00:00 I can't, as before I can't half of you. And Utah right

00:10 is rescinding it. And what it , it's the final quiz.

00:16 it's, it's a study guide or to 75% of the final is gonna

00:25 taken from that study guide, similar of problems. Uh And I've been

00:36 , how am I gonna get the ? You know, this is the

00:41 time I've had so many folks away the, the quiz. So I

00:48 I'd do the same as some of other professors do and give you the

00:53 in the morning and you have to it in by midnight. I assume

00:58 of you have the ability to print then be it because it's gonna be

01:06 difficult. I think it is difficult draw on graphs that I send you

01:12 it looking like it came off with etro sketch. Uh Does anybody have

01:22 and be able to print the quiz then scan it and email it back

01:28 me? Or, or you could ahead just physically bring it down to

01:36 university and give it to yo, mean, that's that's another option as

01:44 preferred because actually I usually have to out all the, uh, PDF

01:52 . Did I get, is that with the class in here? What

01:58 just said that you'd be given a about nine in the morning and then

02:06 had to return it by midnight or o'clock, something like that.

02:14 I said, I guess midnight because folks work during the day and makes

02:19 difficult. Ok. Um, are any questions or comments? Yes.

02:28 What about the other 25 to 50% the final? That's not on the

02:31 exam. What about it? Do want me to tell you the answers

02:37 it? Well, I'll tell I'll tell you the answers now.

02:40 got to figure out what questions they to. Ok. Yes.

02:43 No, no. Ok. Ah, the other 25% is just

02:53 choice over all the material that I've given. Mhm. Any questions

03:02 I can answer? Um, are gonna have to be using, like

03:10 any difficult math equations or I'm assuming will be some math, but I

03:15 know there are some of the equations seen are, are pretty intensive.

03:20 we gonna be doing any math using or more? So, some of

03:25 more straightforward equations it's going to I'll tell you on this quiz that

03:30 sending you. I went, there's of them that make up 50% of

03:36 quiz and there'll be just be different . What I will give you is

03:44 gonna give you the velocity density of sand and shell and it might be

03:57 filled the sand. And I'm going ask you to draw the avo

04:04 Z response. That's a graph R plus and minus for the what?

04:12 for the gas charged, you're gonna to be able to use, incorporate

04:21 saturation in there because you're gonna have be able to compute a density gas

04:29 then fill with Brian. So it's lot of uh math, but it's

04:38 calculator math. And I mentioned to make sure you show your math cause

04:49 you give me an answer and it's , I, I can't get

04:53 I can't give any credit. But you show me what you're doing and

04:57 wrong, then I can give you credit. And also anything that depends

05:04 that answer, I can give you credit to going forward. Just go

05:10 and uh compute to find out what uh see what the answer should

05:18 Any other comments or questions, you're able to scan a paper to get

05:27 into a total PDF. OK. another one. I absolutely do not

05:38 any PDF S that are single A PDF better be all put together

05:46 one. So because I print or you have them, if you have

05:57 seven or eight pages. I'm not put it together because I don't know

06:04 I assume you'd be much younger than am. If you know how,

06:08 you don't find your eight year old , they'll do it for you.

06:17 ? Any other questions about the Ok. Now we, we don't

06:27 everything. I intentionally I have like last they are parts of my lecture

06:38 you don't need me to say here's my comments and what's coming

06:43 the future. That's not really I think. But we had to

06:47 the course somehow. So there's a sections. I do skip when you

07:00 those of you, when you get study guide. Very first question is

07:06 be a little questionable on how, do you know this? It's gonna

07:14 you about 20 different answers such as a vo in 1990 or was the

07:30 to recognize what a class one a was and publish excellent results. And

07:37 be asked who's the author? And get, you'll be given a list

07:42 20 names and you, you have associate those names with the comments that

07:49 made. No, here's the bad . You haven't been assigned those

07:58 but theyre in your PDF file. so I'll try not to give too

08:07 you go ever rip, but the class reads all those papers and

08:16 the way your schedule is set you actually have, you have six

08:28 on each weekend, three hours is classes and I used to sign an

08:36 per class minimum. And so that up, we start seeing how many

08:45 you have to take. Usually they 3040 articles. You only get one

08:52 two. It'll be tough. I a question. Uh, you were

09:04 there's some of the end lecture material you don't quite get to.

09:09 are you saying that's still game to all that? That is not game

09:14 the, for instance, I'm not question you on uh section, let's

09:27 . Uh Section 62 wave equation and uh that starts getting into things such

09:51 taking a derivative of an equation and the derivative to make predictions of what

09:59 error is and then modeling that error forward. It's a, that's one

10:08 those articles, items that you wanna behind closed doors. You heard that

10:16 story, didn't you? Something you're to be do behind closed doors?

10:23 wife does not allow me to write on the board anymore. I can't

10:29 equations on the blackboard anymore. And says you're too old for that.

10:36 said that's like sex. You do behind closed doors in case you make

10:42 mistake, nobody laughs at you, , you're too damn old.

10:47 So a lot of these like it's something you wanna do behind closed

10:55 because it requires a lot of concentration rereading articles several times. Anything else

11:06 have. Ok. If not, see what we can do. Did

11:21 find that, that article, the email just, just posted on

11:30 Ok, let's see. Now how I get, how do I get

11:49 to them? Uh Let's see. me guess. Zoom. Now he

11:56 first the the Yeah, that yes go to Zoom and click the window

12:06 and chill. Zoo and he shared . Sure. It's the green button

12:15 select screen two and share. folks. Can you see my screen

12:25 you can't see my screen? Don't anything. We can see your

12:32 Ok, thank you. What does mean? Then should be a closed

13:00 for those at home and those you know, I'd even challenge you

13:12 you, I'd even challenge you to at and still you still get it

13:17 . Oh, I'm a, that's arrogant. Uh Yeah. Ok.

15:21 . Oh. Oh God, I realize that creamer stuff turns it

16:53 Yeah. Yeah, it makes Oh, if I stirred it,

17:03 it goes away. Oh, that's . That's right. You're right.

