Full-wave imaging solves gas test

摘要

Multicomponent sensors have been successfully utilized to image clastic gas reservoirs in the Carpathian Foredeep in Poland. Today's new generation of digital full-wave seismic technology enables acquisition of improved seismic images and identification of reservoir parameters that have proven useful in solving exploration and production problems, including improved structural interpretations and validation of amplitude anomalies in onshore clastic gas reservoirs. One onshore gas trend with these interpretation challenges is the Miocene gas trend in the Carpathian Foredeep of southern Poland. This article covers how Geofizyka Torun, a Polish seismic acquisition contractor active for the last 40 years, is using full-wave imaging technology to address these imaging challenges. Geofizyka Torun began experimenting with full-wave seismic surveys 5 years ago using seismic field acquisition equipment developed by Input/Output (I/O) and internally developed multicomponent processing techniques. For the last few years, I/O has been developing next-generation land seismic acquisition equipment to accelerate the digital full-wave era of seismic imaging.
