Here, the term integral feature of seismograms refers to feature which may depict the shape of the whole seismograms. However, unlike some previous efforts which completely abandon the DIAL approach, i.e., signal detection, phase identifi- cation, association, and event localization, and seek to use envelope cross-correlation to detect seismic events directly, our technique keeps following the DIAL approach, but in addition to detect signals corresponding to individual seismic phases, it also detects continuous wave-trains and explores their feature for phase-type identification and signal association. More concrete ideas about how to define wave-trains and combine them with various detections, as well as how to measure and utilize their feature in the seismic data processing were expatiated in the paper. This approach has been applied to the routine data processing by us for years, and test results for a 16 days＇ period using data from the Xinjiang seismic station network were presented. The automatic processing results have fairly low false and missed event rate simultaneously, showing that the new technique has good application prospects for improvement of the automatic seismic data processing.展开更多

In a brief description of the basic principles of anti-disturbance and high-resolution shallow seismic exploration, the stress is put on the excitation of seismic sources, the performance of digital seismographs, receiving mode and conditions, geometry as well as data acquisition, processing and interpretation in the anti-disturbance and high-resolution shallow seismic exploration of urban active faults. The study indicates that a controlled seismic source with a linear or nonlinear frequency-conversion scanning function and the relevant seismographs must be used in data acquisition, as well as working methods for small group interval, small offset, multi-channel receiving, short-array and high-frequency detectors for receiving are used. Attention should be paid to the application of techniques for static correction of refraction, noise suppressing, high-precision analysis of velocity, wavelet compressing, zero-phasing of wavelet and pre-stacking migration to data processing and interpretation. Finally, some cases of anti-disturbance and high-resolution shallow seismic exploration of urban active faults are present in the paper.展开更多

First, we describe the basic theory of multi-scaled morphology image decomposition of exploration seismic waves; second, we illustrate how to use multi-scaled morphology for seismic data processing using two real examples. The first example demonstrates suppressing the surface waves in pre-stack seismic records using multi-scaled morphology decomposition and reconstitution and the other example demonstrates filtering different interference waves on the seismic record. Multi-scaled morphology filtering separates signal from noise by the detailed differences of the wave shapes. The successful applications suggest that multi-scaled morphology has a promising application in seismic data processing.展开更多

The paucity of well data and the great variability of the sedimentary microfacies make it difficult to identify and predict the distribution patterns of the main gas reservoir, and have seriously hindered further exploration and development of the gas field. Therefore, making full use of the available seismic data is extremely important for predicting the spatial distribution of sedimentary microfacies when constructing three-dimensional reservoir models. A suitable reservoir modeling strategy or workflow controlled by sedimentary microfacies and seismic data has been developed. Five types of seismic attributes were selected to correlate with the sand percentage, and the root mean square （RMS） amplitude performed the best. The relation between the RMS amplitude and the sand percentage was used to construct a reservoir sand distribution map. Three types of main sedimentary microfacies were identified： debris channels, fan lobes, and natural levees. Using constraints from the sedimentary microfacies boundaries, a sedimentary microfacies model was constructed using the sequential indicator and assigned value simulation methods. Finally, reservoir models of physical properties for sandy debris flow deposits controlled by sedimentary microfacies and seismic inversion data were established. Property cutoff values were adopted because the sedimentary microfacies and the reservoir properties from well-logging interpretation are intrinsically different. Selection of appropriate reservoir property cutoffs is a key step in reservoir modeling when using simulation methods based on sedimentary microfacies control. When the abnormal data are truncated and the reservoir properties probability distribution fits a normal distribution, microfacies-controlled reservoir property models are more reliable than those obtained from the sequence Gauss simulation method. The cutoffs for effective porosity of the debris channel, fan lobe, and natural levee facies were 0.2, 0.09, and 0.12, respectively; the corresponding average effective porosities were 0.24, 0.13, and 0.15. The proposed modeling method makes full use of seismic attributes and seismic inversion data, and also makes the property data of single-well depositional microfacies more conformable to a normal distribution with geological significance. Thus, the method allows use of more reliable input data when we construct a model of a sandy debris flow.展开更多

The results reveal that FRFT is more effective and suitable for application in seismic exploration than WVD.展开更多

