Abstract

To improve the accuracy and practicability of elastic and petrophysical parameter inversion, we develop a strategy for estimating the elastic and petrophysical parameters based on the Gassmann equation using deterministic prestack inversion. We employ the Gassmann equation to construct the relationship between the prestack seismic data and petrophysical parameters We treat the joint posterior probability of elastic and petrophysical parameters as the objective function under a Bayesian framework. Given the macroscopic geological background and the poor-quality prestack seismic data, seismic facies regularization constraints was introduced to improve the robustness and accuracy of the inversion. The very fast-simulated annealing method is used to quickly find the optimal solutions for the elastic and petrophysical parameters. Based on a model test and the application of real data demonstrates that the proposed inversion method has high accuracy and strong reliability.
