Interferometric hydrofracture microseism localization using neighboring fracture
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2011-05-19)Hydraulic fracturing is the process of injecting high-pressure fluids into a reservoir to induce fractures and thus improve reservoir productivity. Microseismic event localization is used to locate created fractures. ... -
Focal Mechanism Determination of Induced Microearthquakes in an Oil Field Using Full Waveforms from Shallow and Deep Seismic Networks
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2011-05-09)A new, high frequency, full waveform matching method is used to study the focal mechanisms of small, local earthquakes induced in an oil field, which are monitored by a sparse near-surface network and a deep borehole ... -
A robust method for fracture orientation and density detection from seismic scattered energy
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2011)The measurements of fracture parameters, such as fracture orientation, fracture density and fracture compliance, in a reservoir is very important for field development and exploration. Traditional seismic methods for ...
