A method of seismic meme inversion and its application

Abstract

Under the condition of thin interbeds with great lateral changes in terrestrial basins, a seismic meme inversion method is established based on the analysis of seismic sedimentology technology. The relationship between seismic waveform and high-frequency well logs is established through dynamic clustering of seismic waveform to improve the vertical and horizontal resolution of inversion results; meanwhile, by constructing the Bayesian inversion framework of different seismic facies, the real facies controlled inversion is realized. The forward model verification results show that the seismic meme inversion can realize precise prediction of 3 m thick thin interbeds, proving the rationality and high precision of the method. The application in the Daqing placanticline shows that the seismic meme inversion could identify 2 m thin interbeds, and the coincidence rates of inversion results and drilling data were more than 80%. The seismic meme inversion method can improve the accuracy of reservoir prediction and provides a useful mean for thin interbeds prediction in terrestrial basins.
