Abstract
Introduction. Dynamic analysis is an important tool for reservoir properties prediction. Usage of its results is tied to the quality of the initial seismic data. If there are several seismic surveys with various processing graphs, it is necessary to normalize signal amplitudes values.
Aim. The aim of the work is dynamic analysis results adaptation (based on seismic surveys from different years) to predict the perspective turbidite fans’ boundaries within the Achimov complex interval.
Materials and methods. An experiment with seismic attributes normalizing was conducted to identify the optimal solution for reservoir forecasting for three different layers, depending on a set of factors on one of the oil fields in Yamalo-Nenets Autonomous District. The quality control was based on the identified anomalies (conducted by normalized attributes) verification with well data, as well as 3D seismic data at a neighboring site.
Results. Based on the experiment results, optimal parameters for the attributes normalization within the framework of dynamic analysis were found in order to obtain a qualitative & quantitative reservoir distribution forecast within the Achimov formation in conditions of limited geophysical data maturity. According to the results of obtained maps comparison with the calculated attributes within the arrays of 3D cubes in the neighboring area, the attribute anomalies on the map correspond to the conceptual continuation of the turbidite fans, clearly expressed in the wave pattern in 3D seismic data (common depth point).
Conclusion. Proper attributes selection and amplitudes normalization during dynamic analysis in conditions of limited study allows obtaining a geobodies propagation forecast, which is compared with the conceptual representation, borehole data and anomalies obtained at a neighboring 3D seismic data. Some recommendations for attributes normalization for various external factors have been developed.
