  • System and method for preventing wellbore interactions
    Patent number: 11828171
    Abstract: A method is described for predicting and preventing wellbore interactions at wells that are near the injection well. The method includes receiving fiber optics data; performing object detection by detecting object-like events in the fiber optic data; and sending instructions to a hydraulic fracturing system based on the object detection. The method is executed by a computer system.
    Type: Grant

  • 4D noise suppression
    Patent number: 10605938
    Abstract: The present disclosure includes a method for suppressing 4D noise. The method includes calculating a first similarity map based on the similarity of one of one or more first 3D images and a second 3D image. The first and second 3D images are derived from first and second surveys, respectively. The method also includes calculating a second similarity map based on the similarity of one of the one or more first 3D images and a third 3D image, which is derived from the second survey. The method also includes calculating a third similarity map based on the similarity of first and second 4D images, which are based on differences between the 3D images. The method also includes generating a composite 4D image based at least on the first, second, and third similarity maps. The present disclosure may also include associated systems and apparatus.
