• Abstract summary: 4D seismic imaging has been widely used in CO$$ sequestration projects to monitor the fluid flow in the volumetric region that is not sampled by wells. We develop neural-network-based models that can produce high-fidelity interpolated images effectively and efficiently. Our models are built on an autoencoder, and incorporate the long short-term memory (LSTM) structure with a new loss function regularized optical flow.

• Abstract: 4D seismic imaging has been widely used in CO$_2$ sequestration projects to monitor the fluid flow in the volumetric subsurface region that is not sampled by wells. Ideally, real-time monitoring and near-future forecasting would provide site operators with great insights to understand the dynamics of the subsurface reservoir and assess any potential risks. However, due to obstacles such as high deployment cost, availability of acquisition equipment, exclusion zones around surface structures, only very sparse seismic imaging data can be obtained during monitoring. That leads to an unavoidable and growing knowledge gap over time. The operator needs to understand the fluid flow throughout the project lifetime and the seismic data are only available at a limited number of times, this is insufficient for understanding the reservoir behavior. To overcome those challenges, we have developed spatio-temporal neural-network-based models that can produce high-fidelity interpolated or extrapolated images effectively and efficiently. Specifically, our models are built on an autoencoder, and incorporate the long short-term memory (LSTM) structure with a new loss function regularized by optical flow. We validate the performance of our models using real 4D post-stack seismic imaging data acquired at the Sleipner CO$_2$ sequestration field. We employ two different strategies in evaluating our models. Numerically, we compare our models with different baseline approaches using classic pixel-based metrics. We also conduct a blind survey and collect a total of 20 responses from domain experts to evaluate the quality of data generated by our models. Via both numerical and expert evaluation, we conclude that our models can produce high-quality 2D/3D seismic imaging data at a reasonable cost, offering the possibility of real-time monitoring or even near-future forecasting of the CO$_2$ storage reservoir.

  We design a space-time memory (STM)-based network, which extracts useful temporal information of the current frame from adjacent frames as the temporal branch of VSOD. In the encoding stage, we generate high-level temporal features by using high-level features from the current and its adjacent frames. In the decoding stage, we propose an effective fusion strategy for spatial and temporal branches. The proposed model does not require optical flow or other preprocessing, and can reach a speed of nearly 100 FPS during inference.

We evaluate the performance of the augmented logistic regression model relative to a deep (CNN) model, pre-trained on the Groningen data, on progressively increasing noise-to-signal ratios. We discover that, for each ratio, our logistic regression model correctly detects every earthquake, while the deep model fails to detect nearly 20 % of seismic events.
