Joint flow-seismic inversion for characterizing fractured reservoirs: theoretical approach and numerical modeling
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2013)
Traditionally, seismic interpretation is performed without any account of the flow behavior. Here, we present a methodology to characterize fractured geologic media by integrating flow and seismic data. The key element of ...
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 ...
Modeling of acoustic wave scattering from a two-dimensional fracture
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2010)
In this paper, we model the acoustic scattering from a two dimensional fracture that is simulated by two different physical models. We calculate the scattering from the fractures with different properties based on these ...
SH Wave Scattering from Fractures using Boundary Element Method with Linear Slip Boundary Condition
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2011)
A boundary element method (BEM) combined with a linear slip boundary condition is proposed to calculate SH wave scattering from fractures. The linear slip boundary condition was proposed by Schoenberg (1980) to model elastic ...
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 ...
