Preparation method of structures perspective for prospecting and exploratory oil and gas drilling Preparation method of structures perspective for prospecting and exploratory oil and gas drilling / 2502089
Seismic measurements are carried out by means of a CDP method on the surface area perspective in oil-and-gas-bearing respect. Processing and structural interpretation of seismic data is performed, thus obtaining structural maps of target reflecting horizons. Based on structural maps, additional build-up of two-dimensional networks of target reflecting horizons is performed. As per the received two-dimensional networks of target reflecting horizons and using a trend analysis method, build-up of two-dimensional networks a regional component is performed for each reflecting horizon. A local component is calculated. For cells of the two-dimensional network of the local component the prepared structures are localised for each target reflecting horizon at simultaneous fulfilment of two conditions: first - when the local component is larger than zero, and second - when a zero contour is closed. A sum of local component is defined for all the target reflecting horizons. With that, the local structure is considered to have been prepared for all the target reflecting horizons when the value of sum of local component is larger than zero. For allocated localised structures for each reflecting horizon there calculated is local structure amplitude and local structure surface area. Priority of readiness degree of the structure prepared for prospecting and exploratory oil and gas drilling is determined as per the value of amplitude and surface area of local structure, and namely: the higher the above local structure values, the higher the perspective of prospecting and exploratory oil and gas drilling.

The technical field to which the invention relates

The invention relates to Geophysics and seismology, and is intended for research of geodynamic processes of the geological environment, and earthquake prediction.

Description of the invention.

The level of technology.

Currently there are only a few cases of successful prediction of earthquakes, when simultaneously predict three heterogeneous parameter: time (t), a (x,y) and magnitude (M). Since there is no process for forecasting earthquakes, when simultaneously predict three parameters: time (t), a (x,y) and magnitude (M), consider the solution of the simpler task of predicting the two parameters.

Known, taken as a prototype, way of forecasting the earthquakes, based on determination of two of the three main parameters of earthquakes t - time (x,y) coordinates focal, M - a magnitude, which consists in the fact that for every (x,y) coordinates of the territory determine the maximum M - magnitude earthquake [1]. Thus believe that an earthquake with a magnitude of M happens once in a fixed time t, equal to 1000, 500 or 100 years.

Research into the development of the prototype method [1] is an independent scientific field called seismic zoning or long-term forecast of earthquakes. In several States, including Russia, map of seismic zoning are a decision-making and are the necessary basis for earthquake-proof construction in earthquake-prone areas.

Because in seismically active areas, not all the houses and other urban facilities were built taking into account the seismic construction, and not all of earthquake-proof houses can withstand the effects of seismic disaster, then currently needed, as a minimum estimate of the time of the devastating earthquake to save lives and prevent possible additional losses due to the exclusion of secondary factors of damage from earthquakes, fires, explosions of household gas etc.

Disclosure of the invention.

The comparative analysis of features of the declared and known solutions demonstrates its compliance with the criterion of «novelty».

The task for the claimed method, consists in determining the power and time of the earthquake on the specified territory known monitoring observations on the measuring range, equipment placed within a given territory of measuring the polygon.

Solution of this problem is provided by the fact that the method of earthquake prediction based on the determination of two of the three main parameters of earthquakes t 0 is the time (x,y) coordinates focal, M - magnitude, for the selected territory of polygon measuring, for example, for the territory of the urban agglomeration or important economic object, perform monitoring network of seismological equipment of at least 4, it is preferable 10-14, three-component Registrar of seismic vibrations placed each other at a given spacing within a measurement of the landfill and simultaneously equipment to monitor changes in level of water in one hydrogeological borehole, and the level of water in the hydrogeological borehole should react on the lunar-solar tides, and seismic records from a seismic source - distant earthquakes at distances of more than 2 degrees) establish the M - magnitude of future earthquakes, and by the reaction of the aquifer in the hydrogeological borehole at the impact of the lunar-solar tides set the time window of the mid-term forecast, the beginning of a short-term forecast and determine t 0 - occurrence of earthquakes; that the start time of the time window medium-term prediction of earthquakes determine the time t 1 started to terminate the reaction of the aquifer to the influence of the lunar-solar tides, what is judged by the absence of changes in water level in the hydrogeological borehole, and the start time, short-term prediction of earthquakes t2 set on the basis of the resume time of reaction of the aquifer to the influence of the lunar-solar tides on the water levels of the hydrogeological borehole, what is judged by changes in the level of water in the hydrogeological borehole, the time of occurrence of the earthquake to determine the dependence of

t 0 ={[(t 2-t 1 )+1]+(1+/-1)},

where time t 0 , t 1 and t 2 define in the day.

The technical result: determination of the magnitude and time of the earthquake with accuracy (+/-) 1 day for the territory of polygon measuring, for example, for the territory of the urban agglomeration or important economic object, monitoring observations within the selected area of the measurement of the polygon.

