The most utilized technique for exploring the Earth's subsurface for petroleum is reflection seismology. However, a sole focus on reflection seismology often misses opportunities to integrate other geophysical techniques such as gravity, magnetic, resistivity, and other seismicity techniques, which have tended to be used in isolation and by specialist teams. There is now growing appreciation that these technologies used in combination with reflection seismology can produce more accurate images of the subsurface. This book describes how these different field techniques can be used individually and in combination with each other and with seismic reflection data. World leading experts present chapters covering different techniques and describe when, where, and how to apply them to improve petroleum exploration and production. It also explores the use of such techniques in monitoring CO2 storage reservoirs. Including case studies throughout, it will be an invaluable resource for petroleum industry professionals, advanced students, and researchers.
Read more- Demonstrates the benefits of integration of the various geophysical technologies, which will aid in making critical business decisions and reduce uncertainty and risk in petroleum exploration and production
- Indicates what optimal technology combinations are best to overcome these uncertainties
- Provides a succinct introduction to the scientific basis and use of geophysical technologies that are usually confined to the realm of specialist practitioners, making these accessible to generalist petroleum industry professionals and managers
