Reverse-time-migration of multiply scattered seismic waves
Multiply scattered waves, including internal multiples, are rarely considered as signal when imaging with seismic waves. Reverse-time-migration techniques accurately handle the propagation of such complex scattered waves, but most of these techniques paradoxically do not fully utilize the illumination and energy of multiply scattered waves because these methods rely on the single-scattering ass...
متن کاملSeismic Data Preconditioning for Improved Reservoir Characterization (Inversion and Fracture Analysis)
Advanced seismic techniques such as prestack inversion or azimuthal analysis are now routinely adopted for quantitative reservoir characterization of rock properties and fracture indicators, however the quality of the input seismic data is critical to such advanced analyses. Frequency content, random and coherent noise, amplitude-preserving processing and gather flatness must be addressed at th...
متن کاملNatural Fracture Characterization Using Passive Seismic Illumination
The presence of natural fractures in reservoir rock can significantly enhance gas production, especially in tight gas formations. Any general knowledge of the existence, location, orientation, spatial density, and connectivity of natural fractures, as well as general reservoir structure, that can be obtained prior to active seismic acquisition and drilling can be exploited to identify key areas...
متن کاملReservoir permeability from seismic attribute analysis
In case of porous fluid-saturated medium the Biot’s poroelasticity theory predicts a movement of the pore fluid relative to the skeleton on seismic wave propagation through the medium. This phenomenon opens an opportunity for investigation of the flow properties of the hydrocarbon-saturated reservoirs. It is well known that relative fluid movement becomes negligible at seismic frequencies if po...
متن کاملEnhanced angular resolution from multiply scattered waves
Multiply scattered waves are often neglected in imaging methods, largely because of the inability of standard algorithms to deal with the associated nonlinear models. This paper shows that by incorporating a known environment into the background model, we not only retain the benefits of imaging techniques based on linear models, but also obtain different views of the target scatterer. The net r...
