Converted Phase Elastic Migration Velocity Analysis
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2013)
Multi-component elastic seismic data collected at large offsets have the potential to be used in seismic imaging and velocity analysis. In this study, we present an approach for converted-phase elastic-transmission migration ...
Seismic imaging of hydraullically-stimulated fractures: A numerical study of the effect of the source mechanism
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2012)
We present a numerical study of seismic imaging of hydraulically stimulated fractures using a single source from an adjacent fracturing-process. The source is either a point force generated from the perforation of the ...
Comparison of microearthquake locations using seismic interferometry principles
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2012)
Mapping, localization, and general characterization of problems in reservoir fracture systems is one of the most important in oil, gas, and geothermal energy production. One way to study and monitor these fracture systems ...
Analysis of location uncertainty for a microearthquake cluster: A case study
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2013)
In many reservoirs, an increase in permeability and conductivity is achieved by hydraulic fracturing/stimulations which open cracks and fractures that then act as pathways for fluids to navigate in the subsurface. Mapping, ...
