Time-Lapse Depletion Modeling Sensitivity Study: Gas-Filled Gulf of Mexico Reservoir
Time-lapse seismic allows oil/gas reservoir monitoring during production, highlighting compaction and water movement. Time-lapse modeling, using a stress-dependent rock physics model, helps determine the need and frequency of expensive repeat seismic acquisition. We simulate a Gulf of Mexico gas …

SEISMIC FIRST BREAK PICKING ALGORITHM WITH CASE STUDIES FOR FULL WAVE ELASTIC PHYSICAL MODELING IN THE LAB
… physical models is to simulate the shallow water seismic acquisition using aluminum to represent a hard seafloor. The calibration of the model requires characterization of our particular aluminum, so several experiments were conducted to estimate its P-wave and S-wave velocity. The experiments …

Fracture characterization from seismic measurements in a borehole
… natural and hydraulic fractures using seismic measurements in a borehole. We first develop methods to characterize a fracture intersecting an open borehole by studying tubewave generation and attenuation at the fracture. By numerically studying the dispersion relation for fluid pressure …

An Approach to Mapping of Shallow Petroleum Reservoirs Using Integrated Conventional 3D and Shallow P- and SH-Wave Seismic Reflection Methods at Teapot Dome Field in Casper, Wyoming
… (P) and horizontally polarized shear (SH) wave seismic reflection surveys can overcome the limitations of conventional 3D seismic data in resolving small-scale structures in the very shallow subsurface (< 100-200 m (~328-656 ft)). We accomplish this by using small CMP intervals (5 ft and 2.5 ft, …

Adaptation and Learning for Manipulators and Machining
… a marine vibrator, for the application of marine seismic acquisition. A frequency-domain ILC strategy is proposed, in order to attenuate undesired overtones and improve the tracking accuracy. The harmonics were suppressed after approximately 20 iterations of the ILC algorithm, and the absolute …

Distributed acoustic sensing: modelling, full waveform inversion, and its use in seismic monitoring
… acoustic sensing (DAS) is a rapidly evolving seismic acquisition technology. Employing rugged and small optical fibers, DAS offers an opportunity for access to acquisition geometries often not accessible to more conventional geophone sensors. This is a highly attractive property of DAS fibers, …

Machine Learning and Bayesian Statistics for Seismic Compressive Sensing
Seismic surveys involve an artificial source of waves and a grid of receivers at the surface. Often, receivers could be missing either because they malfunctioned or could not be placed in certain locations. It could also be the fact that a local source of noise renders a receiver’s output as …

Seismic amplitude fidelity study for quantitative analysis and its relation to stack-based signal-to-noise ratio estimation using the SEAM Arid model, with application to field data from the Powder River Basin
… and implement quantitative tools to assess the seismic amplitude fidelity for quantitative interpretation in several land acquisition designs, and establish a signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) threshold for adequate quantitative analysis in complex near-surface environments. The first part of the …
