The authors of this paper present a novel joint-domain full waveform inversion framework optimizing travel-time accuracy in both data and model domains.

The main goal of this research work was to determine subseismic faults and fracture corridors and their characteristics, including density and orientation, for a Paleocene fractured carbonate reservoir.

In this paper, an energy-based 3D fracture-reconstruction method is proposed to derive the complex fracture network from microseismic data in a shale gas reservoir.

Technical papers reviewed for this feature are laden with novel technology borne of the quest to understand and solve complex geological structures and features that ultimately will improve our collective effort toward fostering efficient energy production. The three papers presented here are focused on innovative approaches to handling such complexities.

Updates about global exploration and production activities and developments.

The companies have finished a seismic survey of an underexplored area of the Bonaparte Basin offshore northwest Australia.

This paper discusses the approach used to sectorize a mature giant carbonate reservoir located onshore Abu Dhabi for the purposes of reservoir management, offtake, and injection balancing.

Since the late 1930s, the offshore industry has advanced from the first platform in 14 ft of water to the ultradeepwater 20K era. Driven by seismic, drilling, and development breakthroughs, the industry has pushed into deeper waters, high-pressure reservoirs, and new frontiers like Guyana, continually expanding the limits of offshore exploration.

The Norwegian data company has launched a 3D seismic survey in the Equatorial Margin area.

Reducing greenhouse-gas emissions with geologic carbon storage will require a new way to model rock physics.
