Seismic characterization of reservoirs with variable fracture spacing by double focusing Gaussian beams
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2013)
Fractured reservoirs account for a majority of the oil production worldwide and often have low recovery rate. Fracture characterization is important in building reservoir flow models for enhanced oil recovery. Information ...
A Bayesian framework for fracture characterization from surface seismic data
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2012)
We describe a methodology for quantitatively characterizing the fractured nature of a hydrocarbon or geothermal reservoir from surface seismic data under a Bayesian inference framework. Fractures provide pathways for fluid ...
Efficient Double-Beam Characterization for Fractured Reservoir
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2012-06)
We proposed an efficient target-oriented method to characterize seismic properties of fractured reservoirs: the spacing between fractures and the fracture orientation. Based on the diffraction theory, the scattered wave ...
