Abstract:

Fault-controlled reservoirs in Shunbei area are deep in buried depth and complex in reservoir space. And their distribution is mainly controlled by deep and large strike-slip faults. So it is difficult to accurately describe their spatial position, volume and connectivity during exploration and development of the fault-karst reservoirs. According to the geological model of the strike-slip faults, and the types and seismic response characteristics of the fault-controlled reservoirs, we first establish seismic recognition patterns through forward modeling and well logging-seismic analysis for analyzing the sensitive seismic attributes of the reservoirs, and develop a series of technologies for predicting the outlines and interiors of the fault-controlled reservoirs. Then we characterize the outlines and interiors of the fault-controlled reservoirs based on the structural tensor, enhanced coherence, instantaneous energy and clutter attributes and phase-controlled wave impedance inversion. Finally, we provide the technology using seismic data to identify the ultra-deep fault-controlled reservoirs in Shunbei area.

Key words: Shunbei area, strike-slip fault, fault-karst reservoir, forward modeling, seismic recognition pattern, seismic attribute
