基于照明补偿的单程波最小二乘偏移

最小二乘偏移是一种基于反射地震数据与地下反射率间线性关系而建立起来的地震数据线性反演方法,相比常规偏移成像具有更好的保幅性能.本文提出了一种基于照明补偿的单程波最小二乘偏移方法,首先利用单程波方程的稳定Born近似广义屏波场传播算子构建反射地震数据与地下反射率间的线性算子,然后再应用线性最优化方法求解最小二乘偏移所对应的线性反问题.在迭代求解最优化问题的过程中,以地震波场的地下照明强度作为迭代反演的预条件算子加快迭代的收敛速度.单程波传播过程中考虑了速度分界面产生的透射效应,并用单极震源代替常规偏移中的偶极震源.把本文提出的方法应用于层状理论模型和Marmosi模型地震数据的数值试验中均取得了理想的结果.     

True-amplitude migration of 2D synthetic data1

True-amplitude (TA) migration, which is a Kirchhoff-type modified weighted diffraction stack, recovers (possibly) complex angle-dependent reflection coefficients which are important for amplitude-versus-offset (AVO) inversion. The method can be implemented using existing prestack or post-stack Kirchhoff migration and fast Green's function computation programs. Here, it is applied to synthetic single-shot and constant-offset seismic data that include post-critical reflections (complex reflection coefficients) and caustics. Comparisons of the amplitudes of the TA migration image with theoretical reflection coefficients show that the (possibly complex) angle-dependent reflection coefficients are correctly estimated.     

基于多网格的频率域全波形反演(英文)

频率域全波形反演虽然克服了时间方向上的局部极小值问题,但是地下介质的复杂性使其在空间域仍然存在局部极小值缺陷。在优化梯度法基础上,本文采用预条件双共轭梯度稳定算法和多重网格方法计算反演中的波场传播和目标函数的梯度,在保证计算速度的同时,减小计算机内存的消耗。频率域波形反演和多重网格的多尺度性质有效改善问题极小值缺陷,加快反演的收敛速度。以局部非均匀的三孔模型和Marmousi模型的数值模拟结果验证了该算法的有效性。     

地震逆散射波场和算子的谱分解

本文对地震逆散射的研究,旨在于为抑制层间多次波和地震波场多重散射对一次反射干扰效应提供理论依据.这对薄互层地层滤波的高频恢复、保幅弹性反演、衍射地震勘探及海洋地震勘探中的干扰消除皆具重要意义.本文基于上下行波分解及弹性波互易定理,导出横向变速介质条件下线性预测算子的表达式和反射数据的广义谱分解方程. 文中先由上覆地层广义反射透射矩阵的元素定义线性预测算子,并将其表示成一系列单程波算子的线性组合,之后将横向变速介质条件下线性预测方程表达为反射数据与线性预测算子及其逆的乘积. 对该方程的求解可获得上覆地层的线性预测算子,从而可借以求出相应的反射透射算子. 本文先将水平层状介质条件下垂直入射的一维线性预测方程推广到斜入射的情况,以此为参照,导出横向非均匀介质条件下反射数据的地震逆散射广义谱分解方程.文中也揭示了单程波地震逆散射算子、反射透射算子的性态.本文还针对水平层状介质条件,给出斜入射的数值结果.     

基于耦合反射/透射系数单程波传播算子的地震波模拟研究

单程波近似实际上是一种多次前向散射和单次后向散射近似.利用单程波近似来描述波传播可以极大地节省地震数值模拟的计算时间和内存,实现地震波长距离传播模拟和三维地震模拟快速计算.本文基于单程波近似和波动积分方程的分离变量逼近,从广义Lippmann-Schwinger波动积分方程推导出耦合反射/透射系数的单程波传播算子.该算子由两部分构成：分离变量Fourier单程波传播算子和薄板间的反射/透射系数表达.前者将常规的Fourier分裂步单程波传播算子(SSF)推广适应横向强速度变化介质和大角度传播波场.后者是利用垂直波数来表示反射/透射系数,自然耦合到波场传播的计算过程中,其为地质界面倾角的隐式表达,精确描述振幅随入射角的变化,能适应任意复杂的模型.通过两个数值算例和一个实际地质模型的计算,本文将该方法和边界元法进行了比较,结果表明：在算例给出的介质横向速度变化情况下,本文提出的方法在相位和振幅方面与全波数值方法基本吻合.     

