Abstract

En 中文

Seismic fault detection is indispensable for exploring reservoirs of hydrocarbons, and a considerable amount of research has thus been devoted to it. With the rapid development of deep learning in recent years, researchers have begun using convolutional neural networks (CNNs) to identify seismic faults. However, it remains challenging for geophysical interpreters to quickly train an efficient model on a limited number of samples for fault interpretation. In this letter, we propose a workflow that uses a CNNx2013;based method of semantic segmentation to interpret faults by using a small training set. It requires only the selection of some 2-D seismic sections from seismic volume data for interpretation and labeling to be trained to predict faults in the entire area considered. We simplified the VGG16 model to reduce training time and modified it to improve its performance. We used convolution layers instead of fully connected layers at the end of the network to implement the end-to-end classification of seismic images, and adopted dilation convolution to increase the receptive field and hybrid dilation convolution to avoid problems in it. We also applied the atrous spatial pyramid pooling (ASPP) module to further enhance the effects of segmentation. The results were subjected to postprocessing for refinement. The promising performance of the proposed method was verified on a set of real seismic data.
