The Application of Seismic Sedimentology in Prediction of Channel Sand in Pu I Formation, Gaotaizi Oilfield

Article Preview

Abstract:

Pu I formation in Gaotaizi oilfield mainly developed delta distributary channels. The sand body is narrow and has a complex superimposition in vertical, which caused the sand body hard to forecast. To solve this problem the method of seismic sedimentology was applied to building high frequency stratigraphic framework and extracting high-precision stratal slice. The technique of 90-degree phasing conversion and multi-attribute comprehensive analysis to the channel sand was also performed. At last Pu I formation in Gaotaizi Oilfield is divided into fifteen fifth-order sequences. The attributes of Rms amplitude and Arc length are considered as the best attribute to reflect the characteristics of the channel sand in study area. By a multiple linear regression to the attributes, the prediction accuracy between wells is improved from 61% to 78%.
