Abstract

The marine controlled-source electromagnetic method (MCSEM) has attracted considerable attention as an approach to explore marine oil and gas resources and geological structures. This study presents a new wavelet Galerkin method (WGM) to solve the forward modeling problem of 2D MCSEM data incorporating conductivity anisotropy. The method uses Daubechies wavelets that may be differentiated based on the need to solve the governing field equations of MCSEM. A quasi-minimal residual method was adopted by combining an incomplete LU preconditioner to solve the WGM equations. The numerical results were compared with the analytical solution and those obtained by the finite difference and element methods. The results show that the proposed WGM is superior to the finite element and difference methods in terms of computing time and memory requirements. This algorithm can be applied to solve the forward modeling problem of MCSEM. The conductivity anisotropy of the background medium affects the MCSEM response more than the reservoir anisotropy. The match between the modeled results and measured data for the simplified real model demonstrates the necessity for using the anisotropic model to interpret data. Although this study used the proposed algorithm for 2D models, it may also be used for 3D models.
