We propose a post-migration 3D Q compensation process in the depth domain that is accurate for complex geological structures, accommodates complex Q models, and also provides flexibility in noise handling and spectral control that is critical to AVA recovery.
In this paper, we look at the HeliFalcon AGG survey conducted in the Aso-Oguni area exploring for geothermal fields, examine the technical challenges presented by the rugged terrains, describe some aspects of the data acquisition and processing, and present the survey results.
In this paper, we present an integrated study that combines geophysical and geological approaches to perform porosity estimation and populate the reservoir geological model with the estimated property. For pre-salt oilfields, due to the complex porosity distribution in carbonate reservoirs, predicting a reliable porosity ...
In order to solve the challenges of imaging the shallow reservoirs of the Barents Sea, CGG, in collaboration with Lundin Norway, have developed an innovative source-over-spread acquisition solution, known as TopSeis. This addresses the lack of near-offset data recorded in conventional towed-streamer acquisition by ...
This study uses multiple wells with high-quality acoustic and density logs to demonstrate a rock physics workflow for determining dynamic Biots’s coefficient from detailed petrophysical evaluation. One of the important inputs needed for determining dynamic Biots’s coefficient is a detailed interpretation of the rock ...
In deep-water depositional systems such as the slope canyon-turbidite channel system encountered on the continental slope, offshore West Nile Delta Basin, deterministic prestack seismic inversion followed by facies classification delineated thick-bedded and thin-bedded gas-sand reservoirs encased in bypassed stratigraphic traps and also delineated prospective ...
Many hydrophone-only receiver deghosting approaches assume a stationary free surface profile, or that the data may be represented by linear events within a small spatial aperture. In this paper we propose methods to address these limitations. Firstly, we describe a data-driven methodology to estimate ...
The standard processing approach to transform raw shots records into final products suited to geological interpretation involves cascading numerous steps that can be classified in: pre-processing, which aims at correcting the acquisition imperfections or undesired effects (designature, deghosting, geometry), velocity model building which identifies ...
A high-resolution regional seismic, gravity and magnetics dataset was acquired offshore southern Gabon, which allowed an in-depth and integrated approach for analyzing the crustal setting in this area. Detailed analysis of the datasets available, and 3D modeling of the crust over this region, suggests ...
