Seismic characterization of fractured reservoirs using 3D double beams
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2012)
We propose an efficient target-oriented method to characterize seismic properties of fractured reservoirs: the spacing between fractures and the fracture orientation. We use both singly scattered and multiply scattered ...
Predicting stress-induced anisotropy around a borehole
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2012)
Formation elastic properties near a borehole may be altered from their original state due to the stress concentration around the borehole. This could result in a biased estimation of formation properties but could provide ...
Reservoir fracture characterizations from seismic scattered waves
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2012)
The measurements of fracture parameters, such as fracture orientation, fracture density and fracture compliance, in a reservoir is very important for field development and exploration. Traditional seismic methods for ...
An approach for predicting stress-induced anisotropy around a borehole
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2012)
Formation elastic properties near a borehole may be altered from their original state due to the stress concentration around the borehole. This could result in a biased estimation of formation properties but could provide ...
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 ...
Scholte waves generated by seafloor topography
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2012)
Seafloor topography can excite strong interface waves called Scholte waves that are often dispersive and characterized by slow propagation but large amplitude. This type of wave can be used to invert for near seafloor shear ...
Fluid Flow Property Estimation from Seismic Scattering Data
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2012)
We present a methodology for relating seismic scattering signals from fractures to the fluid permeability field of the fracture network. The workflow is used to interpret seismic scattering signals for the reservoir ...
