Research on the method of shear wave prediction based on rock physics modeling

Shear wave velocity plays an important role in seismic forward modeling,fluid prediction and AVO analysis.However,due to the high cost of shear wave logging,there are no shear wave velocity logging data in some work areas.The prediction method of shear wave based on rock physics modeling is specific and accurate.In this paper,the method of calculating effective elastic modulus proposed by Sabrina is adopted,and the assumption conditions of CAO for shear wave prediction by this method are extended,rock physics modeling is performed,and the measured porosity is used to calculate the pore compliance so as to further predict the shear wave.Finally,combined with the actual data,the cross velocity data are used to conduct verification,and the results show that the effect is fairly good.
