Groundwater sampling from open boreholes in fractured-rock aquifers is particularly challenging because of mixing and dilution of fluid within the borehole from multiple fractures. This note presents an alternative to traditional sampling in open boreholes with packer assemblies. The alternative system called ZONFLO (zonal flow) is based on hydraulic control of borehole flow conditions. Fluid f...
New-generation electromagnetic (EM) and sonic logging tools are capable of measuring multi-frequency multi-component data at multiple depths of investigation. This allows us to image the formation around the borehole by using an inversion method. A method is developed for directly obtaining porosity and fluid saturation distributions by simultaneously inverting borehole EM and sonic measurement...
Seismic interferometry has become a technology of growing interest for imaging from borehole seismic data. We demonstrate that interferometry of internal multiples can be used to image targets above a borehole receiver array. We use an interferometry technique that targets the reconstruction of specific primary reflections from multiply reflected waves. In this target-oriented interferometry ap...
An approximate theory for the scattering of an incident plane P wave into tube waves in a fluid-filled borehole drilled through two homogeneous half-spaces is proposed in this paper. This theory is in excellent agreement with the zero frequency formulation (White, 1983) for frequencies below hundreds of Hertz (in the range of conventional crosshole or VSP experiments) and flnite difference simu...
Modeling the geologic architecture of an aquifer and visualizing its three-dimensional structure require lithologic data recorded during well drilling. Uncertainties in layer boundaries arise due to questionable quality of drilling records, mixing during the drilling process, which results in blurred contacts, and natural heterogeneity of the geologic materials. An approach for modeling and vis...
In a series of field experiments, we evaluate the influence of a small water pressure change on fracture aperture during a hydraulic test. An experimental borehole is instrumented at the Korea Atomic Energy Research Institute (KAERI) Underground Research Tunnel (KURT). The target fracture for testing was found from the analyses of borehole logging and hydraulic tests. A double packer system was...
Tube-wave speed in the presence of a weakly anisotropic formation can be expressed in terms of an effective shear modulus for an equivalent isotropic formation. When combined with expressions for the speeds of the SHand quasi-SV-waves along the borehole axis, a simple inversion procedure can be obtained to determine three of the five elasticities of a transversely isotropic (TI) formation tilte...
A variety of seismic testing techniques rely on the use of seismic sources, detectors, or both, placed at some depth below the ground surface; these are often installed within fluid-filled boreholes. The interpretation of the records obtained in the course of such explorations requires a thorough understanding of how waves propagate in the borehole and its immediate vicinity. Depending on the d...
A model coupling fluid hydraulics in a borehole with fluid flow in an aquifer is developed in this paper. Conservation of momentum is used to create a one-dimensional steady-state model of vertical flow in an open borehole combined with radially symmetric flow in an aquifer and with inflow to the well through the wellbore screen. Both laminar and turbulent wellbore conditions are treated. The i...
We calibrate the 8180 paleothermometer for central Greenland using borehole temperatures, a thermal model forced by a measured 8180 record and a formal inverse technique. The calibration is determined mostly by temperature fluctuations of the last several centuries, including the Little Ice Age. Results are generally insensitive to model variables, including initial condition, basal boundary co...