17:26 my eyes closed. Anybody watch the Friday Night Lights, West Texas football

17:42 school when I was in high I never, I, I don't

17:48 those dramatic scenes, you know, and Robbie. Well, the only

18:25 that got correct, a certain portion this exam. Oh, put your

18:42 on it. Ok? I assume all send it in already. Not

18:56 . I am missing right. Almost . Ok, let's send a

19:49 That's all 1. 22. I accepting. You have 30 seconds.

20:05 ? Let's see what we can I'm gonna need some help here

20:12 You're done. I'm I'm gonna get of this mode. I guess I

20:16 do it here. Ok? We off with class one and it goes

20:24 like that. We start off class and it could be on either side

20:31 this angle here. I mean, side of, of the zero line

20:42 then the class three and actually the two, let me do that again

20:56 be down here this year. Does notice something? It might be different

21:09 what you put up? What? ? Well, class two also supposed

21:22 be. Well, class three has probably obvious. What is it?

21:34 , no, not that I thought gonna give me something else. You

21:38 came into it fast. What did say? What did they say she

21:44 ? She said something about minus 0.1 that's what we weren't looking for.

21:49 wasn't looking for you. You see most of you drew is, what

21:56 in Rutherford and Williams paper. But you go to the article, my

22:04 four book, you find that Rutherford was not correct. And there's the

22:13 why as Tess I thought I was to mention class three, which is

22:23 the bottom here. This is it's flatter then the class 12.

22:35 we, we gotta find out why a very important reason why on

22:44 And it has to do with an by Ford Feld that we're soon gonna

22:56 with that. And I can see all anxious. I'm going to go

23:00 . Are there any questions on No. Ok. This will be

23:08 the quiz. But additional to this the quiz is I'm gonna ask you

23:16 put not only the gas charged but wet response because geoscientists are very greedy

23:29 , they never have enough information. so if you know what the seismic

23:35 is for a gas, you have ask, well, maybe the wet

23:41 is the same way. So you to have the right response. What

23:46 if there's water in and these are important? Ok. Now, with

23:57 , I can get out of Oh let me do some.

24:19 Hang on, hang on. Can hear me? Ok? You just

24:25 see it. See how far along get on this right here. She

24:59 am now this red window Alton. . Go to Zoom. Let me

25:07 which windows you'll share the screen Oh, sweet. Thank you.

25:18 like to get back. It's a but and then it was what was

25:29 windows but just tell me windows No, I got, yeah,

25:43 gotta look at the screen. the interesting thing on this one is

25:50 everybody picked number three. Not There were a couple that were very

25:58 and picked number one. Now, can see why you would like to

26:04 number three maybe because it has a amplitude of a. So why did

26:15 pick one and three? That was two that were picked? So anybody

26:22 tell me why you picked whatever you , if you pick three, that

26:28 wrong, I sent you an But why, why did you pick

26:37 ? Surely you had some logic and say what I thought. Yeah,

26:45 ahead. I, I wasn't sure one and three, but I ended

26:52 picking three because I saw that the of the A was larger than BNC

27:08 it changed from 50 Hertz to 25 . And I think I, and

27:15 assume that the, um, that amplitude of the thin bed should be

27:24 than the amplitude of the sick But I, I think I was

27:30 that in the case of the thin underneath the thick bed. Ok.

27:37 , let me, let me, , you got it pretty good.

27:40 one thing. The amplitude of the bed does not have to be lower

27:45 the amplitude of the thick bed. can. But if it's above,

27:49 it's, if it's, if the bed is underneath the thick bed,

27:53 needs to be lower, right? , not necessarily. No.

27:58 Well, the the thin bed can an amplitude of almost zero to about

28:08 times the amplitude of a thick Remember there's that toy worship that it

28:15 over and that tuning is about 40% than the flat thin thick bed.

28:22 you're you, you got it right that when you brought in frequency.

28:31 Because the response of the thin bed be the derivate of the um speak

28:40 , right. Yeah. But what I say down here? Yes,

28:45 what I was confused. But at end, I, I didn't care

28:50 it doesn't mean that I can put phase a different phase on the

28:56 So you do not, you do know what the phase of the wavelet

29:00 . I might be sending a wavelet looks like this. That's my primary

29:07 . When that reflects off of a bit, it'll be the 12 type

29:13 response, not three. That's, is a minimum phase type of a

29:19 should be another low. But if sent that as my initial wavelet,

29:25 this could be a reflection off the and the bottom of a bed.

29:39 both of these and B and C the same amplitude here as B and

29:49 has the amplitude, the same on response. Now, this event in

29:58 event can be bigger than this. within those two amplitudes are the

30:04 those two amplitudes are the same. the first thing to tell you that

30:10 they're the same amplitude, it, know, it has a chance of

30:13 a thick bed. The other thing polarity wise, this might have a

30:20 polarity first, then the plus polarity . So that's the top of the

30:26 and bottom of the bed. it could have a plus minus here

30:30 a minus plus and still be a bed. We haven't. This satisfies

30:39 criteria. The top and the bottom the same magnitude. Yep, the

30:47 and the bottom are opposite polarity over the same way, opposite polarity.

30:54 has a third, a third It doesn't matter if it's 25 Hertz

31:03 it's 50 Hertz here. They both the same relative magnitude. The amplitude

31:11 in there. Now, we come to here and this is where this

31:16 falls apart. It appears that the of the pulse depends upon the

31:30 A higher frequency is giving you a amplitude than this over here.

31:38 that, that kind of tells you that's kind of an interesting. And

31:43 is if you have a seismic data front of you and you're interested in

31:52 a particular formation, say the top the salt, you're going to find

31:58 where the top of the salt You know that salt is gonna be

32:02 real thick bed. That's one thing kind of know of. So what

32:06 you do? You go ahead and start filtering your stack data filter it

32:15 cutting out high frequencies all of a the maximum frequency is 50 hertz.

