The reservoir thickness of sub-member of Lower Permain in the south of the eastern margin of Ordos Basin is thin and large variable i laterally. And the seismic response characteristics of sandstone reservoir are doubly interfered by the strong reflection sidelobes of overlying 5# coal seam and underlying 8# coal seam. In view of this situation, in order to better eliminate the influence of upper and lower coal seams and improve the accuracy of reservoir prediction, the strategy of de-strong seismic reflection and de-logging (curve) interference is adopted to carry out the matching of logging and seismic, and on this basis, uses the seismic waveform indication inversion to predict the thin sandstone. The steps are as follows: firstly, by using wavelet decomposition and reconstruction technology, select the seismic wavelet component that can better characterize the reservoir or oil & gas to reasonablely reconstruct seismic data, weaken the influence of the strong reflection from overlying 5# coal seam and underlying 8# coal seam, and highlight the response of weak seismic reflection of tight sandstone in Shan 2³ sub-member; Then, the acoustic value of coal seam is corrected to that of mudstone on the logging curve to maintain the consistency of logseismic data. This method realizes the effective identification of sandstone reservoir in Shan 2³ sub-member, and greatly improves the target-penetrated rate and sandstone-penetrated rate of horizontal wells.
