz seismic re-integration low-frequency band. The 3-10Hz seismic re-integration low-frequency band is added to the 0-3Hz ultra-low frequency impedance low-frequency model to obtain the 3-10Hz seismic inversion key frequency band. The velocity low-frequency wave impedance model is fused with the re-integrated relative wave impedance to obtain a low-frequency model covering the entire low-frequency band.

[0070] Step S03: Based on the low-frequency model of the entire low-frequency band and the seismic interface information, establish a geological model.

[0071] In this invention, the method for establishing a geological model based on the low-frequency model of the entire low-frequency band and seismic interface information includes: allocating the virtual well information of the low-frequency model to each layer segment according to the seismic interface information, and establishing the geological model by reasonably interpolating the low-frequency model and the vertical components and weights.

[0072] In this embodiment of the invention, the establishment of the initial virtual well model comprehensively considers various basic geological characteristics such as sedimentary patterns and tectonic morphology, and establishes layers, intralayer structures, and their interrelationships. The establishment process essentially involves optimizing the horizontally varying seismic interface information and virtual well data—that is, the low-frequency virtual well model established in step S02—by allocating vertical components and their weights to each layer according to geological theory (seismic data). Then, through reasonable interpolation of these model parameters—the low-frequency virtual well model data, the vertical components of the allocated layers, and their weights—a geological model reflecting the geological structure is established.

[0073] The specific process is as follows: Based on the established low-frequency model covering the entire low-frequency band, virtual wells are extracted for different sedimentary patterns and structural forms. Then, the horizontally continuously changing seismic interface information and the vertical information reflected by the virtual wells are combined and the model parameters are reasonably interpolated to establish a geological model that reflects the geological structure. This geological model is a three-dimensional geological model.

[0074] Step S04: Based on the reflection characteristics of volcanic rocks in the study area, the volcanic rock mass is characterized using the frequency division configuration property of the Laplace operator.

[0075] In this embodiment of the invention, based on the reflection characteristics of volcanic rocks in the seismic data of the study area, the Laplace operator is selected to perform frequency division configuration attribute calculation on the original seismic data volume, highlighting special anomalous geological bodies and completing the characterization of volcanic rock bodies.

[0076] The method of performing frequency division configuration attribute calculations on the original seismic data volume using the Laplace operator is an algorithm for enhancing contrast at energy abrupt changes. It is more effective than conventional profiles for identifying volcanic rocks, especially crater areas with chaotic reflections. Using the seismic facies identification results of the Laplace volume, i.e. the volcanic rock characterization results, as constraints for reservoir prediction can improve the accuracy of volcanic rock prediction.

[0077] Step S05: Based on the geological model and the characterization results of the overflow volcanic rocks, extract the configuration attributes of the target layer slice location, perform low-frequency modeling based on the configuration attribute constraints, and obtain a configuration attribute volume-controlled low-frequency model.

[0078] In this invention, the method for extracting the configurational attributes of the target layer slice location based on the geological model and the volcanic rock mass characterization results includes: dividing the target layer into several slices based on the geological model and the overflow volcanic rock characterization results, and extracting the configurational attribute plane on each slice.

[0079] In this invention, the method for performing low-frequency modeling based on the configuration attribute constraints to obtain a configuration attribute volume-controlled low-frequency model includes: combining each configuration attribute plane to form a planar phase, combining the planar phases to form a volume-controlled joint constraint, and using the joint constraint to perform low-frequency modeling to obtain the configuration attribute volume-controlled low-frequency model.

[0080] In this embodiment of the invention, the commonly used modeling method is as follows: within a fine stratigraphic framework, sequence units are defined, and then contact relationships between each sequence are established (currently including: top parallel, bottom parallel, top-bottom parallel, pinch-out, etc.), resulting in a sequence volume that can accurately depict the real stratigraphic characteristics. Then, using calibrated well curves under the control of the sequence volume, attribute interpolation is performed to obtain an initial model. Commonly used attribute interpolation methods include Kriging interpolation, inverse distance weighted interpolation, trigonometric function interpolation, and radial basis function interpolation. All of these methods utilize mathematical means for interpolation, and the interpolation results are influenced by adjacent wells and lack geological guidance. Therefore, it is difficult to establish an initial model that conforms to sedimentary patterns.

[0081] Conventional initial model building methods can only guarantee the accuracy of the model at the well point, but cannot guarantee the rationality of the initial model's variations between wells. A high-precision initial model should not only guarantee the accuracy of the model at the well point, but also make the variations between wells as consistent as possible with geological understanding, such as including the impedance background, direction, and boundary information of geological bodies.