Full‐wavefield migration: using surface and internal multiples in imaging

Multiple scattering is usually ignored in migration algorithms, although it is a genuine part of the physical reflection response. When properly included, multiples can add to the illumination of the subsurface, although their crosstalk effects are removed. Therefore, we introduce full‐wavefield migration. It includes all multiples and transmission effects in deriving an image via an inversion approach. Since it tries to minimize the misfit between modeled and observed data, it may be considered a full waveform inversion process. However, full‐wavefield migration involves a forward modelling process that uses the estimated seismic image (i.e., the reflectivities) to generate the modelled full wavefield response, whereas a smooth migration velocity model can be used to describe the propagation effects. This separation of modelling in terms of scattering and propagation is not easily achievable when finite‐difference or finite‐element modelling is used. By this separation, a more linear inversion problem is obtained. Moreover, during the forward modelling, the wavefields are computed separately in the incident and scattered directions, which allows the implementation of various imaging conditions, such as imaging reflectors from below, and avoids low‐frequency image artefacts, such as typically observed during reverse‐time migration. The full wavefield modelling process also has the flexibility to image directly the total data (i.e., primaries and multiples together) or the primaries and the multiples separately. Based on various numerical data examples for the 2D and 3D cases, the advantages of this methodology are demonstrated.     

表驱三维角度域Kirchhoff叠前时间偏移成像方法

针对传统Kirchhoff叠前时间偏移方法的一些不足,以及振幅随入射角、方位角变化(AVA/AVAZ)分析的需要,本文提出一种基于射线理论的三维叠前时间偏移角度域成像方法.它通过横向均匀介质中稳健的射线追踪建立单程波走时和传播角度的数值表,然后在此基础上估算反射波双程走时以及在界面处传播的方位角和入射角,最后基于脉冲响应叠加原理获得三维构造图像和方位\|角度域共成像点道集.与传统方法不同之处在于,上述过程均考虑了地震波在垂向变速介质中的射线弯曲效应和三维传播特征,有利于准确提取随入射角和方位角变化的振幅和时差信息.理论模型合成数据和实际地震资料测试结果展示了方法的优越性与实用性.     

声波介质一次散射波场高斯束Born正演

Born正演是一种常用的地震波场正演模拟方法,也是线性化地震反演的理论基础.在实际应用时,Born正演通常结合常规的地震射线方法进行实现.为了克服常规地震射线方法的弊端,并且保证地震波场的模拟精度和计算效率,本文提出了一种基于高斯束的一阶散射波场Born正演方法.该方法分为两个环节:首先,我们利用高斯束的走时和振幅信息将地下散射点处的反射率映射为地表束中心位置处的局部平面波;然后,我们利用逆倾斜叠加将局部平面波转化为接收点处的时空域散射波场.在具体的实施过程中,我们提出一种以wavelet-bank方式实现的局部平面波合成方法,同现有的算法相比,可以在保持计算精度的同时,大大减少计算时间;此外,我们还利用最速下降法优化了高斯束的迭代循环过程,进一步提高了Born正演的计算效率.两个模型的应用效果证明,本文所提出的高斯束Born正演方法可以精确、高效的实现声波介质一次散射波场的正演模拟,为三维大规模地震波场的正演问题提供了一种切实可行的实现方案.     