32:20 you try 40 then you try And as you do that, what

32:25 is all the thin beds will start decrease in aude, but the thick

32:34 will hold their amplitude as you decrease frequency filtering. And it kind of

32:39 you these are the thick beds. are the one you wanna tie with

32:44 synthetic first. That's why the low kind of gives you a good tie

32:49 your synthetics. So several different criteria to go in your and trying to

32:58 which was the thick bet, which good. But that, that's a

33:01 good distinction that you, you should of remember the various principles we talked

33:10 thin beds. Did you change your ? They get higher amplitude, the

33:17 frequency thick beds as you lower your , they tend to stay and the

33:26 beds tend to disappear as you get you start lowering your frequency. And

33:33 good is that you can come to synthetic and find where the thick beds

33:38 and say, I now know how adjust my synthetic. To say this

33:43 the top of this, this particular you shake your head and no,

33:50 don't believe it. You didn't read anywhere, did you? No,

34:04 the thing is we, we're trying , there's not so much the,

34:10 know, the equation but it And the question is what does this

34:15 when I'm doing seismic interpretation? What's implications of this equation? That's,

34:23 the part we want to get Questions in the comments. I told

34:31 this is gonna be hard. Oh uh questions. Yeah, I was

34:40 little OK. I ended up putting number one but the I was really

34:46 about the polarity of the theme bed in most of the examples that because

34:52 did not tell you what the phase the reflecting wavelet is. Yeah,

35:01 you did not, if you had dynamite source, dynamite source, it's

35:07 have a minimum phase pulse and that's look like a 90 degrees face

35:13 So it comes down and hits a bed which already has a 90 degree

35:18 shift. You get 290 degrees phase . Guess what? They're either gonna

35:22 to give zero or they're gonna add give 180 a zero phase pulse.

35:27 So it's, yep. Yeah, to be to be clear uh kind

35:37 like the the standard is at the of your processing to, to typically

35:43 it into zero phase. Is that what people like to look at people

35:48 to look at zero phase that is . There's another reason. And when

35:55 was going over the concept of a Seismo gram with the cartoons that Mike

36:04 Drew, there were three beds that got three reflections. And he convolved

36:12 first with the minimum phase wavelength and right beneath it, he convolved it

36:18 a zero face. What happened was you convolve with a zero phase,

36:25 the best chance you have of picking that bed reflection is. You can

36:32 the reflection points and you can see spike where it occurred with a minimum

36:40 or a mixed phase. You, can't see them. That's that's one

36:44 . The other reason is you have resolution. If you're interested in seeing

36:52 top and the bottom reflections off of bet, you want the best

36:59 you can, you want the pulse be real, really narrow. If

37:04 have a zero face, you have best chance of seeing two different peak

37:11 the trough at the top and the or vice versa, trough peak,

37:17 zero phase gives you what's called the resolution, your ability to pick the

37:25 and the bottom of a bed. , if everybody uses zero phase,

37:36 could take the data that slumber, processed it and compare it to the

37:43 data or data that process it, processed by Shearwater say two different

37:52 they both said zero phase. So should be able to just pick a

37:57 on this sta where the lines merge cross over on the other data.

38:03 should be a trough. Also any questions or comments? OK. Was

38:58 . Let's see. Can you see ? Do you see the screen?

39:28 you believe that's how I did it by myself. I'm such a big

39:40 . OK? I wanna go over as a reminder where we were when

39:46 quit last week, Cooper Basin, of Australia, which, which section

40:01 this again? For the notes? three point four, 3.33 point

40:27 Does anybody have open three point? , what's, what's the number?

40:31 does 3.3 say? It doesn't look it's which is number 43.4 A vo

40:44 . It's 3.3 slide 81. thanks. What's that slide? 69

41:09 sorry. 81 is where I left last time. Got it.

41:15 I'm with you. Thanks. Um These over here indicate there's a

41:22 of cool beds. You look at acoustic and PS there's big differences

41:27 This is not one cool bed, are many cool beds, two or

41:31 , probably each one. They just average that they so much that they

41:36 like there's only 20 or so a bit more resolution to show you lots

41:42 cool beds in there, the velocity the sand and shells about twice that

41:48 the core velocity. The density of and show about two times that gives

41:54 reflection coefficients of about 0.6. That a big number 0.6. The permian

42:08 are right where the red arrow says is a synthetic seismo gram and it

42:13 like it wants to match somewhat right . And oh, it does OK

42:19 . And maybe you just can kind pull this down or stretch it a

42:23 bit. But we don't like stretch squeeze. We like to know the

42:30 why if you are going to stretch squeeze fine, make sure you put

42:35 synthetic seismic gram match without the stretch squeeze because the interpreter needs to know

42:43 because if interpreter runs into problem further the line, they gotta know that

42:49 match was not pure. The stretch squeeze was in there. No will

42:56 help? What we've done before? did a stretch and squeeze, did

43:02 couple things. One is we made velocity and the density the same whatever

43:08 indicating a coal bed. We realized thin beds are not gonna give you

43:14 right amplitude. They, they're gonna smeared with the beds around them.

43:20 the fast cool will make the velocity a fast sand will make the velocity

43:27 the slow cool, become faster because being averaged over 4 to 6 ft

43:35 the coolest might be only 2 ft . So let's see what happens when

43:43 get that last time I showed you nice way of going ahead and making

43:56 synthetic that matched like a velocity The velocity log is in time here

44:04 this is your seismic data. And mean, they're synthetic and what the

44:09 has it has a wavel that's the filter as it, it's sort of

44:16 a boxcar. But the easy way do that is to put a 270

44:21 face shift on it. And a dominant frequency, we also see that

44:31 synthetic is a longer in time. the actually velocity sonic log is this

44:44 displaced. This is put to time the sonic lo this goes from depth

44:49 time using the seismic excuse me, is using the sonic velocity. This

45:02 using the seismic velocity, seismic velocity slower and it's therefore gonna be longer

45:12 people have these synthetics, they think taking this and stretching it down.

45:22 we're going to look at what the is. We have a, we

45:27 a couple slides. It's gonna show the front of the wave propagating is

45:35 low frequency. And so if we this propagating way which we generated in

45:42 , the catalog, we see that has a spectrum, it kind of

45:48 this, which is that over And this is the signal portion.

