Fractal Dimension Calculation of Seismic Traces and Application to Reservoir Description in Coastal Regions

Jiang Su · 2006

Three methods were introduced to acquire the capacity dimension(amplitude dimension),associated dimension,fractal dimension in R/S analysis by using the seismic data,and their physical significances were elucidated,so that more oil and gas reserves could be discovered with fewer wells drilled in the coastal region.On the basis of analyzing the seismic and geologic condition in the coastal region,by means of designing the geological model and fractal dimension calculation of the actual seismic dimension of seismic traces the method for reservoir prediction and hydrocarbon detection was discussed.The application in the coastal region indicated that fractal dimension technology can explain the change of seismic wave shape as the hydrocarbon reservoir itself.So the reservoir prediction and hydrocarbon detection methods by using the fractal have important applications in coastal regions.
