微地震监测是了解井下水力压裂效果的重要手段,震源机制的矩张量反演是了解压裂过程中裂缝破裂情况的主要工具。采用广义反透射系数方法正演理论地震记录,用矩张量描述震源属性,求解观测记录和矩张量的线性方程组,反演出震源机制解,并得到水力压裂所产生裂缝的方位和倾角等参数,为压裂裂缝的解释和压裂效果评价提供依据。理论模型和实际微地震资料的正、反演结果证明了方法的有效性。
Microseismic monitoring is very important for hydraulic fracturing; moment tensor inversion is the main method to identify the breaking trend of induced fractures.Firstly,the generalized reflection and transmission coefficient method is used to model seismogram and moment tensor inversion is used to characterize the source attributes.Then,the linear equation group of observation records and moment tensor are solved to inverse the source mechanism,from which the strike,dip and other parameters of induced fractures are obtained.All the information provides the criteria for hydraulic fractures interpretation and fracturing evaluation.The forwarding and inversion results of theoretical model and actual microseismic data prove the effectiveness of the method.
