Microseismic monitoring plays a unique and crucial role in the optimization of returns and minimization of risks from reservoir engineering operations. Applied Seismology Consulting works in partnership with leading vendors of surface and downhole seismic monitoring equipment to provide a full solution tailored to the monitoring objectives. We cover the full workflow, from monitoring array design and optimisation to the interpretation of recorded microseismic streams.
Seismic and microseismic monitoring are unique technologies to image and quantify the impact and effectiveness of reservoir stimulation. Seismic parameters allow the characterisation and imaging of induced and mobilised fracture networks. Seismic analysis combined with geomechanical models provide a better understanding of the fracturing processes in the reservoir and the environment allowing the adoption of control and optimisation measures.
Advanced post-processing, analysis and interpretation of client data using a range of techniques and software functionality developed in-house.
