IDENTIFYING RESERVOIR DRAINAGE PATTERNS FROM MICROSEISMIC DATA

摘要

A method and system for identifying reservoir drainage patterns from microseismic data for illustrating flow paths towards ports. The method includes: determining moment tensor data for each of a plurality of microseismic events in the reservoir; inferring crack formation data in the reservoir in dependence on the moment tensor data; and calculating stream lines that represent predicted flow of fluids through the reservoir in dependence on the inferred crack formation data.
