Abstract:Vertical seismic profile (VSP) data is a powerful calibration tool that helps to link the time (surface seismic) & depth domains (well logs). Conventional rig source VSP data is not recommended to be used in a highly deviated well for seismic calibration. Excessive ray bending from the source-receiver offset will cause errors in the vertical time calculations, and this data will not be reliable to calibrate the surface seismic. This paper will discuss a case-study for a highly deviated offshore well using … Show more
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.
