Abstract

In this paper we consider an application of the method of electromagnetic (EM) migration to the interpretation of a typical marine controlled-source (MCSEM) survey consisting of a set of sea-bottom receivers and a moving electrical bipole transmitter. Three-dimensional interpretation of MCSEM data is a very challenging problem because of the enormous number of computations required in the case of the multi-transmitter and multi-receiver data acquisition systems used in these surveys. At the same time, we demonstrate that the MCSEM surveys with their dense system of transmitters and receivers are extremely well suited for application of the migration method. In order to speed up the computation of the migration field, we apply a fast form of integral equation (IE) solution based on the multigrid quasi-linear (MGQL) approximation which we have developed. The principles of migration imaging formulated in this paper are tested on a typical model of a sea-bottom petroleum reservoir.

이 논문에서 우리는 해저용 수신기들과 이동하는 전기적 양극송신기의 한 조로 이루어진 전형적인 해양 인공송신 전자탐사 (MCSEM) 방법에 의해 얻어진 자료 해석에 전자탐사 구조보정법의 적용을 다룬다. 이 연구에서와 같이 다중 송신기와 다중 수신기를 이용해 획득된 자료는 방대한 컴퓨터 계산을 요하기 때문에 MCSEM자료의 3차원적 해석은 매우 도전적인 문제이다. 이와 동시에, 우리는 조밀하게 송신 및 수신기를 위치 시켜야 하는 이 MCSEM시스템은 구조보정법의 적용에 아주 적합하다는 것을 보여줄 것이다. 구조보정장 계산의 속도를 증가시키기 위해 우리는 직접 개발한 다중격자 준선형 (MGQL) 근사법에 기초한 적분방정식 해의 빠른 형태를 적용시켰다. 이 논문에서 공식화된 구조보정 영상 원리는 전형적인 해저 석유 저류층 모델에 적용되어 시험 되었다.
