Imaging Salt Dome Flank and Dipping Sediments Using Time Reversed Acoustics
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2006)
In this paper we define the theory and basic principles to move (redatum) the surface shots from a walk away VSP to be as if they had been located in the borehole. We will refer to this theory using several of the terms ...
Fracture Quality From Integrating Time-Lapse VSP and Microseismic Data
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2007)
Tight gas reservoirs are problematic to produce, often requiring multiple stages of hydraulic fracturing in order to create connected pathways through which hydrocarbons may flow. In this paper, we propose a new methodology ...
Redatumming Through a Salt Canopy – Another Salt Flank Imaging Strategy
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2007)
We describe a new short cut strategy to image the sediments and salt edge around a salt
flank through an overburden salt canopy. We demonstrate its performance and capabilities on a
synthetic acoustic seismic data from ...
Elastodynamic Redatumming for VSP Salt Dome Flank Imaging
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2007)
In this paper we construct an application methodology for the theoretical elastodynamic
redatumming work by Wapenaar (2006) to be able to approximate its use in the problem of
imaging a salt dome flank using a walk away ...
A Novel Application of Time Reversed Acoustics: Salt Dome Flank Imaging Using Walk Away VSP Surveys
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2005)
In the past few years, there has been considerable research and interest in a topic known by various names, such as Time Reverse Acoustics (TRA), Time Reverse Mirrors (TRM), and Time Reverse Cavities (TRC), which exploits ...
A Novel Application of Time Reversed Acoustics: Salt Dome Flank Imaging Using Walkaway VSP surveys
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2006-03-01)
In this paper we present initial results of applying Time-Reversed Acoustics (TRA) technology to saltdome flank, seismic imaging. We created a set of synthetic traces representing a multilevel, walkaway VSP for a model ...
