  • Detection of near subsurface voids that are resistive or contain conductive elements within the void space
    Publication number: 20230003915
    Abstract: A system and techniques for detecting near-subsurface voids in the earth use a controlled source electromagnetic transmitter and a plurality of controlled source electromagnetic receivers. Signals received by the plurality of controlled source electromagnetic receivers corresponding to signals generated by the controlled source electromagnetic transmitter are analyzed. Bi-static doublets detected in the received signals are used to identify the location of the near-subsurface voids.

  • Reflectivity and fracing
    Patent number: 10401524
    Abstract: A system and method allows determining the movement of subsurface fluids, gases or solids in the subsurface structure of interest. This allows quantitatively determining the results of surface and subsurface equipment and materials changes. These simple observations may result in significant improvements in field efficiency.

  • Fiber optic sensor array for electromagnetic data collection
    Patent number: 10254426
    Abstract: An electromagnetic sensitive fiber optic sensor, including a cylinder portion with a hole through the center, where a surface of the cylinder portion includes a magnetostrictive material, and a fiber cable threaded through the cylinder portion and wrapped around the cylinder portion multiple times. In another embodiment, a mandrel surrounds a magnetorestrictive or piezoelectric material and the fiber cable is wrapped around the mandrel.
