  4. passive seismic imaging at Valhall Brad Artman, Stanford Exploration Project –Advanced imaging team Monday, September 27

  5. passive seismology • not event location • structural imaging • reflection seismology: subsurface investigation from the time-delayed reflections of sound off of geologic variations. • passive imaging: with no application of controlled experimental sources, a relationship between a recorded transmission wavefield and reflection wavefields is required. • requires: stationary seismometers, lots of disk space

  6. crustal scale exploration

  7. earthquake energy

  8. capitalizing on ambient noise • earthquake arrivals • ocean waves • wind vibrations coupled with foundations • cultural activity • vehicle and boat traffic • drilling noise • nearby seismic acquisition

  9. Valhall • one of the North sea giant fields • partners Amerada Hess, Shell and Total • reservoir highly porous chalk • first production 1982 • field life 2028 • field production 90,000 bpd/day • expected ultimate recovery 1,050 mm stb oil • produced to date (01.01.2003) 500 mm stb oil • remaining reserves 540 mm stb oil • high activity level – new wells & well work

  10. Valhall Life of Field Seismic (LoFS) • Permanent field wide seismic array installed at Valhall during 2003 • 120 km seismic cables • 2414 groups of 4C sensors • Covers 45sq km • 3 seismic surveys acquired, 4th to be acquired mid-September

  11. state of the art airgun array carried by stand-by boat – 53,000 shots per survey ~1/2 cost of LoFS installations related to the source operations

  12. passive seismology by correlation • why image? • linearity of wavefield extrapolation • application to Valhall LoFS • why try passive seismic imaging? • future plans

  29. imaging advantages • poor data quality mandates imaging • transformation from transmission to reflection wavefield can be accomplished along the way • saves time • n instead of n2 traces • removes IFFT of n2 (long) traces • trace length difference ~cancels strict compute cost savings • file i/o provides big savings • 1 shot of n traces vs. n shots of n traces • multiple image-space summations
