| Summary: | Introduction to Petroleum Seismology, second edition, provides the theoretical and practical foundation for tackling present and future challenges of petroleum seismology, especially those related to seismic survey designs, seismic data acquisition, seismic and EM modeling, seismic imaging, microseismicity and reservoir characterization and monitoring. The initial chapters progress from the first principles of physics to the fundamentals of elastodynamic wave propagation. Then modern developments in petroleum seismology are discussed, including multicomponent data, wavefield decomposition, multiple elimination, amplitude variation with offset and azimuth analysis and inversion, anisotropy, linear anelasticity and nonlinear elasticity. Aspects of Fourier and wavelet representations of seismic signals and of seismic data-driven transformations of seismic data are addressed. The fundamentals of higher-order statistics and sparsity-based optimization for analyzing seismic signals are described, as are sparsity-based-optimization techniques for seismic data decomposition, interpretation and imaging. In addition to extensive revisions to the chapters of the first edition, twelve new chapters develop advanced topics including seismic interpretation, nonlinear inversion, near-simultaneous multiple shooting, non-uniform wavefield sampling, seismic and EM equivalences and microseismicity. Each chapter contains both analytical and computational exercises, and applicable MatLab codes, to help readers improve their understanding of and intuition about the material. |
