Korea Offshore Seismic Data Processing for Gas Detection
천연 가스 탐지를 위한 국내 대륙붕 탄성파자료 처리
Abstract
The bright spot is an indicator for natural gas on seismic stack sections, but it is also shown on layers where the acoustic impedance contrast is large. In order to distinguish sharply between gas and impedance contrast we need additional detailed data processing such as velocity analysis, AVO analysis and seismic complex analysis including measures of seismic amplitude, frequency, and phase. In this study, we performed detailed velocity analysis, complex analysis and DHI (Direct Hydrocarbon Indicator) analysis which is the result of amplitude variation according to the incident angles. The seismic complex analysis gives us the geological information which depends on geophysical properties at the interest layer. For the complex analysis, we computed several seismic attributes such as the instantaneous amplitude, the first and the second derivatives of the instantaneous amplitude, the instantaneous phase, the instantaneous frequency and weighted average instantaneous frequency. Then we applied these analysis techniques to a seismic data of Korea offshore which had been logged. From the result of this data analysis, it could be said that high possibility area for gas layer detection has amplitude anomalies in the instantaneous amplitude, the instantaneous frequency and the DHI section resulting from the AVO analysis. If there are not any other anomalies in detailed data processing, it will have low possibility for gas layer detection.
탄성파 중합 단면도 상에서 천연가스 부존 여부를 지시하는 명점(bright spot)은 가스 층이외에 음향계수 차이가 큰 지층에서도 나타나므로 가스 층여부를 판단하기 위해서는 속도분석, AVO 분석, 탄성파 복소 트레이스 분석 등 추가적인 정밀 자료처리가 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 가스 층 추정을 위해 정밀 속도분석과 트레이스 복소분석 그리고 입사각에 따른 진폭변화 결과인 탄화수소 직접 지시 단면도(DHI)분석을 실시하였다. 트레이스 복소분석은 지층 상
