Seismic facies characterization by monoscale analysis
نویسندگان
چکیده
Relating sedimentary records to seismic data is a major challenge. By shifting focus to a scale-invariant sharpness characterization for the reflectors, we develop an attribute that can capture and categorize the main reflector features, without being sensitive to amplitudes. Sharpness is defined by a scale exponent, which expresses singularity order and determines the reflection signature/waveform. Local scale exponent estimates are obtained with a new monoscale method. Compared to multiscale wavelet analysis, our method has the advantage of measuring transition exponents at a single fixed scale using a simple on-off criterion. The exponents contain amplitude variation information and describe lithological onsets. We create an image of the earth’s local singularity structure by applying our method to seismic traces and well-log data. The singularity map facilitates interpretation, facies characterization, and integration of well and seismic data on the level of local texture.

Seismic Facies Characterization by Scale Analysis
Over the years, there has been an ongoing struggle to relate well-log and seismic data due to the inherent bandwidth limitation of seismic data, the problem of seismic amplitudes, and the apparent inability to delineate and characterize the transitions that can be linked to and held responsible for major reflection events and their signatures. By shifting focus to a scale invariant sharpness ch...
متن کاملFacies Modeling of Heterogeneous Carbonates Reservoirs by Multiple Point Geostatistics
Facies modeling is an essential part of reservoir characterization. The connectivity of facies model is very critical for the dynamic modeling of reservoirs. Carbonate reservoirs are so heterogeneous that variogram-based methods like sequential indicator simulation are not very useful for facies modeling. In this paper, multiple point geostatistics (MPS) is used for facies modeling in one of th...
