Seismic Inversion Based on 2D-CNNs and Domain Adaption

Deep learning has been applied to tackle the seismic inversion problem, bringing more efficiency and accuracy. However, bad spatial continuity and poor generalizability limit the practical application. To solve these problems, we propose a 2D end-to-end seismic inversion method based on domain adaption. Firstly, the proposed 2D network learns the inversion mapping of seismic data under the constraint of domain adaption layer, which can reduce the difference between the features of real seismic data and synthetic seismic data, improving the generalization ability on real seismic data. Then, the trained model is finetuned with well logging data. In the first process, the spatial continuity of the inversion result is guaranteed by the 2D training scheme. Meanwhile, due to the constraint of the domain adaption layer, our model not only performs well on the synthetic data but also has good generalization ability on the real seismic data. And we carefully discuss the mechanism of domain adaption layer. In the second process, finetuning introduces well logging information, which can further improve the ability to invert details. Moreover, in order to improve the inversion accuracy on real seismic data, we develop a new training data generation method that can generate the synthetic samples close to the real samples, and a 2.5D training strategy is adopted to improve the continuity of the 3D data. The experiments on both synthetic and real seismic data show that our method performs better than both the recursive inversion method and the 1D closed-loop CNN methods.
