Abstract: A system and method of analysing drilling cuttings using image data output from a hyperspectral imaging device and at least one optical camera, includes generating a hyperspectral imaging data set including a plurality of lines of hyperspectral data derived from line images taken by the hyperspectral imaging device positioned along a drilling fluid cuttings path, obtaining tracking information in respect of particles of interest from the output of the at least one optical camera, correcting the position of pixels associated with particles of interest in the plurality of lines of hyperspectral imaging data based on the obtained tracking information to generate corrected hyperspectral imaging data, and analysing the corrected hyperspectral imaging data to characterise the cuttings.

Abstract: A technique includes receiving a first dataset that is indicative of seismic data acquired in a seismic survey of a field of wells and receiving a second dataset that is indicative of wellbore data acquired in a wellbore survey conducted in at least one of the wells. The technique includes determining a mechanical earth model for the field based at least in part on the seismic data and the wellbore data.

Abstract: Methods of and apparatus to image one or more subsurface formation features are disclosed. An example method includes generating acoustic waves with a transmitter and receiving the acoustic waves and acoustic data contained therein at one or more receivers. The example method also includes extracting one or more S-S, P-S or S-P reflected waveform data from the acoustic data, estimating a dip of the one or more subsurface formation features, migrating the one or more S-S, P-S or S-P reflected waveform data with the estimated dip and mapping the migrated one or more S-S, P-S or S-P reflected waveform data. In addition, the example method includes identifying one or more permeable subsurface formation features using the mapped migrated one or more S-S, P-S or S-P reflected waveform data.
