| 摘要 |
<p>The present invention provides a technique to separate compressional seismic waves from shear seismic waves and to determine their direction of propagation to enhance the seismic monitoring oil and gas reservoirs and the seismic monitoring of hydrofracturing in oil and gas wells. The invention utilizes various combinations of multi-component linear seismic sensors, multi-component rotational seismic sensors, and pressure sensors. Sensors are jointly deployed in arrays of shallow monitoring wells to avoid the complicating effects of the free surface of the earth. The emplacement of sensors in the shallow monitoring wells may be permanent. The method has a wide range of application in oil and gas exploration and production. This abstract is not intended to be used to interpret or limit the claims of this invention.</p> |