Therefore, geophysicists consistently strive to acquire higher resolution seismic images in petroleum exploration. Although there have been successful applications of conventional signal processing and machine learning for post-stack seismic resolution enhancement,there is limited reference to the seismic applications of the recent emergence and rapid development of generative artificial intelligence. Hence, we propose to apply diffusion models, among the most popular generative models, to enhance seismic resolution. Specifically, we apply the classic diffusion model—denoising diffusion probabilistic model(DDPM), conditioned on the seismic data in low resolution, to reconstruct corresponding high-resolution images. Herein the entire scheme is referred to as SeisResoDiff. To provide a comprehensive and clear understanding of SeisResoDiff, we introduce the basic theories of diffusion models and detail the optimization objective's derivation with the aid of diagrams and algorithms. For implementation, we first propose a practical workflow to acquire abundant training data based on the generated pseudo-wells. Subsequently, we apply the trained model to both synthetic and field datasets, evaluating the results in three aspects: the appearance of seismic sections and slices in the time domain, frequency spectra, and comparisons with the synthetic data using real well-logging data at the well locations. The results demonstrate not only effective seismic resolution enhancement,but also additional denoising by the diffusion model. Experimental comparisons indicate that training the model on noisy data, which are more realistic, outperforms training on clean data. The proposed scheme demonstrates superiority over some conventional methods in high-resolution reconstruction and denoising ability, yielding more competitive results compared to our previous research.展开更多

Selection of appropriate reservoir property cutoffs is a key step in reservoir modeling when using simulation methods based on sedimentary microfacies control. When the abnormal data are truncated and the reservoir properties probability distribution fits a normal distribution, microfacies-controlled reservoir property models are more reliable than those obtained from the sequence Gauss simulation method. The cutoffs for effective porosity of the debris channel, fan lobe, and natural levee facies were 0.2, 0.09, and 0.12, respectively; the corresponding average effective porosities were 0.24, 0.13, and 0.15. The proposed modeling method makes full use of seismic attributes and seismic inversion data, and also makes the property data of single-well depositional microfacies more conformable to a normal distribution with geological significance. Thus, the method allows use of more reliable input data when we construct a model of a sandy debris flow.
文摘Geologists interpret seismic data to understand subsurface properties and subsequently to locate underground hydrocarbon resources.Channels are among the most important geological features interpreters analyze to locate petroleum reservoirs.However,manual channel picking is both time consuming and tedious.Moreover,similar to any other process dependent on human intervention,manual channel picking is error prone and inconsistent.To address these issues,automatic channel detection is both necessary and important for efficient and accurate seismic interpretation.Modern systems make use of real-time image processing techniques for different tasks.Automatic channel detection is a combination of different mathematical methods in digital image processing that can identify streaks within the images called channels that are important to the oil companies.In this paper,we propose an innovative automatic channel detection algorithm based on machine learning techniques.The new algorithm can identify channels in seismic data/images fully automatically and tremendously increases the efficiency and accuracy of the interpretation process.The algorithm uses deep neural network to train the classifier with both the channel and non-channel patches.We provide a field data example to demonstrate the performance of the new algorithm.The training phase gave a maximum accuracy of 84.6%for the classifier and it performed even better in the testing phase,giving a maximum accuracy of 90%.
文摘Data processing is a basic and crucial factor in seismic exploration,which can influence the effect of subsequent processing directly. Thus the selection of appropriate method for data processing is one of the most important tasks throughout the work. By simulating,the authors analyze and compare Fractional Fourier Transform( FRFT) and Wigner-Ville distribution( WVD),then summarize the similarities and advantages and disadvantages of the two methods. The results reveal that FRFT is more effective and suitable for application in seismic exploration than WVD.

文摘As seismic signals propagate underground,the subsurface media absorb high-frequency components,decreasing seismic resolution and limiting the identification and characterization of thin reservoirs.To address the limitation,this paper proposes a multichannel spectral fitting(MSF)method.The MSF method aims to enhance seismic resolution by considering the spectral characteristics and the correlations between adjacent seismic traces.The key to the MSF method involves utilizing the amplitude spectrum of the attenuated Ricker wavelet to construct an objective function for spectral fitting,leading to improved seismic resolution.Furthermore,the MSF method establishes the correlation between adjacent seismic traces as a constraint to stably solve the target parameters based on the entire seismic spectrum,which helps obtain horizontally consistent and more realistic seismic signals.Synthetic and field seismic examples demonstrate that the proposed method not only provides higher-resolution seismic signals but also reveals more fine details of thin reservoirs compared to the time-variant spectral whitening method.It is concluded that the MSF method is a promising tool for seismic signal processing.

文摘The use of blended acquisition technology in marine seismic exploration has the advantages of high acquisition efficiency and low exploration costs.However,during acquisition,the primary source may be disturbed by adjacent sources,resulting in blended noise that can adversely affect data processing and interpretation.Therefore,the de-blending method is needed to suppress blended noise and improve the quality of subsequent processing.Conventional de-blending methods,such as denoising and inversion methods,encounter challenges in parameter selection and entail high computational costs.In contrast,deep learning-based de-blending methods demonstrate reduced reliance on manual intervention and provide rapid calculation speeds post-training.In this study,we propose a Uformer network using a nonoverlapping window multihead attention mechanism designed for de-blending blended data in the common shot domain.We add the depthwise convolution to the feedforward network to improve Uformer’s ability to capture local context information.The loss function comprises SSIM and L1 loss.Our test results indicate that the Uformer outperforms convolutional neural networks and traditional denoising methods across various evaluation metrics,thus highlighting the effectiveness and advantages of Uformer in de-blending blended data.

