Real Time Offshore Monitoring - Key Learnings - Pitfalls and Potentials

Microseismic monitoring with ocean bottom data is still in its infancy compared to onshore microseismic. A compact PRM system was installed at the Oseberg field in order to monitor a shallow injection well, and in this presentation we have gathered some insights from this project. In addition we compare some properties of the P- and S-wave phases based on modelled microseismic events and we give practical recommendations which will benefit future applications of this technology.
