Abstract:Recent studies have shown that learning theories have been very successful in hydrocarbon exploration. Inversion of seismic into various attributes through the relationship of 1D well-logs and 3D seismic is an essential step in reservoir description, among which, acoustic impedance is one of the most critical attributes, and although current deep learningbased impedance inversion obtains promising results, it relies on a large number of logs (1D labels, typically more than 30 well-logs are required per inversion), which is unacceptable in many practical explorations. In this work, we define acoustic impedance inversion as a regression task for learning sparse 1D labels from 3D volume data and propose a voxel-wise semisupervised contrastive learning framework, ContrasInver, for regression tasks under sparse labels. ConstraInver consists of several key components, including a novel pre-training method for 3D seismic data inversion, a contrastive semi-supervised strategy for diffusing well-log information to the global, and a continuous-value vectorized characterization method for a contrastive learning-based regression task, and also designed the distance TopK sampling method for improving the training efficiency. We performed a complete ablation study on SEAM Phase I synthetic data to verify the effectiveness of each component and compared our approach with the current mainstream methods on this data, and our approach demonstrated very significant advantages. In this data we achieved an SSIM of 0.92 and an MSE of 0.079 with only four well-logs. ConstraInver is the first purely data-driven approach to invert two classic field data, F3 Netherlands (only four well-logs) and Delft (only three well-logs) and achieves very reasonable and reliable results.
Abstract:The interpolation and reconstruction of missing traces is a crucial step in seismic data processing, moreover it is also a highly ill-posed problem, especially for complex cases such as high-ratio random discrete missing, continuous missing and missing in fault-rich or salt body surveys. These complex cases are rarely mentioned in current sparse or low-rank priorbased and deep learning-based approaches. To cope with complex missing cases, we propose Multi-Dimensional Adversarial GAN (MDA GAN), a novel 3-D GAN framework. It employs three discriminators to ensure the consistency of the reconstructed data with the original data distribution in each dimension. The feature splicing module (FSM) is designed and embedded into the generator of this framework, which automatically splices the features of the unmissing part with those of the reconstructed part (missing part), thus fully preserving the information of the unmissing part. To prevent pixel distortion in the seismic data caused by the adversarial learning process, we propose a new reconstruction loss Tanh Cross Entropy (TCE) loss to provide smoother gradients. We experimentally verified the effectiveness of the individual components of the study and then tested the method on multiple publicly available data. The method achieves reasonable reconstructions for up to 95% of random discrete missing, 100 traces of continuous missing and more complex hybrid missing. In surveys of fault-rich and salt bodies, the method can achieve promising reconstructions with up to 75% missing in each of the three directions (98.2% in total).
Abstract:Seismic data fault detection has recently been regarded as a 3D image segmentation task. The nature of fault structures in seismic image makes it difficult to manually label faults. Manual labeling often has many false negative labels (abnormal annotations), which will seriously jeopardize the training process. In this work, we find that region-based loss significantly outperforms distribution-based loss when dealing with false negative labels, therefore we proposed Mask Dice loss (MD loss), which is the first reported region-based loss function for training 3D image segmentation networks using sparse 2D slice labels. In addition, fault is an edge feature, and the current network widely used for fault segmentation downsamples the features multiple times, which is not conducive to edge representation and thus requires many parameters and computational effort to preserve the features. We proposed Fault-Net, which uses a high-resolution and shallow structure to propagate multi-scale features in parallel, fully preserving edge features. Meanwhile, in order to efficiently fuse multiscale features, we decouple the convolution process into feature selection and channel fusion, and proposed a lightweight feature fusion block, Multi-Scale Compression Fusion (MCF). Because the Fault-Net always keeps the edge features during propagation, only few parameters and computation are required. Experimental results show that MD loss can clearly weaken the effect of false negative labels. The Fault-Net parameter is only 0.42MB, support up to 528^3(1.5x10^8, Float32) size cuboid inference on 16GB video ram, its inference speed on CPU and GPU is significantly faster than other networks. It works well on most of the open data seismic images, and the result of our approach is state-ofthe-art in FORCE fault identification competition.