45:54 the portion where we get from the period to multiples. Here's the here

46:05 the propagating way if you send a down and that spike gets to this

46:15 . This is acoustic and pains. now just going to go ahead and

46:20 a constant acoustic impedance right there. make that a constant. So when

46:25 energy is done, when it gets this point, it'll continue, but

46:30 never come back. There's no So, whatever we do the wavelet

46:35 before going into there, it can back to the surface and it is

46:41 wavelet right there going down there, propagating wavelet, blow it up a

46:47 bit. When I get down to this two way time, this is

46:54 propagating wavel of one that's really interested tell you more is going all the

47:00 down to here there. Stop Fred. Don't go into the cold

47:04 . Ok? I stop right Don't go into the cold beds and

47:08 this wavelet right here and time is down here. So you'll notice that

47:16 peak, it's all black for about milliseconds. Now, let the energy

47:23 through the gold beds and get back the surface and look at what comes

47:28 to the surface. A very low pulse. What does that mean?

47:34 means this if you have a reflection here and this is some depth Z

47:42 I'm gonna allow it to be this here. Here's here is the wave

47:47 you're gonna get, you're gonna get that looks like this, that's gonna

47:55 the reflection off of this right That's gonna be this wavelength.

48:00 if you look beneath right here and get a reflection down there at this

48:15 rating here. Now, this is same seismic, here's what's gonna

48:28 You're gonna get this reflection, it occur right up here. This is

48:35 zero, but you're gonna see this right here because it's an amplitude.

48:42 can't see times zero here. You'll this amplitude. That means this pulse

48:50 been delayed by 2030 milliseconds. The test these cool beds put a

48:58 Now that's because of all the inter bouncing, the inter bed bouncing,

49:03 the wavel it get fatter. If look at it, it looks like

49:11 a phase shift sitting in here compared zero up at the top. Anybody

49:22 heard of the geophysicist, geoscientist that's an inversion. Have you ever heard

49:28 word inversion talking about, take my data and invert it. What are

49:34 gonna invert it back to? you have wiggle traces. The goal

49:43 can you get back and tell me the wave propagation velocity was above and

49:50 that wiggle give me the, the propagation velocity. That would be an

49:58 . But that assumes that you have phase like you do right here.

50:06 down here, he got a 45 spaceship. Now it's OK just until

50:13 go into those schools as soon as go into those schools, bam,

50:17 gone. Any geophysicist in the that's, that's the processing a little

50:26 . This is gonna require what's called decon. You got to de involve

50:32 data one time all the way through back and then go a little bit

50:39 down to about here and interrogate this the second decom and you only apply

50:47 . So the first trace starting down , it's very important. Otherwise,

50:53 data is gonna be screwed up. the other thing we'll say it on

51:07 right here. And this is in paper, by the way that you

51:11 is there are four synthetic seismograms that can get. The first thing you

51:18 start off with is I can make regular convolutional model of a synthetic seismic

51:26 . And that's this and that shows where the top of the coals and

51:30 base of the coal is or I for those bouncing back and forth multiples

51:38 scattering effect. It depends upon the gray. A word. Geologists often

51:45 if the stat gray varies quickly, quickly, um You have a hard

51:56 , be positive and uh all of sudden the sea level drops and now

52:07 putting the shield on uh oh sea rises. Here comes that thing and

52:12 . Another one. Oops it Here's more shell, the properties and

52:17 and shell are really drastically different. only place I know that's really,

52:23 , really, really bad is the Sea and that is just in hydrate

52:30 chill back and forth, back and . And even as early as the

52:37 seventies Midway Amico, who was out were wondering, is there a way

52:44 I can get an energy source that down very, very low frequencies so

52:52 can get my energy to pass through ? Oh, here is the primary

53:02 , but that primary has a time wavelength. And the thing that you

53:06 is at the base of the call you don't have the time during wa

53:13 . This is what it's really gonna like over here. This is what

53:18 seismic is gonna look like this So there are two additional synthetics that

53:24 get and one is all multiples and other one's all primary. You add

53:33 two together, you get the one the left which is your seismic.

53:45 . It's time for a game. ever make match a synthetic size of

53:54 Nazar chance. Are you ready? is a conventional synthetic seismo gram.

54:03 the field data at the well build data synthetic. This ties to

54:21 . This ties that, this ties , this looks like it ties

54:32 So um that little time difference, might be a little bit more here

54:39 maybe stretch it a little bit, like that. Now you are going

54:45 a lot of calls. Why are doing seismic? Why would you be

54:53 seismic beneath the coal beds? What you be looking if you had a

54:57 of cool bitch geologists? What are looking for? What's your target?

55:03 you have a whole bunch of cold ? What kind? What?

55:12 they're above the premium. They're, above the source. You got a

55:21 of shale but you don't have O only the risen in lowering sea

55:26 . You got sand there too. what would your goal be? Would

55:33 try to find shallow gas coming from cool? You're not gonna drill the

55:39 . You wanna drill a sand, in there. Now, the sand

55:46 gonna be in channels most likely. much does sand compact compared to

55:56 If you have 100 ft of coal you have 100 ft of shell,

56:03 have 100 ft of sand after 24 years. What's the thickness gonna be

56:12 the cold sand and chill? Do believe that the sediments will compact when

56:29 get other sediments on top of You believe in compaction? Now,

56:35 much are they gonna compact if you 100 ft of coal? What's

56:40 what's it gonna compact to 100 ft , shall 100 ft of sand?

56:46 much will it compact? Two 2 ft, 20 ft 80

56:53 How much will pat? What is look like? How much do you

57:03 that's gonna compare a lot? how much somebody yell numbers? So

57:12 can say you're wrong. 60%. going for 7070 I got what?

57:19 ? 79 75 80 80? How about 80%? Ok. So

57:25 you have 100 ft of coal, gonna get down to be maybe 20

57:29 thick. How about shell? How is she gonna compact? You

57:39 No shell is gonna go back to heck of a lot too. A

57:43 of pros in there when you deposit . What's your pros? 60 70%

57:50 , up that shallow bay? So gonna get done maybe 40%.

57:58 now you have 20 ft, 20 of coal, you have 60 ft

58:07 shell. How much is a sandy get back? Nice grains of

58:15 How much are they gonna compact? it another way. What's gonna compact

58:22 shale or sand chill? So the compacts, it goes to 90

58:32 Now, all of a sudden you 90 ft of sand, 90 ft

58:38 sand, 60 ft of shell, ft of coal. And what is

58:46 game? Your game is to find sands and you want to find the

58:53 sands? Oh, it's easy. here, friend. Just find the

58:59 and the bottom right there and find where this is the thickest and that's

59:06 you're gonna have Sam. What, , what do you think the normal

59:11 is the normal procedure is to look this differential compaction. And where do

59:18 normally find it? The first thing done that they've done, done that

59:22 did for many years. If you the c top of the coal

59:27 they could be dipping and then you this little bump, guess what?