文摘High resolution of post-stack seismic data assists in better interpretation of subsurface structures as well as high accuracy of impedance inversion. Therefore, geophysicists consistently strive to acquire higher resolution seismic images in petroleum exploration. Although there have been successful applications of conventional signal processing and machine learning for post-stack seismic resolution enhancement,there is limited reference to the seismic applications of the recent emergence and rapid development of generative artificial intelligence. Hence, we propose to apply diffusion models, among the most popular generative models, to enhance seismic resolution. Specifically, we apply the classic diffusion model—denoising diffusion probabilistic model(DDPM), conditioned on the seismic data in low resolution, to reconstruct corresponding high-resolution images. Herein the entire scheme is referred to as SeisResoDiff. To provide a comprehensive and clear understanding of SeisResoDiff, we introduce the basic theories of diffusion models and detail the optimization objective's derivation with the aid of diagrams and algorithms. For implementation, we first propose a practical workflow to acquire abundant training data based on the generated pseudo-wells. Subsequently, we apply the trained model to both synthetic and field datasets, evaluating the results in three aspects: the appearance of seismic sections and slices in the time domain, frequency spectra, and comparisons with the synthetic data using real well-logging data at the well locations. The results demonstrate not only effective seismic resolution enhancement,but also additional denoising by the diffusion model. Experimental comparisons indicate that training the model on noisy data, which are more realistic, outperforms training on clean data. The proposed scheme demonstrates superiority over some conventional methods in high-resolution reconstruction and denoising ability, yielding more competitive results compared to our previous research.

文摘A rapidly deployable dense seismic monitoring system which is capable of transmitting acquired data in real time and analyzing data automatically is crucial in seismic hazard mitigation after a major earthquake.However,it is rather difficult for current seismic nodal stations to transmit data in real time for an extended period of time,and it usually takes a great amount of time to process the acquired data manually.To monitor earthquakes in real time flexibly,we develop a mobile integrated seismic monitoring system consisting of newly developed nodal units with 4G telemetry and a real-time AI-assisted automatic data processing workflow.The integrated system is convenient for deployment and has been successfully applied in monitoring the aftershocks of the Yangbi M_(S) 6.4 earthquake occurred on May 21,2021 in Yangbi County,Dali,Yunnan in southwest China.The acquired seismic data are transmitted almost in real time through the 4G cellular network,and then processed automat-ically for event detection,positioning,magnitude calculation and source mechanism inversion.From tens of seconds to a couple of minutes at most,the final seismic attributes can be presented remotely to the end users through the integrated system.From May 27 to June 17,the real-time system has detected and located 7905 aftershocks in the Yangbi area before the internal batteries exhausted,far more than the catalog provided by China Earthquake Networks Center using the regional permanent stations.The initial application of this inte-grated real-time monitoring system is promising,and we anticipate the advent of a new era for Real-time Intelligent Array Seismology(RIAS),for better monitoring and understanding the subsurface dynamic pro-cesses caused by Earth's internal forces as well as anthropogenic activities.
文摘The Lower Cambrian Longwangmiao Fm gas reservoir in the GaoshitieMoxi area,the Sichuan Basin,is a super giant monoblock marine carbonate gas reservoir with its single size being the largest in China.The key to the realization of high and stable production gas wells in this gas reservoir is to identify accurately high-permeability zones where there are dissolved pores or dissolved pores are superimposed with fractures.However,high quality dolomite reservoirs are characterized by large burial depth and strong heterogeneity,so reservoir prediction is of difficult.In this paper,related seismic researches were carried out and supporting technologies were developed as follows.First,a geologic model was built after an analysis of the existing data and forward modeling was carried out to establish a reservoir seismic response model.Second,by virtue of well-oriented amplitude processing technology,spherical diffusion compensation factor was obtained based on VSP well logging data and the true amplitude of seismic data was recovered.Third,the resolution of deep seismic data was improved by using the welloriented high-resolution frequency-expanding technology and prestack time migration data of high quality was acquired.And fourth,multiple shoal facies reservoirs were traced by using the global automatic seismic interpretation technology which is based on stratigraphic model,multiple reservoirs which are laterally continuous and vertically superimposed could be predicted,and the areal distribution of high quality reservoirs could be described accurately and efficiently.By virtue of the supporting technologies,drilling trajectory is positioned accurately,and the deployed development wells all have high yield.These technologies also promote the construction of a modern supergiant gas field of tens of billions of cubic meters.
