    摘要: Systems and methods are disclosed. The method includes determining first metadata for a first seismic data file from a first database, generating a control file using the first metadata, and converting the first seismic data file in a predetermined file format to a destination file format using the control file. The first metadata comprises first values of a first plurality of seismic survey geometry parameters. The method further includes storing a first metadata file in a second database, wherein the first metadata file comprises the first metadata, and storing the first seismic data file in the destination file format in the second database. The method still further includes determining whether the first values of the first plurality of seismic survey geometry parameters duplicate second values of the first plurality of seismic survey geometry parameters.

    摘要: A system for processing DAS VSP surveys is provided. The system includes a DAS data collection system coupled to at least one optical fiber at least partially positioned within a wellbore and configured to either activate or passively listen to a seismic source of energy for one or more times. The system further includes an information processing system connected to the DAS data collection system. A seismic dataset is received from the DAS data collection system recorded in a spatiotemporal domain. The seismic dataset is converted into intercept-time ray-parameter domain dataset. Local apparent slope is determined for each seismic signal in the received seismic dataset. Amplitude correction is performed for the received seismic signals by using the slowness profile and the determined local apparent slope in the intercept-time ray-parameter domain dataset. The corrected intercept-time ray-parameter domain dataset is converted back into the spatiotemporal domain.

    摘要: A method may comprise recording a first reflected waveform with a first transducer to form a first data set from a first excitation, recording a second reflected waveform with a second transducer to form a second data set from a second excitation, estimating a first sensitivity correction factor for the first data set, applying the first sensitivity correction factor to at least a portion of the first data set to form a first sensitivity corrected data set. The method may further comprise estimating a second sensitivity correction factor for the second data set, applying the second sensitivity correction factor to at least a portion of the second data set to form a second sensitivity corrected data set, stacking the first sensitivity corrected data set amplitudes and forming a first image, stacking the second sensitivity corrected data set amplitudes and forming a second image, and comparing the images.

    摘要: Externally generated noise can be coupled into a fluid carrying structure such as a pipe, well, or borehole so as to artificially acoustically “illuminate” the pipe, well, or borehole, and allow fluid flow in the structure or structural integrity to be determined. In the disclosed system, externally generated noise is coupled into the structure being monitored at the same time as data logging required to undertake the monitoring is performed. This has three effects. First, the externally generated sound is coupled into the structure so as to “illuminate” acoustically the structure to allow data to be collected from which fluid flow may be determined, and secondly the amount of data that need be collected is reduced, as there is no need to log data when the structure is not being illuminated. Thirdly, there are signal processing advantages in having the data logging being undertaken only when the acoustic illumination occurs.

    摘要: Techniques for determining a wellbore drilling path includes identifying input seismic data associated with a subterranean zone that includes a wellbore drilling target. The input seismic data includes primary seismic events and multiple seismic events. The input seismic data is processed to remove the multiple seismic events and at least one of the primary seismic events from the input seismic data. An orthogonalization of the processed input seismic data is performed to recover the at least one primary seismic event into a seismic image of the subterranean zone that excludes at least a portion of the multiple seismic events. A wellbore path is determined from a terranean surface toward the wellbore drilling target for a drilling geo-steering system based on the seismic image of the subterranean zone.