Realization of the invention.

The newly introduced operations that provide a set of essential features achieve these qualitative properties as:

- the possibility, on the basis of the existing complex of technical means of continuous observations of the earth's surface for the selected territory of polygon measuring, for example, for the territory of the urban agglomeration or important economic feature, determine the magnitude M and records the changes in water level in one of the hydrogeological borehole within the territory of the measuring of the polygon time t earthquake with accuracy (+/-1) day;

- high efficiency of obtaining and processing of monitoring information;

- there is no need to determine the future earthquake.

Summary of the invention consists in the following. On the measuring landfill size, preferably 60 x 60 km 2 , place at least 4, it is preferable 10-14, three-component Registrar of seismic vibrations and conduct continuous seismic records.

At the exposition of the essence of the proposed invention used seismic records treated according to the technology under patent (Vasiliev S.V., Solodilov LN., VALERY Korobov Way of assessing the change in the stress state of the geological environment. Patent of the Russian Federation №2009124808 from 30.06.2009, issued 31.03.2011 by priority from 30.06.2009) [2]. A new data processing system called information-structural technology of processing of seismic data, abbreviated technology, and assumes that the information is systemic in nature and it is only in interaction. Seismology, as well as the seismic survey, based on the interaction of external energy (seismic pulse and the geological environment. In this case, the object of study is open non-equilibrium and non-linear system. This means that the wave seismic process is not only elastic deformation. Part of the energy of a seismic pulse scatters (dissipates only partially) in the geological environment with the transition into heat energy. This thermodynamic branch of the seismic process. With the removal of this part of energy from sustainable conditions arise patterns of self-organizing, evolving in time, which carry the information about the level of stressed state and its organization in space.

As in the wave process we are dealing with deformation, as control parameters in the study of the regularities of seismic energy can be used physico-mechanical properties of rocks, which change in time under the influence of changing voltage.

Source of information is the geological environment with its viscoelastic and -dispersed properties. The role of the media performs exchange seismic wave in which information is encoded on the changing tense through the change of physico-mechanical properties of the geological environment. Media always is the structure. Therefore, the information process is shifting patterns reasons (change of the stress state of geological environment on the structure of the investigation (seismic field). The problem is reduced to the discovery of such structures.

The founder of theory of dissipative structures and basic principles of nonequilibrium thermodynamics is a Nobel prize winner I. Prigogine [3-5]. The main parameter to describe the process of self-organization is entropy. A.N. Kolmogorov [6] for the first time (1976) introduced the concept of entropy of a single event that allows to consider the sequence of qualitatively different States of the system as a program, removing the uncertainty (algorithmic determination of the information). Dissipative structures are self-organization of energy with the sharp decrease in entropy in the system when you remove it from the equilibrium state [3-5].

Seismic data processing is carried out as follows. On the seismic records for further processing excrete metabolic wave (figure 1) from distant earthquakes (with distances of more than 2 degrees). Because the seismic signals from distant earthquakes come on measuring polygon almost vertically from the bottom, we can assume that all exchange waves, registered in the X,Y plane arise directly under and therefore carry information on the condition of geological environment under the measuring ground. At the beginning of processing the z component of each of seismic records from one earthquake register the time of the first entry longitudinal wave (Fig 1). Next choose the time interval of seismic records, such as 4 seconds, make the calculation of the energy exchange of the waves on the x-and y-components and is carried out by the summation (accumulation) for all registered seismic records from this earthquake.

Figure 2 shows the result of summation of energy alternating waves of the group (portions) of earthquakes, where summarised static (prognosis) and dynamic (effects of stress) part.

Then continue to the summation of energy exchange subsequent waves from earthquakes to the emergence of resistant amplitude of spatial inhomogeneities in the distribution of the energy of alternating waves (figure 3), which by definition are the elements of the structure of the seismic field, reflecting the information about the geological structure (geological cross-section) of a plot under the measuring ground, and what is the definition of level of background voltage.

And, further, as a result of monitoring observations obtain time series of similar structures in distribution of energy of alternating waves. By the deviation of the obtained structures from the level of background values of the judge about the change of the stressed state of the geological environment for the moments of time of receipt of each structure in the distribution of the energy of alternating waves. Largest relative stability of fluctuations of the energy distribution alternating waves - target useful signal, in turn, make judgments about the relative hazard of change in the stress state of the geological environment under the territory of the measuring of the polygon.

The target signal is represented in the form of the section (figure 4) in the coordinates (x,t), where x is the distance between on the measuring range, a t - time seismic records, and in area (figure 5) in the coordinates (x,y), and on the context (figure 4) and in area (figure 5) target signal is expressed in colours that reflect clearly the danger of a future earthquake.

