Advantages And Disadventages Of Surface And Downhole Seismic Illustrated By Processing Results Of 3D VSP And 3D+VSP
Authors A. Tabakov and K. BaranovComparative analysis of Surface Seismic (SS) and VSP shows that each application has its own advantages and disadvantages. Surface Seismic never provides true velocity model and true signature. This is the reason for low resolution and inefficient processing of converted PS waves. In fact modern SS is on the limit of efficiency being still inadequate in many applications. VSP provide true velocities and true signature but quickly loses its efficiency in the vicinity of well. This is shown as comparison between Walkaway and CDP section. Example of 3D+VSP processing results shown that in this combined application signature and velocity model from VSP may be used to improve efficiency of Surface Seismic.

Depth Migration Based On Integral Operators Of Continuation
Authors A. Merecky, V. A. Pozdniakov, A. A. Tuzovsky and V. V. ShilikovThe work offers integrated approach in depth section mapping based on continuation of wavefields recorded on land surface. Field is continued by integral operator, first proposed by Goldin. Geometric seismology laws are applied in the continued field. Besides, depending upon kernel of continuation operator, amplitudes of wave fronts change according to null approximation of ray-tracing method. Thus, the obtained continuation can be used for estimate of dynamic medium properties. Algorithm of wavefield continuation can be applied both for migrated sections imaging, and for measurement of medium velocity using focusing technique. Velocity analysis algorithm and depth migration results were studied on the example of one seismic profile.

Tube Waves Excitation In A Well, Intersected By Finite Size Fracture, Under Action Of External Seismic Wave
Authors A. V. Derov and G. MaximovThe problem on tube waves excitation in a well, intersected by thin fluidfilled fracture under action of external seismic wave is considered in the report. This situation arises in VSP practice at hydro-fracturing. Based on averaging procedure the non-uniform pseudo-differential wave equation for slow eigen mode in fluid-filled fracture is derived in space-time representation for the long wave approximation by fracture opening. Numerical calculations show that high dispersive slow eigen mode is excited by fracture edges. This mode generates additional tube waves in a well. Registration of these tube waves can be used for fracture size characterization.

Authors D. G. Touikov, A. Tabakov and A. BaevThis paper deals with the problem of initial conditions presetting for finitedifference wavefield modeling. Besides, one of the goals is choosing such initial estimate that is physically sufficient and quite accurate for further calculation without considerable errors relating to initial condition errors. The way for decreasing of initial errors and analysis of such methods from the point of view of calculation accuracy and computing resources are proposed.

The velocity model is constructed with smooth curvilinear reflective boundaries. Parameters approximation is guided with optimizing inversion of hodographs of direct, reflected and converted waves from different 3D VSP sources. Model hodographs are calculated with the using of ray method.

Technology Of Direct And Single-Reflected Elastic Waves Field Calculation For 3D Non-Parallel Layered Models
Authors A. A. Mukhin, A. V. Reshetnikov and I. A. GirmanThis work describes technology of elastic waves field computation for 3D non-parallel layered models. The technology is based on ray-method application. The idea is to separate calculations of the ray trajectories from source and receiver to the bound, instead of monitoring ray-trajectory directly from source to receiver. For each pair of source-receiver, at each border, we calculate surface sources (grid-defined functions of ray-in angle) and compare them to define the incident (reflection or refraction) points. This information allows to select and trace the rays, coming to the receiver with defined accuracy, and therefore to form the wave field.

Seismic Imaging Of VSP Data Based On Gaussian Beams
Authors D. A. Neklydov, М. I. Protasov and V. A. TcheverdaIn the paper is presented two seismic imaging approaches of VSP data which use Gaussian beams. Aim of the first algorithm is recovering of structural disruptions (faults etc.). In this case walk-away VSP data are used. These data are summed with specific weights that are Gaussian beams. The goal of the other procedure is recovering of the near borehole structure without any information about overburden. Here Gaussian beams are used in order to avoid migration artifacts.

Singular Value Decomposition Analysis Of Linearized Operator Of Dynamic Elasticity For Look-Ahead Prediction Using OVSP Data
More LessWith reference to the problem of look-ahead prediction using offset VSP data the singular value decomposition analysis of linearized operator of dynamic elasticity is presented. Such analysis allows to justify strictly main features of the problem that should be taken into account when the numerical algorithm for solving the inverse problem is developed. Using this analysis the optimal parametrization for inversion was founded out. It was shown that density can't be inverted. Also it was shown the principal impossibility of determining the smooth components of solution. These feature don't depend on the method of optimization because they defined by the linearized operator.

Phase-Vector Analysis Of Seismic Waves
More LessThe paper shows how types of waves can be determined from the manner they superpose on one another and how the moment this superposition occurs can be established at one station by analyzing phase and vector of seismic signal recorded with 3C geophones. Scanning seismic wave superposition vector helps determine P-wave raypath approach direction and separate such raypaths when they differ by as much as 0.5 degree. Analyzing phase and vector of two seismic waves in superposition helps determine wave type and the moment in time one wave gets superposed on another at superposition reaching 90%.

Modified Reverse-Time Migration Applied To Imaging Of Offset Vsp Data With Unknown Overburden In Complex Areas
Authors Dmitry Neklyudov and Igor BorodinIn this paper we propose a modified Reverse-Time Migration algorithm applied to OVSP data which gives a possibility to reconstruct depth structure image having no knowledge about overburden by using original registered seismograms without their redatuming. Velocity model estimated in some depth interval in vicinity of borehole can be used for migration. Its main feature is approximation of source wavefield in the target area using downgoing wavefield registered in a borehole. To do it one needs to perform back-in-time extrapolation of downgoing wavefield using finite-difference (FD) scheme for solving the scalar wave-equation (or using FD for elasticity). It is possible to migrate PP-reflections or transmitted PS-converted waves for formation boundaries or salt flank imaging. Our numerous experiments with synthetic and field OVSP data demonstrate that modified RTM provides a good quality image in complex geological conditions.

About Possibility Using Of Spectral Characteristics Ofseismic Field Formed In Hydrocarbon Accumulation To Detect And Continue Reservoir
Authors G. V. Golikova and M. V. ChizhovaThis work is based on the previous results of the wave reconstruction in fluidsaturated interval of section. We investigate frequency structure of field in the system of fluidsaturated layers. Also we propose there is partial slippage in the contacts between the layers. By using the VSP observations and the data of GIS curves the model of multilayer deposits is constructed. We demonstrate that theoretical spectrum is in good agreement with experiment. Thus some interpretation of experimental curves are realized.

Authors M. V. Chertenkov, A. N. Kasimov, V. V. Kim, A. Pokul and T. N. KuptsovaPermeability is the major rock property, which define fluid migration ability though pores, vugs and fractures. Pore’s, fracture’s and vug’s carbonate reservoirs vary in value of permeability and property of its distribution by 3 main axes (directions). A fractures reservoir differs from others by high permeability anisotropy.
