摘要
Accurate modelling of fault seal is crucial in understanding fluid flow and connectivity in mature fields. Numerous methods of modelling the sealing capacity of faults have been developed, such as lithological juxtapositions, SGR and PSSF. However, due to the uncertainty of structure, throw and lithology prediction, conventional methods are difficult to meet the needs of reservoir development. In order to improve the accuracy of fault seal analysis, a new method was proposed in this abstract. Integrated PSDM seismic data, well logging, and reservoir dynamic data, this new fault seal analysis method include 4 steps: 1) Horizons and faults update based on PSDM seismic data. In this step, more accurate structure model would be generated; 2) Integrated well logging and seismic motion inversion (SMI) for reservoir lithology modelling. In this step, the accuracy of lithology prediction results on both sides of the fault will be improved; 3) Fault seal analysis was ran efficiently in 3D geological model by lithology juxtaposition and SGR. 4) Fault seal analysis QC and optimization by using reservoir dynamic data. This method has been successfully applied to the K mature oilfield in Central Asia. The detailed faults interpretation was done based on new PSDM seismic data. The number of faults increased from 18 to 44, and the new structural model was improved obviously. The reservoir model based on the combination of well logging interpretation and seismic motion inversion (SMI) is not only consistent with drilled well, but also consistent with seismic inversion trend, which improves the accuracy of lithology prediction. Automatic fault seal analysis algorithm based on 3D geological model can efficiently generate the fault seal analysis results, and find potential areas. Fault seal analysis results can be validated and optimized by dynamic data from drilled wells. 6 potential faulted seal traps below conventional oil-water contract (OWC) were found in the slope area of oilfield. 3 wells have been drilled and confirmed 3 fault seal reservoirs with high oil production and much lower water-cut (6%) than conventional water-cut (96%) in the slope of K mature oilfield. It is proved that the method is beneficial for development in mature oil field. This new fault seal analysis method integrated the information from PSDM seismic data, well logging, and reservoir performance data to improve the accuracy of faults model and lithology model, and generated a more reasonable fault seal analysis result. This allows more confidence in estimating the sealing or leaking capacity of faults and reduces risk of re-exploration and development in mature oil field.
