Assisted Seismic Matching: Joint Inversion of Seismic, Rock Physics and Basin Modeling
In this study, we apply advanced numerical optimization techniques to extend the work of Imhof and Sharma (2005, 2006) to integrate geological and geophysical data and infer the sedimentary parameters that produce a match to seismic data. In particular, we seek to match not just event timing (phase) but also reflection strength (amplitude). This inverse problem of quantitatively matching presen...
متن کاملA closer look at rock physics models and their assisted interpretation in seismic exploration
Subsurface rocks and their fluid content along with their architecture affect reflected seismic waves through variations in their travel time, reflection amplitude, and phase within the field of exploration seismology. The combined effects of these factors make subsurface interpretation by using reflection waves very difficult. Therefore, assistance from other subsurface disciplines is needed i...
متن کاملRock physics based facies classification from seismic-inversion results in unconventional reservoirs
The objective of this study is to demonstrate the power of integrating rock physics theory, measurement and simulation to improve facies prediction in an unconventional limestone and shale reservoir. Reliable facies prediction is a challenge in unconventional reservoir characterization because of complex geological heterogeneities. Both deterministic and probabilistic approaches are commonly us...
متن کاملEstimation of reservoir fluid saturation from 4D seismic data: effects of noise on seismic amplitude and impedance attributes
Time-lapse (4D) seismic data sets have proven to be extremely useful for reservoir monitoring. Seismic-derived impedance estimates are commonly used as a 4D attribute to constrain updates to reservoir fluid flow models. However, 4D seismic estimates of P-wave impedance can contain significant errors associated with the effects of seismic noise and the inherent instability of inverse methods. Th...
متن کاملEffects of uncertainty in rock-physics models on reservoir parameter estimation using marine seismic AVA and CSEM data
This study investigates the effects of uncertainty in rockphysics models on estimates of reservoir parameters from joint inversion of seismic AVA and CSEM data. The reservoir parameters are related to electrical resistivity using Archie’s law, and to seismic velocity and density using the Xu-White model. To account for errors in the rock-physics models, we use two methods to handle uncertainty:...