59:33 drill, you drill the bump because has the best probability of having,

59:41 , a sand that has a differential compared compared to the s that's your

59:49 . It's called bump policy. Oh you, we, we caught

59:56 This is, this is how a of the targets have been drilled in

60:01 bump drill the bumps when it comes cool. But all of a sudden

60:06 the bumps are drilled now they gotta those because this is shallow,

60:15 I'm in shallow sand. How about ones that are deeper down here?

60:19 of a sudden differential compaction is not bumps up at the top, but

60:25 have a change of thickness, differential changes. So that is why we

60:32 know this time versus that time. right here says that's a good target

60:41 finding extra san. It's thicker. might not be a bump on the

60:47 might be deeper. So that is the interpretation came in. Now,

60:55 , that is the new, the technology. The course problem is it's

61:02 good because let's take a look. is at the, well, this

61:11 the field data and this is a synthetic seismo gram and it only has

61:20 in it over here. This synthetic has primaries plus multiples and this is

61:34 primary event. And as I follow yellow across these are the, this

61:39 where the primary event is sitting over . This is a primary plus multiple

61:46 as we go and follow it to right following my cursor to the

61:52 it dies out that says this event a multiple. The base of the

62:03 is actually right up here, not here. And that is what that

62:11 you a mi a misdirection, you're drill this and it turned out to

62:16 a multiple. And so that's the , where are the multiples?

62:21 how do you find them? There are techniques called inverse scattering series

62:33 this has been promoted by actually a of H geophysicist. Anybody know who

62:40 is? Not me. I wouldn't this crap. Excuse me. I

62:46 this. Who's the U of H Art Weiglein in the physics department?

62:52 the one who proposed that and he, he gave several very nice

63:00 . It's very difficult. But one the things they showed is you can

63:05 your seismic data and you can predict the multiples are. So he shows

63:12 that when you go from primary only to your primary less multiples, these

63:22 multiples coming in and you can compare to your field data. And if

63:28 see them on your field data, know, there are multiples and

63:37 he showed methods where you can now search for primaries. And what this

63:47 comes out to show is using the , we actually took this point and

63:58 tied it to this point. And this point ties over here shallower.

64:08 other words, we overestimated the thickness about 20 milliseconds thir or 30

64:16 something like that. Let's go take break for but to, to about

64:28 after two and we'll open the I think we can. Who,

64:34 the pretzels and peanuts who brought, was supposed to bring those?

64:38 I, I shouldn't say this in of those people away from here and

64:43 , never land. I'm sorry. regroup about 215. OK. Let's

64:55 one more time if I can get of that marker there. No,

64:59 can't. I get new to get of the new ones but not the

65:08 one. OK. We hope when quit this, it's the size.

65:12 you want to get rid of all markers you put on there? And

65:15 could say yes, I, I've that when you have a lot of

65:23 multiples, you can identify them. helps your interpretation. The question

65:28 can we get rid of the multiples answers? There are some methods.

65:32 first method I want to show you based on our art. We line

65:37 inverse scattering series. And I'm going show you that here are the coal

65:45 , there are 5060 coal beds sitting there. And this is a regional

65:51 called the cat nai and exists all the basin that were our interests and

65:58 the magic mouse. Now I'm coming , I'm gonna bounce off the coal

66:05 . I'm gonna bounce up to the . Now I'm gonna bounce back down

66:10 then when it bounce up to the , this is an internal multiple.

66:17 distance is gonna be an extra travel . So I take the length of

66:23 blue and I repeat it in I come over here, take the

66:28 travel time due to the multiple and and put it in green. Now

66:36 at the tip of the green, at that right there. What you

66:41 being flat is this extra bed that multiplied that multiple, the inner bent

66:49 there. That and that right there the same dip as you see right

66:55 . It's kind of neat because everything is dipping the other way. So

67:00 know, this isn't right. Something be wrong and that's a multiple.

67:08 we go ahead and apply inverse scattering and you see on the next slide

67:14 lo and behold, there's no Well, there is, it's not

67:19 because this is what they call a . We know even theoretically it cannot

67:26 rid of it. Exactly. Just , but it does get it

67:30 Maybe 20% it gets rid of maybe 40% of the amplitude.

67:38 one of the things you ought to me and we'll give five points of

67:42 to your next score. Is this , why is the multiple higher

67:51 Then the reflections at about the same , these deep reflections or low

68:01 the multiple is high frequency. why would that occur? Because where

68:15 the multiple come from? The multiple in? Because I go down and

68:25 this multiple right here its travel path up back and down again like

68:31 Is that right there? That's that time. So are you telling

68:38 Fred that this multiple never went through coal beds? Yeah, it might

68:47 that it went through the coal beds of the extra time, but it

68:52 went through the coal beds at actual . It's just the extra time.

68:57 , if it didn't go through the beds, what happened? Oh,

69:01 right. I remember you telling me bouncing back and forth on the cool

69:06 lowers the frequency. That's right. through the coal beds, you're gonna

69:12 a lower frequency. So all these they all came, you had to

69:18 through the cold bed and back up surface in order to get a

69:23 So lower frequency with the primary, multiple higher frequency. Let's show that

69:35 . Here's the full spectrum, all . Now, I'm only gonna look

69:44 0 to 20 hertz. All the frequency gone away. Where's the multiple

69:51 here? Wow, that multiple surely been suppressed over here compared to on

69:59 other side. That's right. let's go the other way. Let's

70:05 look from 20 let's look at the frequency. So here I looked at

70:11 low, here we look at, , I'll be gone. See all

70:15 nice primary events come down here. did they go? Oh, they're

70:21 here in the low frequency. what is that? That's the

70:26 it's at the high frequency. Once , you enhance the primary event.

