  • APPARATUS, METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR MAPPING FRACTURE FEATURES IN HYDRAULICALLY FRACTURED STRATA USING FUNCTIONAL PROPPANT PROPERTIES
    Publication number: 20130154846
    Abstract: System and method for deploying multiple antennas in an array configuration with unobstructed electromagnetic access to a formation outside of a casing, sequencing the transmitted signal to control the direction of transmission into the formation, receiving the reflected signals, and locating the position of the reflection based on the scanned transmission signal orientation and the direction of the received signal. Such a deployment of an antenna array with unobstructed electromagnetic access to the formation outside of the casing, sequencing of the interrogation signal, and analysis of the received signal relative to the transmitted signal direction form the basis for reflection image rendering as the transmitted signal is scanned by a sequenced stimulus signal.
