Nonlinear Soil Response in the Near-Field of a Vibrator Truck: Application to Land Seismic Surveys
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2007)
The nonlinear behavior of soils can significantly modify the wavelet radiated from
vibrator trucks. In this paper, we describe a field experiment designed to measure the
nonlinear response of a natural soil formation in ...
Fracture Properties From Seismic Scattering
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2007)
Fractures scatter seismic energy and this energy can be analyzed to provide information about fracture
direction and density. Laboratory and numerical (finite difference) models of fractures show that scattered
energy ...
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 ...