70:35 in a low frequency. Anybody ever of a processing geophysicist? Yes,

70:44 all are in the process processing A lot of them do not like

70:51 seismic because the land seismic has surface , land seismic boxes back and

71:01 obstacles on a near surface, a , a trench in the desert,

71:11 dunes, they bounce off back and and they all have this low

71:16 So what do they do? Processors to cut out the low frequency,

71:23 out the low frequency. What are cutting out the primary events and you're

71:33 the multiples? And this is why effort by the processor has to be

71:41 not to get rid of the low . Some of them might say,

71:46 Fred look really? It's only 10 20 Hertz probably that we got rid

71:56 . Oh yeah. Ok. going from five to 10 Hertz is

72:05 octave, going from five to 20 is two octaves. When you threw

72:19 20 Hertz. Then there you threw one octave of my data. That

72:27 my wave is gonna ring more if have a very narrow bandwidth, if

72:35 wanna center all your energy right around , say at 30 Hertz, what

72:40 a 30 Hertz wave look like? it's a constant frequency. As I

72:47 before, out in L A, have a constant frequency at 60

72:54 And all you see on the trace just the same sway over and over

72:59 over again, that's electrical. You put a filter to get rid of

73:04 notch. OK? Enough said he it too many times when you go

73:13 40 to 100 Hertz over here. You could take a spectrum mirror but

73:19 very little signal and that high So let's summarize this in another

73:31 This is a multiple and the signal ra then as 5 to 20

73:44 the multiple here it goes from 5 45 Hertz. When I get rid

73:55 , if I apply iss the the signal, it's the same,

74:03 multiple, it still has the same here as it has here. The

74:09 of it over here. Is, doesn't have the amplitude here. The

74:15 is one signal we don't touch, is one but the multiple has been

74:21 down in amplitude. So the multiple is one third of it was originally

74:28 due to this process. Now, on, let's do another thing.

74:36 go ahead and look at what happens this multiple when we go ahead and

74:43 and only low allow the low Now the signal and multiple are the

74:49 there. But over here, we have low frequency. And what does

74:53 mean? You use half the See that's 5 to 45 5 to

74:59 you lost about half the spectrum. the multiples reduced by half. So

75:06 do we have? We had the slide that reduced it by a third

75:17 same spectrum and then this line reduces by a half. So taken together

75:25 have 1/6 multiple, you've reduced you've increased your signal to noise by

75:31 to 1 significant. This is what removed all these flat events that was

75:45 out of the data. Here's that again. OK. There it's

76:00 you got low frequency. What can do? One of the things we

76:07 do is find out where the spectrum . This is the spectrum, we

76:16 into this state right here. And says originally your data went up like

76:24 , it went over to about 40 and then done. But all this

76:29 right near all that is mostly So go ahead take this data that

76:42 all the way on here and only the signal. So we leave the

76:48 right here only. And we now have no multiples. So take the

76:59 and go up to the very high . So we now have a much

77:03 spectrum but it's all signal and that us this. So now look at

77:10 frequency that we we can use beautiful here. Look at the faults in

77:18 those two major reflectors. Very really helps your interpretation. These are

77:26 type of techniques that can be The idea is get rid of your

77:33 before you try to increase the I have a question, how do

77:41 know what the signal is like? see that you put a box around

77:46 on that last slide. But how do you know that's it?

77:52 because it's the higher pl good Let's see if I have each one

78:20 these right here represents what is the going down in? Coming back at

78:31 particular two way time? This is we call the propagating wavel as we

78:38 before. When I get closer and to this cool bed, the propagating

78:46 , it still stays the same. once I go through it, it

78:51 changes tremendously from right here to the , the cool beds ate all the

78:58 frequency how, when you go in cold bed, you bounce back and

79:05 , bouncing back and forth, broadens wavelet, every coal bed you m

79:11 bounces back and forth, it broadens more. This keeps on broadening.

79:17 finally, you can see how broad wave of is. So I'm drawing

79:25 line here and that line I'm drawing the signal portion of the uh

79:40 In other words, everything down here what we call long period multiples,

79:49 appear or the short period multiples, they are what reflects off of the

79:56 . So if I take, if take this right here, that right

80:08 the signal portion and I do a transform, I go from zero to

80:15 Hertz appear shallow red and yellow are big amplitude. It says that I

80:28 a lot of amplitude up in Everything hurts. I got a lot

80:36 frequency just in the propagating wav. going down here has a nice

80:45 But when I go through, go these cool beds, look at this

80:53 . All of a sudden I go something that had 50 Hertz in

81:01 No, I only have about 15 is very low amplitude. It says

81:09 you get in the cold beds, only signal you have is zero to

81:15 15 hertz. That's this wavelet right . So we know it's in a

81:23 low frequency and here's the single the is from here out, that's

81:49 that's a signal, that's this spectrum here, the spectrum is gonna be

81:56 Gaussian wavelet. And so I kind picked the peaks what's in between.

82:04 do those peaks. That's the geology that gives me something like 20 Hertz

82:12 gonna be the maximum. That's how find it. Now, here's another

82:24 from uh Algeria, this is a thick salt sequence. And yet when

82:35 make a synthetic Seismo gram, there's salt reflection. But this is all

82:44 . Are there any variation? And two logs looks like the gamma log

82:49 the density log. But if I a synthetic with multiples, wow,

82:56 how this ties now very nicely. you put the multiples in nice

83:06 this is what you wanna get rid . This is the zone going all

83:13 way across. This is the these are the same input is a

83:21 time migrated data. I show there's multiple and there it is suppressed.

83:27 is against inverse scattering. The the but was that it's not this,

83:34 can see the higher frequency that you're out too. This is sort of

83:41 dramatic one, same area. Same . We know the signal, we

83:49 this red box. The signal says got from about 10 Hertz to about

83:57 Hertz. That's what it said. we know that everything above 40 is

84:03 noise. So again, go ahead it down save the low frequency and

84:12 expand the low frequency to the high zone of interest is in the

84:20 You want to delineate the faults. let's look where the faults are but

84:28 high frequency on there and there's no . Now, look at the fault

84:32 you have there. Very nice coming faults over here. Nice, hard

84:39 see the conventional data until you get of the multiples. This by

84:45 this is the salt. You don't to see faults going through the salt

84:50 you don't. OK. That's all this section. Are there any

85:02 I'm sorry. No. OK. . Professor, I, I got

85:14 question about this technique to like expand band. I mean, if you

85:18 the, your frequency that you want span III I don't get it.

