Abstract:

Previous exploration and research results show that the carbonate reservoir spaces of the Ordovician Yingshan Formation in Ka-1 3D acreage in Tazhong area are dominated by fractures and dissolution pores.However,recent reprocessed seismic data reveal some bead-shaped and short-axis-shaped high amplitude anomalies in Ka-1 3D seismic data.For this reason,many techniques,such as numeral seismic forward modeling,incoherence detection,palaeogeomorphology restoration and multiple seismic attribute extraction,are integrated to re-predict the Ordovician YingShan Formation carbonate reservoirs in Ka-1 3D acreage.The results show that the zig-shaped strong amplitude anomalies in plane view represent igneous rocks,while strong amplitude anomalies being scattered in plane view and beads-shaped on profile represent carbonate reservoirs with large cavities.These interpretations have been verified by well W20 completed recently.

Key words: incoherence detection, forward modeling, reservoir prediction, carbonate rocks, Ka-13D acreage, Tazhong area
