    Abstract: Spectral decomposition has been widely used to detect frequency-dependent anomalies associated with hydrocarbons. By ignoring the time-variant feature of the frequency content of individual reflected wavelets, we have adopted a sparse time-frequency spectrum and developed a matching pursuit-based sparse spectral analysis (MP-SSA) method to estimate the sparse time-frequency representation of the seismic data. Further, we evaluate a generalized nonstationary convolution model concerning propagation attenuation and frequency-dependent reflectivity, and we mathematically evaluate the sparse time-frequency spectrum of the nonstationary seismic data as being equal to the product of the Fourier spectrum of the source wavelet, frequency-dependent reflection coefficient, and the cumulative attenuation during seismic wave propagation. Therefore, the reflectivity spectrum, which is a combination of the frequency-dependent reflectivity and the propagation attenuation, can be determined by dividing the sparse time-frequency spectrum of the seismic data by the Fourier spectrum of the source wavelet. Application of the matching pursuit-based decomposition methods to synthetic nonstationary convolutional data illustrates that the adopted MP-SSA spectrum shows a higher time resolution than the matching pursuit-based Wigner-Ville distribution and the matching pursuit-based instantaneous spectral analysis spectra. Notably, the MP-SSA method can avoid spectral smearing, which may introduce distortions to the frequency-dependent anomaly estimation. Application of the amplitude versus frequency analysis based on MP-SSA to field data illustrates the potential of using the sparse reflectivity spectral intercept and gradient to detect the hydrocarbon reservoirs.

    Abstract: Ordovician fractured vuggy carbonate reservoirs, which are deeply buried in the Tazhong Shunnan area in China, are characterized by high heterogeneity. Meanwhile, there is no significant difference between the geophysical characteristics of the reservoirs and that of the surrounding rocks. We have introduced the multiscale stack random medium theory and built some theoretical seismic-geologic models for the fractured vuggy carbonate reservoirs. Furthermore, we obtained the seismic reflection characteristics corresponding to these models using finite-difference forward modeling. The small random vugs are characterized by weak and chaotic reflections with high frequency, and the large vugs are characterized by strong and chaotic reflections with low frequency. The amplitude of the seismic reflections increases with the increasing vug density, and it decreases with the increasing roughness factor. Combining the synthetic reflection characteristics corresponding to the fractured vuggy carbonate reservoirs and the actual seismic reflections from the drilled reservoirs, we summarized the recognition patterns of the carbonate reservoirs. The predicted results found that the potential fractured vuggy reservoirs at the top of Yijianfang Formation are located in the southwest and northeast, in the vicinity of fault zones. The reservoirs in Peng-Laiba Formation are distributed in the northwest of the block.

    Abstract: The normal-to-shear fracture compliance ratio is commonly used as a fluid indicator. In the seismic frequency range, the fluid indicator lies between the values for isolated fluid-filled fractures and dry fractures, and it is not easy to discriminate the fluid content. Assuming that the fracture surfaces are smooth, we use [Formula: see text], with [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] representing the normal fracture weakness of the saturated and dry rock, to indicate fluid types, and to define a fluid influencing factor. The fluid influencing factor is sensitive to the fluid properties, the aspect ratio of the fractures, and the frequency. Conventionally, the amplitude versus offset and azimuth (AVOA) inversion is formulated in terms of the contrasts of the fracture weaknesses across the interface, assuming that the fractures are vertical with the same symmetry axis. We consider fractures with arbitrary azimuths, and develop a method to estimate fracture parameters from wide-azimuth seismic data. The proposed AVOA inversion algorithm is tested on real 3D prestack seismic data from the Tarim Basin, China, and the inverted fracture density show good agreement with well log data, except that there are some discrepancies for one of the fractured reservoir sections. The discrepancies can be ascribed to neglect of the dip angle for the tilted fractures and the conjugate fracture sets, and to the validity of the linear-slip model. The fractured reservoirs are expected to be liquid saturated, under the assumption of smooth fractures. Overall, the inverted fracture density and fluid influencing factor can be potentially used for better well planning in fractured reservoirs and quantitatively estimating the fluid effects.
