Electromagnetic Seabed Logging
Author: Stéphane Sainson
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3319453556
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 549
Book Description
Seabed logging (SBL) gathers the electromagnetic methods of marine subsoil exploration and more specifically those dedicated to the exploration of oil and gas at sea. Appeared in 2000, these techniques, with more than 500 industrial jobs, present after 15 years of commercial success a discovery record rate of nearly 90 % and seem now to turn the world in the offshore exploration field. Proposing a serious index of the presence of hydrocarbons , electromagnetic SBL coupled with seismic reflection survey is probably the first reliable method for direct detection of hydrocarbons. Complementing the structural concepts of oil exploration used since the 1920s, the SBL now radically modifies the approach and the philosophies of exploration especially those then including drilling and well logging activities. Electromagnetic Seabed Logging: a new tool for oil and gas prospecting, which original publication in French was in 2012, presents these methods, its principles, advantages, limitations, instruments, modeling and applications. It is also designed to be a tool for a reflection on the use of electromagnetic energy for the exploration in a conductive medium as sea water thus setting the theoretical and practical limits of these investigations for future developments. This book is intended of course for the geophysicists and the petroleum geologists, but also for the earth scientists, the reservoir engineers and the log analysts

Électrographies de fond de mer – une révolution dans la prospection pétrolière ?
Author: SAINSON Stéphane
Publisher: Lavoisier
ISBN: 2743064331
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 564
Book Description
L’électrographie de fond de mer (EFM) regroupe les méthodes électromagnétiques d’exploration du sous-sol marin et plus spécifiquement celles dédiées à la prospection des hydrocarbures en mer. Apparues commercialement en 2000, ces techniques, avec plus de 500 opérations industrielles, présentent après 10 ans de succès commerciaux un taux record de découverte de près de 90 %, et semblent aujourd’hui bouleverser la donne en matière de recherche pétrolière offshore. En proposant un indice de présence d’hydrocarbures sérieux, l’EFM couplée à la sismique réflexion est probablement la première méthode fiable de détection directe des hydrocarbures. Complétant les concepts structuralistes de la prospection indirecte en vigueur depuis les années 1920, l’EFM modifie aujourd’hui radicalement l’approche et les philosophies d’exploration, en particulier celles incluant en aval les activités de forages et de diagraphies de fond de trou. S’appuyant sur les lois de l’électromagnétisme (équations de Maxwell), Électrographies de fond de mer décrit et analyse en détail les principes physiques, les méthodes, les techniques et les technologies mis en œuvre ou en voie de l’être. De plus, une note historique montrant l’évolution des idées, des concepts et des matériels depuis les années 1930, dates des premières tentatives, complète chaque chapitre. Synthèse unique, cet ouvrage abondamment illustré constitue un véritable outil de réflexion sur l’utilisation en prospection de l’énergie électromagnétique en milieu conducteur (eau de mer) fixant ainsi les limites théoriques et pratiques de ces investigations pour les développements à venir. Destiné aux géophysiciens et géologues du pétrole, il sera également utile aux physiciens du globe, aux ingénieurs réservoir, aux diagraphistes, aux log analysts, ainsi qu’à tous les étudiants en géosciences.

Deep Crustal Structure of the Son-Narmada-Tapti Lineament, Central India
Author: G. Dhanunjaya Naidu
Publisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3642284426
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 158
Book Description
With a length of about 1200 km, the Son-Narmada-Tapti Lineament (NSL) is one of the most prominent geomorphic features in the Indian subcontinent. Anomalous conductive bodies are delineated at mid-lower crustal depths below major earthquake epicentral zones. The region has been interpreted as the collision zone of the Indian Plate with the Eurasian Plate. The NSL zone is therefore also known to be the second most important tectonic feature in the Indian geology, after the Himalayas. The present thesis describes significant new insight into the seismotectonics of this Central India tectonic zone, based on thorough magnetotelluric studies. The main objectives of the present study are: (i) to delineate subtrappean sediments across the NSL region along four different traverses, (ii) to understand the characterization of geo-electrical structure of the crust and examine the nature of geo-electrical signatures of the known faults, (iii) to integrate the results with other geophysical data such as seismicity, gravity and heat flow, in order to understand the tectonic scenario of the region. Deep electromagnetic (magnetotelluric) analyses were integrated in this study with gravity, seismic and heat flow studies and distinct, delineated deep crustal features. The resulting high conductivity is justified with the presence of fluids at mid-lower crustal depths. The migration of these fluids from mantle to mid-lower crustal depths through pre-existing brittle fracture/fault zones were obviously caused by the plume related to the Deccan volcanism. Migration of the fluids generated a higher fluid pressure along the faults and resulted in earthquakes. Based on the geo-electric sections derived along the four traverses of the Narmada-Son Lineament Zone, the present study gives important clues on the subduction/collision history in this important tectonic zone.