85:22 mean, what is what we are with the software to expand the signal

85:28 the high frequencies? OK. it's, it's called spectral decomposition and

85:36 , you're, you're adding the fundamentals I'm trying to think in the back

85:40 my mind what slide I have that ? Um Let me uh uh raise

85:57 question whenever I get this finished with . OK. I I'll search it

86:08 I'll show you how it's done. ? And I, I have the

86:12 , it just can't remember if it's this section or not. Um I'm

86:19 take, take it away from you a second. Oh Are there any

86:23 questions? No. OK. I'm take it away from you and I'm

86:31 looking at looking and see if it's this. Ok. Let me try

86:57 again. We go there. Bye . Work. I say Zoom.

87:11 say sheer pick it. I share . Can you see my signal?

87:20 slide now? Yes. Yes. . OK. It's we call the

87:38 call frequency extension of signal. It's around for several years. Some people

87:46 it. John Castagna doesn't like He has his own methods. Here

87:54 a seismic trace and this is Uh I'm sorry which slide there is

88:04 , this is in the same section you were in on slide. 70

88:10 OK. Thanks. Did you get it yet? Found it?

88:20 OK. Good. This is a actually but it it could be the

88:27 trace. It has primary and The way this is derived, you

88:35 a short window maybe 200 milliseconds This that energy that's in there.

88:48 take this and you do a fourier and what the fourier analysis says.

88:54 you look up at the top that's going from 2 to 72 Hertz.

88:59 says you got some energy that has high amplitude rate up here at this

89:07 . And there is the energy also little lower but it's at a higher

89:14 . And if you look at it turns out this low frequency which

89:21 we expect the signal here here Then down here. Now meanwhile,

89:29 I draw where the blue is, the multiples. So this trace over

89:39 , we can separate the primary energy the multiples by coming in here like

89:50 and filtering out this data here leaving the long period multiples. So I

90:01 taken this seismic data launch race and broke it into 80 traces and each

90:11 is a different frequency. And then upon what the design of this curve

90:20 , I went ahead and got rid the multiples, the blue stamps.

90:25 now I just have this day of year, but here's my multiple really

90:32 frequency and I want higher frequency. let's see if we can go ahead

90:40 remove that. This is, remember said get rid of the multiple with

90:47 multiples up here. Now we can you energy back here, give you

90:53 back here based on what we So this energy right in here in

91:04 time domain, it looks like So that spectrum is this right

91:11 What I have left is that spectrum this is this is called the,

91:18 harmonic. Now, I want the harmonic and what that is it.

91:24 remember I know this, I know , that's this portion. I know

91:32 I then take this portion right here I go down to double the frequency

91:40 I put that same amplitude, I this frequency up to here. And

91:46 take that amplitude and put it I do that for the third

91:54 take that triple that value and put amplitude that he had there at the

92:01 right here, triple this frequency to and put the amplitude up. Now

92:07 time I do this, I know the time response is because I got

92:13 frequent, it's very important that this zero phase data. No, I'm

92:21 to do something with it. I these three right here, I sum

92:26 together and I get this in the domain. It's just the summation of

92:34 these three spectrum add them together. get this what was only the low

92:41 now contains all the bunch of the . So I'm able to add some

92:48 energy right there. And so I've , I've, what I've done is

92:54 this got the wave that, that to and then went ahead created the

93:04 , adding them together, sum them then came back over the frequency domain

93:10 have extended the frequency. Well, I get the second harmonic, I'm

93:21 doing it for everything above it. do the whole, the whole,

93:29 whole time length is gonna have its harmonic computer. Not just that one

93:35 , I've taken the one window that can see what I did for one

93:39 . I can do it above that above that above that, but you

93:42 do it all in one slide, slice and that's what I've done right

93:50 . I've taken, gotten rid of noise component and we, you analyze

94:01 by the propagating waver catalogs. I'm give you a new area. I

94:11 you to take this home, put on your computer, dial up the

94:16 to 3D interpretation package. And I you to tell me what's the main

94:22 ? What are you looking for in series? Oh, my God,

94:25 . Yeah, that's right. at 530 before you get your first

94:32 , bree beer, pick this point here and tell the computer. I'd

94:39 you to follow that event all around 3D survey automatically pick it and then

94:47 a map. So I know what structure in the area. Well,

94:51 computer comes over here and says, where do I go? Do I

94:56 up where I go across? What the computer do? What should it

95:04 up here? All of a sudden at this, there's a lot of

95:08 marks. So we do the same . What you're looking at is a

95:16 processor. Heard client said we were and we vibrated all the way to

95:24 Hertz. I want my final I want my final section to have

95:28 Hertz in it too. No matter you can show them that all those

95:35 reduced it. You don't have anything than 20 Hertz, everything is below

95:40 . And so taking this, getting of all the high frequency noise leaving

95:48 and then once you got the expand it back up to where your

95:54 red says your spectrum was in doing . That's what you get.

96:01 look at the continuity that you get the signal going across there, that

96:08 is gone. It's a phase And the high frequency is what

96:16 The processor was told you gotta have frequency. Well, the processor gave

96:22 high frequency in this section. You all the same frequency you have in

96:27 , but it's in random noise. because of random noise, you don't

96:32 begin to see the continuity, same the spectrum, just different face.

