摘要
Ant-tracking technique based on ant-tracking algorithm is a kind of modern optimization algorithm which is developed in recent years. In PY30-1 gas field drilling period, using ant-tracking can identify some small faults and fractures which are hard to be figured out in seismic volume and seismic variance volume. By analyzing the reason of mud leaking which happened in horizontal well drilling and describing the character of fault and fracture, the supporting evidence is provided for evaluation of drilling risk and valuable reference to well -placement optimization. The method works well in actual drilling and fully meet the expectation of design.
