Chapter 4 Seismic Reservoir Monitoring
Abstract
Seismic reservoir monitoring is normally done by comparing the results of repeated seismic reflection surveys over the same area. This technique is known as time lapse or four-dimensional (4D) seismic, where the fourth dimension is time. 4D reservoir monitoring involves acquisition, processing, and interpretation of repeated seismic data over a field to monitor the changes occurring in the reservoir either due to production of hydrocarbons or enhanced oil recovery/improved oil recovery (EOR/IOR)-related changes, ...
