Modeling and Analysis of Azimuthal AVO Responses from a Viscoelastic Anisotropic Reflector
Applied Geophysics/Applied geophysics(2015)
摘要
We propose a method for modeling azimuthal AVO responses from a fractured reflector. The method calculates the integrated reflected wavetrains, and the wavetrains contain elastodynamic information including the contrast in impedance and anelasticity across interfaces, the internal anisotropic propagation, the dispersion and attenuation along the wave path, and tuning and interference. The results suggest that for large angles of incidence, the velocity dispersion and attenuation increase the amplitudes of PP waves from the top and decrease those from the bottom. For azimuthal responses at specific angles of incidence, the reflected wavetrains of PP waves tend to have longer duration with increasing azimuth. In contrast, model-converted PSV and PSH reflections show stable azimuthal features and are less affected by the reflector thickness. The amplitudes of PSV reflections increase with increasing azimuth; moreover, the waves have no reflection energy at 0° and 90° azimuth and maximum amplitude at 45° azimuth.
