Using the direct seismic responses of fractures and fracture zones
in productive formations to obtain information about their
locations and characteristics is an essentially new and promising
direction of investigation. Given the growing production of
hydrocarbons from unconventional reservoirs, the basic
understanding of seismic wave responses of natural and hydraulic
fractures is urgently needed, and the ability to model those waves
is a necessary first step toward detection and more accurate
characterization of fractured reservoirs and through this process
toward improved oil production. This book addresses the properties
of seismic waves of fractured media by describing, modeling, and
analyzing the various seismic wave responses from discrete
fractured media, and it proposes a methodology for the direct
detection of fractured reservoirs based on these analyses. Use of
the grid-characteristic method to numerically model the waves
allows for the inclusion of fundamental properties of real
fractured reservoirs and fractured features in the analysis.
Importantly, this method facilitates a highly accurate computation
of wave propagation that accounts for the multiple discreteness of
the medium. Of use to oil company geophysicists and geologists
directly involved in interpretation of seismic data acquired from
prospects of fractured reservoir development, this book also will
be of interest to scientific workers in universities (particularly
postgraduate students) and R&D departments of geophysical and
oil companies.
