  • Patent number: 11733416
    Abstract: A method includes receiving a seismic data volume comprising seismic information of subterranean formations and receiving a set of seismic traces of the seismic data volume. The method also includes, determining, along each seismic trace of the set of seismic traces, a set of seed points comprising minimum or maximum onsets. Further, the method includes sorting the set of seed points into a sorted set of seed points by absolute amplitude values of the set of seed points. Furthermore, the method includes generating a horizon representation of every seismic event in the seismic data volume by automatically tracking horizons throughout an entirety of the seismic data volume from the sorted set of seed points in an order of the absolute amplitude values of the sorted set of seed points. Additionally, the method includes generating a graphical user interface that includes the horizon representation for display on a display device.

  • Patent number: 11668284
    Abstract: The present invention is a method of determining an induction factor of the wind for a wind turbine (1) equipped with a LiDAR sensor (2). For this method, wind speed measurements are performed in measurement planes (PM) by use of LiDAR sensor (2), then induction factors between measurement planes (PM) are determined by use of the measurements and of a first linear Kalman filter, and the induction factor between a measurement plane (PM) and the rotor plane (PR) of wind turbine (1) is determined by a second linear Kalman filter.

  • Patent number: 11643920
    Abstract: A method includes deploying a logging tool in a borehole formed in a subsurface formation, the logging tool having a transmitter and a receiver, wherein a condition that is present during logging comprises at least one of a shape of the borehole is non-circular and the logging tool is off-center within the borehole. The method includes emitting, by the transmitter, a signal into subsurface formation and detecting, by the receiver, a response to the signal being propagated through the subsurface formation. The method includes creating, from the response, a borehole image that includes features in the subsurface formation and correcting the features, wherein correcting the features comprises mapping points of a non-circular shape in the borehole image into a plane substantially perpendicular to an axis of the borehole.

  • Publication number: 20230117096
    Abstract: Hydrocarbon exploration and extraction can be facilitated by determining fault surfaces from fault attribute volumes. For example, a system described herein can receive a fault attribute volume for faults in a subterranean formation determined using seismic data. The fault attribute volume may include multiple traces with trace locations. The system can determine a set of fault samples for each trace location. Each fault sample can include fault attributes such as a depth value, an amplitude value, and a vertical thickness value. The system can determine additional fault attributes such as a dip value and an azimuth value for each fault sample of each trace location. The system can determine fault surfaces for the faults using the fault samples and fault attributes. The system can then output the fault surfaces for use in a hydrocarbon extraction operation.

  • Patent number: 11578588
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for processing broadband acoustic signals acquired by a plurality of acoustic sensors, using an array-signal-processing technique to compute fused-signal maps in the frequency domain for a plurality of frequency bins. In accordance with various embodiments, the fused-signal maps are combined across the frequency bins, with respective weightings that are based on eigenvalues of covariance matrices computed for the plurality of frequency bins. The combined maps can be used to locate an acoustic source in a wellbore.

  • Publication number: 20220348400
    Abstract: A gas turbine storage container is composed of a horizontal cylindrical shell with openings at two opposite ends of the cylinder, outside is designed with frames to keep it fixed and has straps to install ropes when hoisting. The inside of the cylindrical shell is pumped with inert gas and contains desiccant. The engine is housed in a mount that can be fixed to the inside of the box, and has wheels to make it possible to move it out of the box. A sensor system that measures the temperature and humidity status inside the cylindrical shell can provide information about the quality of the gas stored in the cylindrical shell in real time without opening.
