Joint flow-seismic inversion for characterizing fractured reservoirs: theoretical approach and numerical modeling
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2013)Traditionally, seismic interpretation is performed without any account of the flow behavior. Here, we present a methodology to characterize fractured geologic media by integrating flow and seismic data. The key element of ... -
Effect of borehole stress concentration on compressional wave velocity measurements
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2013)Formation elastic properties near a borehole may be altered from their original state due to the stress concentration around the borehole. This could lead to a biased estimation of formation elastic properties measured ... -
Sensitivity of time lapse seismic data to the compliance of hydraulic fractures
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology. Earth Resources Laboratory, 2013)We study the sensitivity of seismic waves to changes in the fracture normal and tangential compliances by analyzing the fracture sensitivity wave equation, which is derived by differentiating the elastic wave equation with ...
