Amplitude versus Offset (AVO) Technique for Light Hydrocarbon Exploration: A Case Study
AVO as a known methodology is used to identify fluid type and reservoir lithology in subsurface exploration. Method discussed in this paper, consists of three stages, including: Direct modeling, Inverse modeling and Cross plot interpretation. By direct modeling we can clarify lithology or fluid dependent attributes. Analysis performed using both P-P and P-Sv attributes. Inverse modeling deals w...
متن کاملShear-Wave Dynamic Behavior using Two Different Orientations
For laterally complex media, it may be more suitable to take a different orientation of thedisplacement vector of Shear-waves. This may change the sign of several imaginary reflections andconversion coefficients to be used in reservoir characterization and AVO (Amplitude Versus Offset)analysis or modeling. In this new convention the positive direction of the displacement vector ofreflected Shea...
متن کاملEstimation of Plunge Value in Single- or Multi-Layered Anisotropic Media Using Analysis of Fast Polarization Direction of Shear Waves
Estimation of the fast polarization direction of shear seismic waves that deviate from horizontal axis is a valuable approach to investigate the characteristics of the lower crust and uppermost mantle structures. The lattice preferred orientation of crystals, which is generally parallel to the downward or upward flow of the mantle or crust, is an important reason for the occurrence of fast axis...
متن کاملFinite-amplitude shear wave in pre-stressed thin elastomers
We examine the elastic shear waves generated in a thin pre-stressed elastomer layer that is sandwiched between two relatively thick steel plates and is subjected to an elastic shear wave traveling in one of the steel plates. The elastomer layer has been deformed in uni-axial strain in advance, producing in the layer very large axial and lateral compressive stresses of the order of its bulk modu...
متن کاملAnisotropic stress and shear wave velocity: DEM studies of a crystalline granular material
Discrete element modelling (DEM) of a face-centred cubic assembly of spherical particles has been used to study the influence of anisotropic stress states on the shear wave velocity of a granular material. The shear waves were generated and detected in a way equivalent to the use of bender elements in laboratory testing. Comparisons are presented between the discrete element simulations and ana...
