Abstract:

The Permian Shanxi Formation in the Yan’an Gas Field of the Ordos Basin contains tight sandstone gas reservoirs within a shallow delta front. However,predicting sandbody distribution is challenging due to strong reservoir heterogeneity,large well spacing,and the signal-attenuating effects of the Quaternary loess plateau. As a result,the distribution patterns of effective gas-bearing reservoirs remain poorly understood. Using the S23 submember of the Shanxi Formation in the Gaojiahe area of the central Yan’an Gas Field as a case study,this research proposes an intelligent sandbody prediction method based on an adaptive weighting strategy. This approach integrates the relationship between amplitude-frequency characteristics and tuned thickness into an attention mechanism,establishing an adaptive weighting framework for multi-band seismic attributes. The weighting strategy prioritizes high-frequency attributes for identifying thin layers and low-frequency attributes for thick layers,effectively addressing sandbody prediction challenges in the presence of low-quality seismic data. Compared with existing methods,the proposed approach yields the most accurate sandbody thickness predictions across various ratios of learning wells to blind wells. For example,in a test involving 45 learning wells and 63 blind wells,the correlation coefficient(R) between predicted and actual sandbody thickness reached 0.85. Prediction results indicate that the S23 submember in the Gaojiahe area develops wide,banded sand bodies deposited in a shallow-water delta-front environment. Thick,coarse-grained sediments in the main distributary channels,along with the main body and inner edge of the mouth bar,are confined within the palaeo-geomorphological low of the main valley. Due to wave scouring,these intervals exhibit high quartz content and represent the principal effective gas reservoirs.

摘要:

鄂尔多斯盆地延安气田二叠系山西组发育浅水三角洲前缘致密砂岩气储集层,然而,由于储集层非均质性强、井距大以及第四系黄土塬的影响,导致砂体分布预测难度大,有效含气储集层分布规律尚不明确。本研究以延安气田中部高家河地区山西组23亚段为例,提出了一套基于自适应权重策略的井震砂体智能预测方法,即将振幅—频率与调谐厚度的关系引入注意力机制,构建了多频段地震多属性的自适应权重分配机制,达到高频属性聚焦薄层、低频属性聚焦厚层的智能权重分配策略,以解决低品质地震资料条件下砂体预测难题。与其他已有方法相比,考虑不同学习井—盲井比例,本次方法的砂体厚度分布预测效果均最好,其中,学习井45口、盲井63口情况下,盲井的预测与实际砂厚的相关系数(R)达0.85。砂体预测结果表明,高家河地区山23亚段发育宽条带状海相浅水三角洲前缘砂体,厚层、粗粒的主分流河道、河口坝主体与内缘受限于主沟谷古地貌内,受海浪淘洗作用,石英含量高,为主要的有效含气储集层。
