Abstract
A007 MICROSEISMIC MONITORING OF THE YIBAL OILFIELD JONES RH 1 RAYMER D 1 MUELLER G 2 RYNJA H 2 MARON K 3 Introduction 1 In February 2002 ABB Offshore Systems (ABB) and Petroleum Development Oman (PDO) initiated a collaborative microseismic (passive seismic) monitoring trial in the Yibal field Oman. Technical support to the project was also supplied from Shell E&P Technology and Research (SepTAR). The overall project objective was to acquire a large data set of production induced microseismic activity and investigate how this data could be used to monitor the movement of fluids map changes in reservoir stresses due
