Success of High-Resolution Volumetric Q-Tomography in the Automatic Detection of Gas Anomalies on Offshore Brunei Data
2015
Over recent years, many authors have proposed to compensate the absorption loss effects inside of the imaging process through the use of an attenuation model. This is necessary in the presence of strong attenuation anomalies. Q tomography has been developed for estimating this attenuation model but is generally limited to estimating attenuation in predefined anomaly areas. In this paper, we show how shallow gas pockets are revealed automatically by using a high-resolution volumetric Q tomography on the complex offshore Brunei dataset. A key component of our approach is the estimation of effective attenuation in pre-stack migrated domain through accurate picking of the frequency peak. Estimated Q-model is then used to compensate for absorption in the imaging process.
