Use of Full Azimuth Seismic and Microseismic for Unconventional Plays - FAMS |
Discipline: Geophysics Level: Specialized Duration: 5 days Instructor(s): Heloise Lynn |
For surface seismic, participants will learn to evaluate azimuthal seismic in fractured reservoirs or resource intervals needing hydro-fracturing. The course presents reflection seismic and microseismic acquisition-design, processing, interpretation, and integrating support data narrow-azimuth seismic, well logs, production tests, VSPs, and core work. For microseismic, participants will learn the strengths, weaknesses, limitations, and benefits of microseismic imaging of hydraulic fractures. "All young/old earth scientists in unconventionals need this course. I enjoyed thinking about the more complex levels of how to model AVO, and the azimuthal cases." - Geophysicist "Amazing, very knowledgeable and great instructor." - Geophysicist IT |
Designed For: For surface seismic, experienced geoscientists working seismic to evaluate unconventional resources, and/or fractured reservoirs that require hydraulic stimulation. For microseismic, all professionals using microseismicity to plan, monitor, evaluate, and diagnose stimulations will find this course useful. |

Instructors: DR. HELOISE LYNN specializes in the expression and use of anisotropy in multi-dimensional datasets (multi-azimuth, multi-component, and time lapse), 3D azimuthal seismic acquisition design, azimuthal seismic processing, and azimuthal seismic interpretation. As a geophysicist in the oil and gas industry since 1975, she is knowledgeable about seismic reflection data acquisition, processing, and interpretation, and how anisotropy affects these endeavors. Her industry work during the last 44 years has also included use of VSP (vertical seismic profile data), wireline log data, lab data, core data reports, microseismic, production data, and other support data from engineers, geologists, and petrophysicists. She offers clients library searches for suitable seismic data for sale, acquisition design for new 3D seismic, supervision of re-processing said data for specific client goals (via the best contractor for the job), and interpretation to establish commercial hydrocarbon production.