[0082] To address this issue, this invention employs a phase-controlled constraint modeling method, incorporating information about geological bodies contained in sedimentary facies (configurational attributes) into the initial model (virtual well model), thereby improving the accuracy and rationality of the initial model and ultimately enhancing the inversion quality.

[0083] The specific process is as follows: Based on the geological model obtained in step S03 and the volcanic rock mass characterization results obtained in step S04, the target layer is extracted into 10 slices according to the geological model, and the configuration attribute planes at each slice location are extracted; then, each type of plane attribute is combined to form a planar phase; multiple planar phases are combined into a volume-controlled joint constraint, and low-frequency modeling is performed using this volume-controlled joint constraint. The low-frequency modeling established by the configuration attribute volume control is consistent with the geological anomaly morphology of the volcanic rock.

[0084] Based on the different sedimentary facies parameters (configurational properties) used during modeling, facies-controlled modeling can be divided into three application scenarios, including:

[0085] If there are significant differences in background values ​​between facies on a slice, i.e., typical bullseye features appear on the slice, then the extracted configuration attribute is the facies background value. This configuration attribute can correct the background value of well curves, achieving similar background values ​​between the same facies and different background values ​​between different facies;

[0086] If the depositional orientation is clear and consistent across the slice, such as in rivers, then the extracted configurational attribute is the depositional orientation. This configurational attribute can be used to control the well interpolation direction using directional kriging, thus incorporating the depositional orientation into the initial model setup.

[0087] If special geological body facies boundaries exist on the slice, such as gravity flows, lacustrine fans, or volcanic rocks, the extracted configuration attribute is the facies boundary. This configuration attribute enables the use of facies boundaries to control well interpolation boundaries, ensuring that well interpolation within the same facies type is used only, without being affected by wells outside the facies.

[0088] Well-free facies control modeling utilizes the high-frequency sequence body on slices to cut sensitive geological anomaly properties (configurational properties) and characterizes multiple planar facies. Each planar facies is constrained to form volume control. This method can finely depict the morphology of non-parallel geological bodies.

[0089] Step S06: Based on the configuration property volume-controlled low-frequency model, perform inversion to obtain the prediction results of volcanic reservoirs in the study area.

[0090] In this embodiment of the invention, an inversion is performed based on the configuration property volume-controlled low-frequency model obtained in step S05 to obtain the prediction result of volcanic rock reservoirs. This inversion result is faithful to seismic data and clearly depicts the volcanic rocks.

[0091] In this embodiment of the invention, the implementation process of the method of the present invention is described in detail, taking the prediction of volcanic rock reservoirs in the Caoyingcheng Formation of the Puxiwa in the Gulong fault depression of the Songliao Basin in a certain study area as an example.

[0092] The overall exploration level of the Gulong fault depression is relatively low. Currently, only 10 wells have been drilled to the protrusion. The Puxi depression is located in the southern part of the Gulong fault depression, and there are no wells drilled in the work area.

[0093] There were no drilled wells within the study area, but data from six drilled wells in neighboring areas were collected. Figure 2 The image shows a cross-sectional view of gamma, P-wave impedance, resistivity, and neutron porosity from six wells in the Yingcheng Formation in the adjacent area. Figure 2 As can be seen from the above, the impedance can generally distinguish volcanic rocks well, with a threshold value of 14200 g / cc*m / s.

[0094] Low-frequency models are typically established using virtual well-constrained tomography velocities, but the frequency band of this data is usually around 0-3Hz. However, the frequency band of 3-10Hz necessary for inversion can be obtained based on seismic data multiple integration. Therefore, by using virtual well-constrained tomography velocities and seismic multiple integration for joint modeling, the low-frequency model necessary for pre-stack / post-stack inversion can be established.

[0095] The initial model of the virtual well needs to comprehensively consider various basic geological characteristics such as sedimentary patterns and tectonic morphology, and establish the layers, intra-layer structures, and their interrelationships. In practice, this involves optimizing the horizontally varying seismic interface information and virtual well data according to geological theory, allocating the virtual well information to the vertical components and weights of each layer, and then using reasonable interpolation of these model parameters to establish a geological model reflecting the geological structure. The relative relationships between the six adjacent wells referenced in this study and the study area are as follows: Figure 3 As shown, the study area is 300 km². 2 Located in the northern part of the adjacent area, three low-frequency model profiles were established through six wells to roughly represent the characteristics of the work area. Seven virtual wells were extracted from the profiles, namely the six dots in the box in the figure. Figure 4 To pass through the second section (i.e. Figure 3 Figure 2 shows the pure wave seismic profile and the low-frequency model profile of Figure 2 (No. 2). Figure A shows the pure wave seismic profile, and Figure B shows the low-frequency model profile.