Stacking angle‐domain common‐image gathers for normalization of illumination

Unequal illumination of the subsurface highly impacts the quality of seismic imaging. Different image points receive different folds of reflection‐angle illumination, which can be caused by irregular acquisition or by wave propagation in complex media. Illumination problems can deteriorate amplitudes in migrated images. To address this problem, we present a method of stacking angle‐domain common‐image gathers, in which we use local similarity with soft thresholding to determine the folds of local illumination. Normalization by local similarity regularizes local illumination of reflection angles for each image point of the subsurface model. This approach compensates for irregular illumination by selective stacking in the image space, regardless of the cause of acquisition or propagation irregularities. Additional migration is not required because the methodology is implemented in the reflection angle domain after migration. We use two synthetic examples to demonstrate that our method can normalize migration amplitudes and effectively suppress migration artefacts.

基于单程波方程的角度域保幅偏移(英文)

传统叠前深度偏移只能够提供地下的构造信息,但工业界在需要构造信息的同时还要与地下界面反射系数成比例的振幅信息。最近几年,基于单程波方程的保幅叠前深度偏移算法有了一定的发展,但是,基于炮域、单程波的保幅型叠前深度偏移必须应用反褶积型的成像条件,这种成像条件在构造复杂、速度变化剧烈的地区会出现不稳定现象。基于角度域的保幅深度偏移克服了这一不稳定性缺点的同时,还域的保幅深度偏移,模型和实际资料的试算分析验证该思路方法的正确性和有效性。     

共反射角叠前偏移成像研究及应用

共偏移距道集已被广泛地应用于地震速度建模及振幅随偏移距变化(AVO)的研究中,但复杂构造及射线多路径产生的共偏移距道集不保幅性等一系列缺陷给AVO研究带来很大的困难.共反射角道集包含有能反映地下速度和岩性变化的信息,更有利于速度模型优化、地震振幅属性分析及地下岩性和断裂的研究.本文通过研究共反射角深度偏移方法和理论,完善了基于目标的共反射角深度偏移技术,提出了获得相对保幅共反射角道集方法.该方法克服了共偏移距域道集在复杂介质中遇到的困难,更能有效地反映波场和地质结构方面的信息.通过理论模型数据进行了试算,并采用实际地震数据对此方法进行了验证,在陡倾角成像方面取得较好效果.     

Simultaneous joint migration inversion for high-resolution imaging/inversion of time-lapse seismic datasets

The current time-lapse practice is to exactly repeat well-sampled acquisition geometries to mitigate acquisition effects on the time-lapse differences. In order to relax the rigid requirements on acquisition effects, we propose simultaneous joint migration inversion as an effective time-lapse tool for reservoir monitoring, which combines a joint time-lapse data processing strategy with the joint migration inversion method. Joint migration inversion is a full-wavefield inversion method that explains the measured reflection data using a parameterization in terms of reflectivity and propagation velocity. Both the inversion process inside the imaging/inversion scheme and the extra illumination provided by including multiples in joint migration inversion makes the obtained velocity and reflectivity operator largely independent of the utilized acquisition geometry and, thereby, relaxes the strong requirement of non-repeatability during the monitoring. Because simultaneous joint migration inversion inverts for all datasets simultaneously and utilizes various constraints on the estimated reflectivities and velocity, the obtained time-lapse differences have much higher accuracy compared to inverting each dataset separately. It allows the baseline and monitor parameters to communicate with each other dynamically during inversion via a user-defined spatial weighting operator. In order to get more localized time-lapse velocity differences, we further extend the regular simultaneous joint migration inversion to a robust high-resolution simultaneous joint migration inversion process using the time-lapse reflectivity difference as an extra constraint for the velocity estimation during inversion. This constraint makes a link between the reflectivity- and the velocity difference by exploiting the relationship between them. We demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed method with a highly realistic synthetic model based on the Grane field offshore Norway and a time-lapse field dataset from the Troll Field.

