  • Publication number: 20250012940
    Abstract: Processes and systems for microseismic event detection. In some embodiments, the process can include acquiring seismic data with a dense seismic receiver array; converting seismic data into an image domain dataset; detecting one or more seismic waveform edges; characterizing within the image domain dataset one or more linear segments which each define a portion of one or more of the one or more seismic waveform edges, and wherein the linear segments are functions of one or more seismic arrival times and one or more subterranean depths; and estimating the subterranean depth of the one or more microseismic events within a subterranean formation based on the one or more linear segments.

  • Patent number: 12135399
    Abstract: A method for optimizing a seismic survey design includes obtaining a well trajectory, determining a depth range and a measurement interval for the seismic survey, determining an optimal seismic shot position for each receiver within the depth range using an inverse function, determining one or more potential seismic shot configurations that each include a number of seismic shots, a location for each of the number of seismic shots, and a power of each of the seismic shots, determining an estimate of a data quality for each of the determined one or more potential seismic shot configurations using an objective function, and determining an optimum seismic survey design based on the determined estimated data quality for each of the determined one or more potential seismic shot configurations, wherein the estimated data quality for the optimum seismic survey design is greater than a predetermined minimum threshold.

  • Publication number: 20220335185
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method comprising: receiving a resource model associated with a resource site and receiving one or more objective parameters, such that a first objective parameter comprised in the one or more objective parameters is a function of one or more parameter values of the resource model. The method comprises executing simulations to generate a first uncertainty value based on at least one of a first parameter value and a first uncertainty value of a first parameter of the resource model. The simulations may be executed to generate a first forecast uncertainty value for each scenario comprised in a plurality of scenarios. The method also identifies one service that minimizes an uncertainty value of the objective parameter based on the forecast uncertainty value. The method further includes generating a first visualization comprising the one identified service for viewing by a user via a user interface.

  • Publication number: 20220243575
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a system that is operable to receive an execution plan and execute a control operation on one or more equipment based operations within the execution plan. The one or more operations may include a data capturing operation associated with a resource site. In one embodiment, the system may be operable to execute at least a first operation in response to a success variable of the data capturing operation indicating a successful execution of the data capturing operation. The first operation may include a quality control operation that is executed by comparing at least one characteristic of the captured data to an expected characteristic to generate quality state data. The quality state data may have one of an acceptable status and an undesirable status. In response to the quality state data indicating an acceptable status for the quality control operation, executing at least a second operation.
