Abstract:The underground media generally have heterogeneous characteristics, which means the elastic, petrophysical, and fluid parameters that characterize the oil and gas reservoirs are spatially inhomogeneous. The conventional seismic stochastic inversion mainly uses the variogram function obtained from well log data to characterize the spatial structure of underground formations, and it is difficult to effectively describe the spatial variation characteristics of underground complex heterogeneous reservoirs. Therefore, this paper first describes the characteristics of the spatial disturbance caused by different inhomogeneous media characteristic parameters to the media. Then, guided by the Bayesian theory, this paper makes use of the underground formation information contained in the known well log data and seismic data and proposes the stochastic inversion method based on the characteristic parameters of inhomogeneous media. This method integrates the given well log data and seismic data and estimates the characteristic parameters of inhomogeneous media which can better describe the spatial structure characteristics of underground reservoirs based on random medium theory. Next, these parameters are utilized to build a prior information model required for the subsequent inversion process. Finally, a very fast quantum annealing algorithm is adopted to optimize the objective function, and the stochastic inversion results are obtained. The model test shows that the prior model of heterogeneous characteristic parameters can describe the heterogeneous characteristics of the reservoirs and provide reliable geostatistical prior information for subsequent inversion. The case analysis further shows that this method can better achieve high-resolution inversion of complex underground reservoirs and obtain more reliable inversion results.
