How Does Seismic Data Quality Influence Pore Pressure Estimation and Interpretation?
نویسنده
چکیده
There are two main approaches for pore pressure estimation: geological using basin modeling and geophysical using seismic velocity. In this paper, seismic velocity was used for pore pressure estimation. The impact of the input data quality in terms of signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and frequency bandwidth on the accuracy of seismic velocity analysis and, ultimately, the reliability of pore pressure estimation were reviewed at selected milestone processing steps that were used to enhance the prestack time migrated (PSTM) seismic data..

This paper proposes a method for the prediction of pore size values in hydrocarbon reservoirs using 3D seismic data. To this end, an actual carbonate oil field in the south-western part ofIranwas selected. Taking real geological conditions into account, different models of reservoir were constructed for a range of viable pore size values. Seismic surveying was performed next on these models. F...
متن کاملAn Algorithm for Modeling and Interpretation of Seismoelectric Data
Generally speaking, seismoelectric modeling is a prospecting method based on seismic and electromagnetic waves, in which waves generated by a seismic source at the boundary of the two environments generate a relative fluid-solid motion formed as a result of antagonism between the elastic properties of the environment with the saturated fluid. This research has as its objective, a study of the e...
