• Abstract: In the Oil and Gas industry, estimating a subsurface velocity field is an essential step in seismic processing, reservoir characterization, and hydrocarbon volume calculation. Full-waveform inversion (FWI) velocity modeling is an iterative advanced technique that provides an accurate and detailed velocity field model, although at a very high computational cost due to the physics-based numerical simulations required at each FWI iteration. In this study, we propose a method of generating velocity field models, as detailed as those obtained through FWI, using a conditional generative adversarial network (cGAN) with multiple inputs. The primary motivation of this approach is to circumvent the extremely high cost of full-waveform inversion velocity modeling. Real-world data were used to train and test the proposed network architecture, and three evaluation metrics (percent error, structural similarity index measure, and visual analysis) were adopted as quality criteria. Based on these metrics, the results evaluated upon the test set suggest that the GAN was able to accurately match real FWI generated outputs, enabling it to extract from input data the main geological structures and lateral velocity variations. Experimental results indicate that the proposed method, when deployed, has the potential to increase the speed of geophysical reservoir characterization processes, saving on time and computational resources.

  Full waveform inversion (FWI) updates the velocity model by minimizing the discrepancy between observed and simulated data. Discretization errors in numerical modeling and incomplete seismic data acquisition can introduce noise, which propagates through the adjoint operator. We employ a convolutional neural network (CNN) to refine the velocity model before performing the forward simulation. We use the same data misfit loss to update both the velocity and network parameters, thereby forming a self-supervised learning procedure.
