Time-Lapse Seismic Monitoring and Dynamic Reservoir Characterization. Central Vacuum unit, Lea Country, New Mexico

摘要

The Reservoir Characterization Project(RCP) is an industry sponsored consortium whose mission is to develop and apply 3-D and 4-D("time-lapse"), 3-C seismology and associated technologeis to improve reservoir performance and hydrocabon recovery while reducing environmental impact. RCP Phase VI is the multidisciplinary, 4-D, 3-C study of a CO_2 injection project in Vacuum field, a shallow shelf carbonate reservoir located on the Northwestern Shelf of the Permian Basin of West Texas and Southeastern New Mexico.
