A closer look at rock physics models and their assisted interpretation in seismic exploration
Subsurface rocks and their fluid content along with their architecture affect reflected seismic waves through variations in their travel time, reflection amplitude, and phase within the field of exploration seismology. The combined effects of these factors make subsurface interpretation by using reflection waves very difficult. Therefore, assistance from other subsurface disciplines is needed i...
متن کاملIssues in rock physics and implications for DHI interpretation
Seismic techniques for direct hydrocarbon indication rely on the changes in seismic character which accompany changes in pore fluid content. Interpretation and modeling of direct hydrocarbon indicators (DHIs) require an understanding of the factors affecting seismic velocities and reflection coefficients which are, in turn, dependent on pore fluid properties, rock frame properties, and fluid su...
متن کاملA new brittleness index for estimation of rock fracture toughness
Assessment of the correlation between rock brittleness and rock fracture toughness has been the subject of extensive research works in the recent years. Unfortunately, the brittleness measurement methods have not yet been standardized, and rock fracture toughness cannot be estimated satisfactorily by the proposed indices. In the present study, statistical analyses are performed on some data col...
متن کاملRock physics characterization of shale reservoirs: a case study
Unconventional resources are typically very complex to model, and the production from this type of reservoirs is influenced by such complexity in their microstructure. This microstructure complexity is normally reflected in their geophysical response, and makes them more difficult to interpret. Rock physics play an important role to resolve such complexity by integrating different subsurface di...
متن کاملAssisted Seismic Matching: Joint Inversion of Seismic, Rock Physics and Basin Modeling
In this study, we apply advanced numerical optimization techniques to extend the work of Imhof and Sharma (2005, 2006) to integrate geological and geophysical data and infer the sedimentary parameters that produce a match to seismic data. In particular, we seek to match not just event timing (phase) but also reflection strength (amplitude). This inverse problem of quantitatively matching presen...
