... data after azimuth division can be further used to characterize the fracture development density. This method is successfully applied in the prediction of buried hill fractured reservoirs in B gas field in Bohai Bay and can further release the potential of a large number of marine narrow azimuth data...

... Borehole log techniques have long been well established in the industrial and academic fields. They had worked in the estimate of porosity and permeability of consolidated rocks in a satisfactory form. However, in this work, it was shown that in fractured reservoirs, they do not work fine...

... ABSTRACT The dense geometry of a 3D VSP survey which was carried out in an oilfield located in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, United Arab Emirates, enables us to perform high resolution azimuthal study of seismic wave attenuation, in order to investigate a fractured reservoir in the oilfield. We...

... Summary In this paper we present a workflow to build permeability models for flow simulation in naturally fractured reservoirs constrained by 3D seismic, geologic data and concepts, geomechanics observations, and dynamic data. Joints and faults are modeled separately to account...

... and image the extent of fractures. Ray-trace modeling was conducted to explore P-wave reflection and reflection-angle coverage for a layered model with a fractured reservoir. Waveform data were simulated for two types of fracture models using full-elastic, anisotropic algorithms. Analyses of the reflection...

... ABSTRACT Based on the anisotropic theory, the fractured reservoir with the horizontal axis of symmetry and high angle may display the characteristics of horizontal transverse isotropy (HTI). Fracture prediction using the HTI anisotropic theory plays a significant role in identifying reservoir...

... ABSTRACT The biggest challenge in evaluation of fractured reservoir in buried hill is how to verify the effective fractures' distribution. This paper presents a joint-analysis to estimate the relationship between thickness of effective fractures and seismic attributes. Structural fractures...

... Summary Here, we show a case study of the contribution of the seismic anisotropy in the characterization of a tight sand fractured reservoir located in the Algerian Sahara using shear wave anisotropy. Data of recorded by the sonic scanner tools are used, the tool records the fast and slow...

... effective fractured reservoirs. Introduction Characterization of the saturated porous rocks with aligned fractures is of great importance in exploration and production of fractured reservoirs. The most widely accepted models for fractured reservoirs are linear-slip model ( Schoenberg, 1980; Schoenberg...

... demonstrates that the QVAz method discussed in this paper are feasible and effective in characterization of the fractured reservoirs. Introduction Fractures are a crucial factor controlling the well performance in reservoirs, especially with low permeability. In recent years, the analysis of fracture...

... Summary Seismic curvature is a useful second-order geometric attribute and has demonstrated its value for structure analysis, especially for fracture characterization in fractured reservoirs. Our recent efforts have been primarily focused on computing most extreme (signed maximum) curvature...

... Summary Fractured reservoirs represent important hydrocarbon reserves but are often associated with low recovery rate. The goal of increasing extraction of oil and gas from such reservoirs will be greatly increased by having information about subsurface fractures such as fracture orientation...

... Summary Fractured reservoirs represent a globally significant play type and are found in most petroleum basins with estimates suggesting that sixty percent of the reservoirs around the world are affected by fractures. Fracture sets in the strata often exhibit attenuation anisotropy...

This paper aims to present joint P-P and P-SV wave AVO inversion method to estimate P-wave impedance, S-wave impedance, and anisotropic gradient reliably in vertically fractured reservoirs. This paper begins with the simplification...

... Summary Hydraulic fracturing is an important technique to allow mobilization of hydrocarbons in tight reservoirs. Sand or ceramic proppant is pumped into the fractured reservoir to ensure fractures remain open and permeable after the hydraulic treatment. As such, the distribution of proppant...
