Numerical modeling of elastic wave scattering by near-surface heterogeneities 

Al Muhaidib, Abdulaziz; Toksoz, M. Nafi (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2013)
A perturbation method for elastic waves and numerical forward modeling are used to calculate the effects of seismic wave scattering from arbitrary shape shallow subsurface heterogeneities. Wave propagation is simulated ...

Multipole seismoelectric logging while drilling (LWD) for acoustic velocity measurements 

Zhu, Zhenya; Wang, Jun; Toksoz, M. Nafi (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2012)
In seismoelectric well logging, an acoustic wave propagates along a borehole and induces electrical signals along the borehole wall. The apparent velocities of these seismoelectric signals are equal to the formation ...

Predicting stress-induced anisotropy around a borehole 

Fang, Xinding; Fehler, Michael; Zhu, Zhenya; Chen, Tianrun; Brown, Stephen; e.a. (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 ...

Full-waveform Based Microseismic Event Detection and Signal Enhancement: The Subspace Approach 

Song, Fuxian; Warpinski, Norm R.; Toksoz, M. Nafi; Kuleli, Huseyin Sadi (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2013)
Microseismic monitoring has proven to be an invaluable tool for optimizing hydraulic fracturing stimulations and monitoring reservoir changes. The signal to noise ratio (SNR) of the recorded microseismic data varies ...

Estimate the Effective Elastic Properties of Digitized Porous Rocks by Inverting the Cracks Unresolved 

Zhang, Yang; Toksoz, M. Nafi (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2010)
Current imaging technique such as micro X-ray CT can provide us detailed 3D micro-structures of porous rocks that can be used in numerical simulation so as to predict elastic properties of rocks saturated with different ...

Downhole microseismic monitoring of hydraulic fracturing: a full-waveform approach for complete moment tensor inversion and stress estimation 

Song, Fuxian; Toksoz, M. Nafi; Li, Junlun (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2010)
Downhole microseismics has gained in popularity in recent years as a way to characterize hydraulic fracturing sources and to estimate in-situ stress state. Conventional approaches only utilize part of the information ...

Integration of Geology, Rock-Physics, Logs, and Pre-stack Seismic for Reservoir Porosity Estimation 

Al Muhaidib, Abdulaziz; Sen, Mrinal K.; Toksoz, M. Nafi (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2011)
The main objective of this paper is to obtain reservoir properties, such as porosity, both at the well locations and in the inter-well regions from seismic data and well logs. The seismic and well-log datasets are from an ...

Finite Difference Elastic Wave Modeling Including Surface Topography 

Al Muhaidib, Abdulaziz; Fehler, Michael; Toksoz, M. Nafi; Zhang, Yang (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2011)
Surface topography and the weathered zone (i.e., heterogeneity near the earth’s surface) have great effects on elastic wave propagation. Both surface waves and body waves are contaminated by scattering and conversion by ...

Focal Mechanism Determination of Induced Microearthquakes in an Oil Field Using Full Waveforms from Shallow and Deep Seismic Networks 

Li, Junlun; Kuleli, Huseyin Sadi; Zhang, Haijiang; Toksoz, M. Nafi (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2011-05-09)
A new, high frequency, full waveform matching method is used to study the focal mechanisms of small, local earthquakes induced in an oil field, which are monitored by a sparse near-surface network and a deep borehole ...

Simulating Shear Wave Propagation in Two-Dimensional Fractured Heterogeneous Media by Coupling Boundary Element and Finite Difference Methods 

Chen, Tianrun; Li, Junlun; Toksoz, M. Nafi (Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2011)
A hybrid method to model the shear wave (SH) scattering from 2D fractures embedded in a heterogeneous medium is developed by coupling Boundary Element Method (BEM) and Finite Different Method (FDM) in the frequency domain. ...
