The purpose of this book is to give a theoretical and practical
introduction to seismic-while-drilling by using the drill-bit
noise. This recent technology offers important products for
geophysical control of drilling. It involves aspects typical of
borehole seismics and of the drilling control surveying, hitherto
the sole domain of mudlogging.
For aspects related to the drill-bit source performance and
borehole acoustics, the book attempts to provide a connection
between experts working in geophysics and in drilling.
There are different ways of thinking related to basic knowledge,
operational procedures and precision in the observation of the
physical quantities. The goal of the book is to help "build a
bridge" between geophysicists involved in seismic while drilling -
who may need to familiarize themselves with methods and procedures
of drilling and drilling-rock mechanics - and drillers involved in
geosteering and drilling of "smart wells" - who may have to
familiarize themselves with seismic signals, wave resolution and
radiation. For instance, an argument of common interest for
drilling and seismic while drilling studies is the monitoring of
the drill-string and bit vibrations.
This volume contains a large number of real examples of SWD data
analysis and applications.
