The inversion of petrophysical parameters from seismic data represents a fundamental step in the process of characterizing the subsurface. We propose a novel, data-driven approach named Seis2Rock that utilizes optimal basis functions learned from well log information to directly link band-limited petrophysical reflectivities to pre-stack seismic data. Seis2Rock is composed of two stages: training and inference. During training, a set of optimal basis functions are identified by performing singular value decomposition on one or more synthetic AVO gathers created from measured or rock-physics synthesized elastic well-logs. In inference, seismic pre-stack data are first projected into a set of band-limited petrophysical properties using the previously computed basis functions; this is followed by regularized post-stack seismic inversion of the individual properties. In this work, we apply the Seis2Rock methodology to a synthetic dataset based on the Smeaheia reservoir model and the open Volve field dataset. Numerical results reveal the ability of the proposed method in recovering accurate porosity, shale content, and water saturation models. Finally, the proposed methodology is applied in the context of reservoir monitoring to invert time-lapse, pre-stack seismic data for water saturation changes.