The color scheme is the calibration scale to determine the magnitude of earthquakes within a measurement of the polygon. In this scale unit adopted energy exchange waves, which correspond to the background level, and the next and each successive color, corresponding to an increase of energy exchange waves in 3 times. If the epicenter of the future earthquake with the maximum possible magnitude of the region will be located in the Central part of the measuring polygon, you can get the maximum relative measure of the energy of alternating waves (and color) for calibration of the scale.

Within the territory of measuring polygon recorded earthquakes with magnitudes within M=(1-2,5). Them on the calibration scale correspond to the orange and green colors. Because these earthquakes, as well as registered near the polygon are not dangerous for constructions and life of humans, orange, green, the more red color on the records of the target of the useful signal are not the color of trouble. Although the scale in full experimentally not scaled, subsequent color scale of blue, dark blue and purple registered the target signal, respectively, will characterize the alarm and danger to human life and safety of constructions within the territory of the measuring of the polygon. Thus, in the proposed method of the forecast of earthquakes monitor the reaction of the environment within a measurement of the landfill and depending on the recorded values of the stress state (in the above calibration scale) are judging the intensity magnitude of the predicted earthquake.

Predictive time the future of the devastating earthquake, a more complex situation: even with your dependencies to determine the time of the earthquake on the observed magnitudes M=(1-2,5) difficult to transfer these dependencies on the forecast of the times for destructive earthquakes. Available experimental data on the definition of time of the earthquake on the observed magnitudes M=(1-2,5) show that the error in forecasting earthquakes time is 3 and more days.

To reduce the error in predicting the time of the earthquake, within the territory of polygon measuring simultaneously with the placement of seismological equipment Buryats one hydrogeological borehole within the territory of the measuring site and placed in it the set of the equipment to monitor changes in water levels and carry out continuous record of changes in water level. Hydrogeological borehole choice, in accordance with the invention (Vartanian G.S., E.A. Popov, V.O. «Method for evaluating the suitability of hydrogeological and geophysical object for observation for the study of the geodynamic processes». Patent of Russian Federation №13033957 from 23.04.1984,) [7], according to which it must respond to the lunar-solar tides.

Thus, in accordance with the invention, according to the results of seismic and reservoir monitoring equipment available on-site measuring of the polygon, in terms of its territory determine the rate, magnitude and time of the future earthquake with accuracy (+/-)1 day.

We also note that, in accordance with the experimental data [8], after the date of termination of changes in water level in the hydrogeological borehole an earthquake occurs not earlier than 7-10 days, which determines the time window of the mid-term forecast. Therefore, the proposed method, along with the registration of changes in the seismic regime, allows you to issue mid-term (7-10 days) about the level of seismic hazard in the measurement of the landfill and its nearest surroundings with the issuance of the forecast of earthquake hazard, i.e. after every data processing monitoring allows to answer the question whether or not there will be an earthquake in the area of measuring polygon in the coming (7-10) days, and, what is especially important, the only equipment in the territory of the measuring of the polygon.

These results suggest using the present invention creation of services safety of urban agglomerations and important objects by analogy, for example with the service of fire safety and other services security at these facilities.

Way of forecasting the earthquakes, based on determination of two of the three main parameters of earthquakes t is time, x,y - the coordinates of focal, M - magnitude, wherein the territory of polygon measuring, for example in the urban agglomeration or important economic object, perform monitoring network of seismological equipment of at least 4, it is preferable 10-14, three-component Registrar of seismic vibrations placed each other at a given spacing within measuring the polygon, and simultaneously equipment to monitor changes in level of water in one hydrogeological borehole, and the level of water in the hydrogeological borehole should react on the lunar-solar tides, and seismic records from a seismic source - distant earthquakes at distances of more than 2 degrees) establish the M - magnitude of future earthquakes, and by the reaction of the aquifer in the hydrogeological borehole at the impact of the lunar-solar tides set the time window of the mid-term forecast, the beginning of a short-term forecast and determine t 0 - time the occurrence of earthquakes.

2. Way of forecasting the earthquakes according to claim 1, characterized in that the M - magnitude of future earthquakes determine known way to change the integral characteristics of stressed state of the geological environment under the territory of the measuring polygon records seismological equipment and calibration of the scale established experimentally by results of monitoring of the seismic equipment, and the start time of the time window medium-term prediction of earthquakes determine the time t 1 - early terminate the reaction of the aquifer to the influence of the moon-solar tide, what is judged by the absence of the changes of water level in the hydrogeological borehole, and the start time, short-term prediction of earthquakes t 2 set on the basis of the resume time of reaction of the aquifer on the impact of the lunisolar tide on the water levels of the hydrogeological borehole, what is judged by changes in the level of water in the hydrogeological borehole, and the time of occurrence of earthquakes t 0 with respect to t 1 define the dependence of t 0 ={[(t 2-t 1 )+1]+(1+/-1)}, where time t 0 , t 1 and t 2 define in the day.
