Abstract: Areas with low exploration degrees in the Tarim Basin exhibit intricate seismic-geologic conditions and extensively developed multiples.The internal multiples generated by strong reflection interfaces involving Paleozoic gypsum rocks undermine the imaging of the Ordovician stratigraphic information,resulting in vague images for Ordovician fractured-vuggy carbonate reservoirs and thus affecting stratigraphic interpretation.Accurate prediction and suppression of internal multiples in the Yubei area is challenging,thus restricting the deployment of oil and gas exploration in the area.The conventional prediction method for internal multiples is computationally intensive and ineffective.Hence,this study proposed an internal multiples suppression technique combined with the modeling method and adaptive matching subtraction.Based on the principles of internal multiples prediction and the forward modeling results,the proposed technique takes the main reflection interfaces generating internal multiples as the model layers and follows the approach of layer-by-layer prediction and suppression.Finally,it employs adaptive matching subtraction for the suppression of internal multiples.As demonstrated by the processing results of actual data,the proposed technique can effectively predict and suppress the dominant internal multiples to eliminate their interference effects.It solves the problems of layer-crossing phenomenon and flat formation occurrence,improving the imaging accuracy of formation structures,faults,and fractured-vuggy reservoirs.