Analysis of the traveltime sensitivity kernels for an acoustic transversely isotropic medium with a vertical axis of symmetry

In anisotropic media, several parameters govern the propagation of the compressional waves. To correctly invert surface recorded seismic data in anisotropic media, a multi‐parameter inversion is required. However, a tradeoff between parameters exists because several models can explain the same dataset. To understand these tradeoffs, diffraction/reflection and transmission‐type sensitivity‐kernels analyses are carried out. Such analyses can help us to choose the appropriate parameterization for inversion. In tomography, the sensitivity kernels represent the effect of a parameter along the wave path between a source and a receiver. At a given illumination angle, similarities between sensitivity kernels highlight the tradeoff between the parameters. To discuss the parameterization choice in the context of finite‐frequency tomography, we compute the sensitivity kernels of the instantaneous traveltimes derived from the seismic data traces. We consider the transmission case with no encounter of an interface between a source and a receiver; with surface seismic data, this corresponds to a diving wave path. We also consider the diffraction/reflection case when the wave path is formed by two parts: one from the source to a sub‐surface point and the other from the sub‐surface point to the receiver. We illustrate the different parameter sensitivities for an acoustic transversely isotropic medium with a vertical axis of symmetry. The sensitivity kernels depend on the parameterization choice. By comparing different parameterizations, we explain why the parameterization with the normal moveout velocity, the anellipitic parameter η, and the δ parameter is attractive when we invert diving and reflected events recorded in an active surface seismic experiment.     

叠前逆时偏移影响因素分析

反射地震勘探中的偏移成像技术是获取地下介质构造形态最有效的手段之一.在叠前深度域偏移方法中,目前工业界采用的方法包括基于射线理论的波动方程积分解法和基于波动理论的微分波动方程单程波解法,这两类方法难以处理地震波横向速度变化剧烈的高陡倾角构造成像问题.近年来勘探地震学研究领域发展起来的叠前逆时偏移采用了双程波求解微分波动方程的算法,这种方法具有相位准确、不受介质横向速度变化和高陡倾角构造的影响、成像精度高、可以利用回转波正确成像等优点,从理论上弥补了当前工业界常规地震偏移所面临的成像缺陷.然而,叠前逆时偏移成像方法从理论走向实用尚需解决如下问题:计算速度和数据存储空间的节省、初始速度模型的建立、震源子波的选择、数值模型边界条件的定义和假像的消除等等.对于计算速度和存储量大的问题,随着计算机硬件的快速发展,将会不断得到改善,同时可以采取一些计算技术和存储策略来加以缓解.本文主要针对初始速度模型的建立、震源子波的选择、数值模型边界条件的定义和假像的消除这些因素,利用简单模型进行了分析.对于反射波造成的传播路径上的假像,给出了一种振幅补偿滤波方法.对勘探地球物理学界给出的SEG/EAGE二维盐丘模型、Marmousi模型和本研究设计的崎岖海底模型进行了叠前逆时偏移成像,均取得了较好的成像效果.

基于快速非支配排序遗传算法的VTI介质多分量叠前联合反演

在VTI介质中,由于引入了各向异性参数使得多分量多参数地震反演问题的非线性程度显著增加,因此采用传统的权重加权法构建单目标函数进行反演得到的反演结果往往并不理想.本文以反射率法为基础,结合快速非支配排序遗传算法研究了一种VTI介质的多分量叠前联合反演方法.该方法以反射率法为正演方程,应用互相关原理构建PP波和PSV波的多目标函数,进而采用快速非支配排序遗传算法全局寻优获得VTI介质的厚度、纵横波速度、密度和各向异性参数等多个参数.在正演的过程中,反射率法可以考虑几何扩散、吸收衰减、透射损失、多次波以及纵横波旅行时不匹配等地震波传播效应,更能精确地描述地震波在地下地层中的真实传播情况;在反演的过程中,快速非支配排序遗传算法可以在不引入权重系数的条件下同时优化多个目标函数,获得联合反演问题的Pareto最优解,既不添加权重系数影响又充分利用多分量地震数据.模型测试结果验证了该反演方法的有效性和可行性.
