Abstract
Normal moveout (NMO)-based velocity analysis can provide macro velocity models for prestack data processing and seismic attribute inversion. Datasets with an increasing size require conventional velocity analysis to be transformed to a more automatic mode. The sensitivity to multiple reflections limits the wide application of automatic velocity analysis. Thus, we propose an automatic velocity analysis method for seismic data-containing multiples to overcome the limit of multiple interference. The core idea of the proposed algorithm is to utilize a multi-attribute analysis system to transform the multiple attenuation problem to a multiple identification problem. To solve the identification problem, we introduce the local similarity to attribute the predicted multiples and build a quantitative attribute called multiple similarity. Considering robustness and accuracy, we select two supplementary attributes based on velocity and amplitude difference, i.e., velocity variation with depth and amplitude level. Then we utilize the technique for order preference by similarity to ideal solution (TOPSIS) to balance weights for different attributes in automatic velocity analysis. An RGB system is adopted for multi-attributes fusion in velocity spectra for visualization and quality control. Using both synthetic and field examples to evaluate the effectiveness of the proposed method for data-containing multiples, the results demonstrate the excellent performance in the accuracy of the extracted velocity model.
