Detection of Fracture Orientation Using Azimuthal Variation of P-wave Avo Responses

Azimuthally-dependent P-wave AVO (amplitude variation with offset) responses can be related to open fracture orientation and have been suggested as a geophysical tool to identify fracture orientation in fractured oil and gas reservoirs. A field experiment recently conducted over a fractured reservoir in the Barinas Basin (Venezuela) provides data for an excellent test of this approach. Three li...

Using AVO for fracture detection: Analytic basis and practical solutions

Tight, low-porosity reservoirs can produce significant amounts of hydrocarbons if fracture networks provide the necessary permeability. Characterization of naturally fractured reservoirs using surface seismic data is an important exploration problem that has attracted much attention in the literature. TLE, for example, had an entire issue (August 1996) on this subject. While the data and modeli...

Comparison of Discrete Fracture and Effective Media Representation of Fractures on Azimuthal AVO

In fractured reservoir development, azimuthal AVO (AVOaz) properties of reflected PP waves from reservoir tops are often used to infer fracture properties. The fracture parameter inversion is based on either an effective media model (EMM) or a discrete fracture model (DFM). We address the differences in fracture properties that may be inferred by AVOaz based on the two models. For the DFM we fo...

Effects of Fractured Reservoir Elastic Properties on Azimuthal Avo

Aligned vertical fractures introduce velocity anisotropy which is directly related to parameters, such as fracture density, fracture shape and fracture contents. Effective medium models allow us to study qPand qS-wave velocity anisotropy in rocks with aligned vertical fractures, intersecting fracture sets and aligned fractures with smallscale porosity. Spatially varying fracture density distrib...

A case study of azimuthal AVO analysis with anisotropic spreading correction

Seismic methods play an important role in the development of tight fractured reservoirs with substantial spatial variability of fracture density. Here, we apply a comprehensive processing sequence designed for layered azimuthally anisotropic media to wide-azimuth P-wave data acquired over a fractured gas sand formation in the Rulison field, Colorado. The main processing steps include nonhyperbo...
