We present processing methods and results from a passive low-frequency (LF) seismic campaign over a giant producing oil field in Abu Dhabi. Processing methods include ambient wave field analysis and the mitigation of the influence of anthropogenic infrastructure noise. Without careful processing to remove these components of the ambient wave field, data are strictly measures of human activity. However, spatially and temporally consistent energy anomalies on the vertical component cluster within the center of the survey area. Available current reservoir data show some correlation with the energy attributes calculated with two different methods.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