[0096] Based on the reflection characteristics of volcanic rocks in the study area, the Laplace operator frequency division configuration attribute was selected to characterize the volcanic rock body. This method is an algorithm for enhancing contrast at energy abrupt changes, and it is more effective than conventional profiles in identifying volcanic rocks, especially crater areas with chaotic reflections. The seismic facies identification results of the Laplace body are used as constraints for reservoir prediction, thereby improving the accuracy of volcanic rock prediction.

[0097] like Figure 5 The images show the seismic pure wave profile, configuration attribute profile, and configuration + frequency division attribute profile. By comparison, it can be seen that the configuration attribute can better characterize the external shape and internal structure of the volcano, with clear features, enhanced energy, and weakened energy of the surrounding rock.

[0098] The arc length, energy, configuration, root mean square, and entropy attributes of the Yingcheng Formation were extracted respectively, such as... Figure 6 The diagram shows the planar distribution characteristics of different properties. By comparison, it can be seen that configurational properties can better characterize the planar morphology of volcanic rocks.

[0099] After selecting the configuration attributes, divide the city building group into ten equal parts, numbered from bottom to top as slice 1, 2, 3, 4...10, as follows. Figure 7 The image shows a comparison between the pure wave profile at position 8 of the connecting line slice and the configuration frequency division attribute plane profile. It can be seen that the configuration attribute can well characterize the shape and internal structure of the volcano, with clear features, laying a good foundation for the next step of phased modeling.

[0100] There are no wells in this study area, and the phase control modeling process is divided into two steps: 1. Divide the target layer into 10 slices and extract the configuration attribute planes at each slice location, such as... Figure 8 As shown; 2. The attribute volume control implementation process involves forming a planar phase from each planar attribute, and combining multiple planar phases to form a volume control, as shown. Figure 9 As shown.

[0101] By utilizing volume control constraints and virtual well modeling, a low-frequency model was obtained, such as... Figure 10 As shown, Figure A is a low-frequency model established by conventional modeling methods, and Figure B is a low-frequency model established by configuration attribute volume control. By comparing with conventional modeling methods, it can be seen that configuration attribute volume control modeling is consistent with the geological anomaly morphology of volcanic rocks.

[0102] Based on the aforementioned phase control modeling of the well-free region, an inversion was performed, yielding the following inversion results: Figure 11 As shown, Figure A is a conventional inversion profile, and Figure B is a profile obtained by configuration attribute-constrained impedance inversion. By comparison, it can be seen that the configuration attribute-constrained impedance inversion profile provides a clearer depiction of the shape and contour of the volcanic rock.

[0103] Based on the rock physics analysis threshold value, the thickness map of the Yingcheng Formation volcanic rocks was extracted, as follows: Figure 12 The diagram shows the planar thickness of the Yingcheng Formation volcanic rocks.

No. 2 is relatively thin, with an area of ​​26.5 km². 2 The five volcanic rock masses have a cumulative area of ​​132.8 km². 2 This provides strong support for the optimal selection of well locations.

[0111] Over the past decade, with advancements in seismic processing and imaging technology, the quality of deep seismic data has significantly improved. Through continuous exploration and research, a reservoir prediction technology system centered on "volume-controlled modeling and pre-stack inversion" has been gradually formed for areas with high exploration levels, providing technical support for the effective development of volcanic gas reservoirs. Since 2019, the focus of volcanic exploration has shifted to "four new areas," namely, risk exploration of new fault depressions and new strata of large volcanic gas reservoirs. These areas have relatively low exploration levels, and there is an urgent need to address the challenges of predicting deep, unexplored volcanic reservoirs and the difficulty in predicting reservoirs with few well-revealed drilling findings.

[0112] This invention, based on rock physical analysis, utilizes configurational attribute constraints and 2D / 3D joint modeling to extract virtual wells for phasing control modeling, thereby achieving spatial distribution characterization of irregular geological bodies and volcanic rocks. Its key technologies include three points: ① how to extract virtual wells for the local area using neighboring wells; ② how to extract attributes sensitive to volcanic rocks for characterizing volcanic rock bodies; and ③ how to establish attribute-controlled low-frequency models using virtual wells and sensitive attribute volumes.

[0113] This invention considers the influence of the entire low-frequency band and incorporates the low-frequency band of seismic multiple integrals to obtain the 3-10Hz key frequency band for seismic inversion. It integrates the low-frequency wave impedance model of velocity with the relative wave impedance of multiple integrals, and uses configuration attribute constraints and 2D / 3D joint modeling to extract virtual wells for phase control modeling to realize the spatial distribution characterization of irregular geological bodies. The low-frequency model is faithful to the seismic data, and the characterization of special geological bodies is clearer, which plays an important supporting role in the deployment of risk wells in oil fields.