96:44 I think I showed you this this is the same area. But

96:51 , this is where the signal Would you rather interpret that very difficult

96:59 make a synthetic that matches? So would your first thing be a lot

97:04 times you can kind of look at spectrum and say, you know,

97:11 kind of believe this, I think was put on, I think it's

97:16 multiples. And so right in here filter it low pass filter it night

97:25 day difference, this seismic section right . Now look at the nice tie

97:40 getting with the synthetic, here's the data, here's the low frequency and

97:52 the high frequency you add these two together, you're gonna get the one

97:57 the left, but just looking at . So, you know, that's

98:05 pretty God darn structure to ignore. pretty hard to say that that's fake

98:14 I, I believe that was all over there. A lot of noise

98:18 super opposed. It still has some in it, but you got the

98:23 structure now you'd miss it totally. other comments. And the, the

98:33 I point these out is you can ahead and do an amplitude interpretation,

98:38 you gotta know what amplitude you get rid of that noise. This

98:48 taking the same original data giving up spectrum right here. Look on the

98:56 side. It's about the same, at the difference. This was the

99:05 noise that was replaced. No kinda . OK? Any other comments or

99:27 ? OK. I'm going to go another section. How are we doing

100:54 ? Do you have a screen, screen? OK. Thank you,

100:58 . Thank you, sir. Mm are the various sections but what I'm

101:16 to repeat is the quick overview was first day. This is the the

101:23 that I showed you the first day to bring us up. I told

101:26 at the very beginning we're gonna go the whole course and two hours or

101:31 hour. So I went over the course in an hour and then I

101:36 we'll see it again later on We're seeing it. We're seeing these

101:41 a little later on, but we're expand a little bit on them.

101:47 I said before, you can drill these locations and they're all hydrocarbons,

101:55 all guests. The only reflections you're at are those that have reflect

102:03 So let's look at the gamma gamma curve that you put in.

102:09 well describes the pathology in a petro analysis. How do we describe

102:17 Mathematically we had a brine saturated a gas saturated sand. One of

102:27 things that we said, I'll always this, Fred. When you go

102:32 a brine saturated to a gas saturated wave decreases, density decreases, poisons

102:43 they all three not the sheer weight the poison. We then said ah

102:53 need to talk about amplitude. So told you here's the basic equation that

102:59 have for the normal incidents. What the normal incidence that refers to the

103:07 of the reflective way to the amplitude the incident? And what is

103:13 It's the particle velocity? It's a displacement. It's a particle acceleration or

103:22 could be stress, particle stress. in there. Particle velocity. Oh

103:31 that like limestone? 16,000 ft per ? No, no, no,

103:35 , no. That's the wave propagation . A Fred. You got too

103:41 . You got wave propagation. You particle velocity. Take one. Oh

103:46 can't. So what's the difference? the difference between particle velocity? And

103:52 propagating. What differentiates them? Very . Very who knows the answer.

104:04 velocity, wave propagation? Oh Let's ready. We got the bus.

104:13 go take a field trip, take field trip and do a little

104:16 We're rolling down and is a, crop of the Austin shark limestone.

104:22 got c called limestone. We're gonna ahead and measure the velocity, the

104:29 velocity. Yes, we come back and we'll go back 20 million years

104:35 now. OK. We have the road c major particle velocity.

104:42 no, no. It's gonna be ft per second. That's the way

104:47 , it then depend upon time. the particle velocity does depend upon time

104:55 as the eighth earth shakes, you see that that particle, that one

105:00 there. It's moving back and And how much is it moving back

105:03 forth with respect to that original Well, that's displace it. Take

105:08 to the river to displace it. velocity. So the particle velocity,

105:14 depends upon time. Wave velocity But you said particle that means take

105:20 little selected point if the particle velocity greater than 16,000 ft per second,

105:29 for someplace to shelter. Because what is you're getting, you're beginning a

105:36 because all the material behind the first gonna come ahead of it. Particle

105:41 becomes faster. This whole thing moving and forth is faster than it's supposedly

105:46 projected as a tsunami. We measured normal incidence reflection coefficient. We

105:59 look at that, that's Brian and get how about that? My little

106:04 here, you could just look at normal incidence and tell the difference between

106:09 saturated and guess saturated. That's Maybe not be able to do that

106:14 the time or are interesting because somebody gonna say maybe a vo should be

106:24 determines the fluid. So we what is Aviel? Well, we

106:30 a guy by the name of Cod , look at that amplitude a little

106:37 differently. This is a stack section , take this trace right here,

106:45 that trace and that's stacked. What the amplitudes of each trace going into

106:54 ? That looks like it's a 10 . So that's called tenfold and stack

107:00 horizontally and you get this trace. said, go ahead and look down

107:05 do that now at your normally, The near trace is small x bigger

107:12 the far or the small near traces smaller than the far. We found

107:20 all three of these skin exists, was mostly indicative most of the time

107:28 one right here. Case two. was all of Cofield 1955. The

107:38 thing he said, I don't think gonna use it in the near

107:44 He wrote that in the article and was right, it took over 20

107:48 before we started to use it but important thing for us is here's a

107:55 ray log, this is done inside borehole. You put that against the

108:04 and you can measure the amount of ray that comes out of this.

108:10 , we also measured the P wave shear wave and we found out there's

108:15 way to combine the P wave and wave. I think it was called

108:19 poisons ratio law. Oh my Look how similar it is to the

108:25 log. That poisons ratio curve is mythology. Why? Because that's what

108:32 gamma log the gamma log says here the share part and here's everything else

108:38 here. So we need an Remember the geophysicists, they're really

108:52 You know that geophysicists say if you write an equation for it, it

108:57 exist. Well, here we we need an equation. The first

109:02 we do is we write out what know, we know the normal

109:07 its reflection coefficient, we know that this is as an, as

109:13 as a variable that depends upon the angle theta and I don't have any

109:21 . OK? Put cosine square the , OK, we'll do that.

109:27 we need another portion and this one the difference in poisons ratio sine squared

109:35 and this is called the poisons As we're gonna find out your pore

109:44 analysis comes from this, your lithology from this. So how do we

109:53 other equations for that or how do use this? We broke this down

109:58 said, everybody can remember what the incidence equation is this, we call

110:03 poisons reflectivity. So you can't remember reflectivity. OK? I will help

110:10 . This is basically 2.25 times the in poison's ratio, the change in

110:17 ratio, it's always the lower minus upper the change in P wave

110:23 the lower minus the upper we went and asked you to do the A

110:35 based on this equation and you And a couple of things you noticed

110:41 curve is flat near the incident Uh This is an alert from the

110:51 of Houston campus. Fred's gonna put on the quiz. OK? That's

110:56 be on the quiz because you're gonna to draw this and when you draw

111:00 , you gotta make it smooth flat equals zero. Now, why would

111:05 do that? Because on seismic a lot of times the traces near

111:13 offset aren't any good. Well, says, OK, go out to

111:20 out to 10 degrees and you don't that. So you still got most

111:27 the information, you got all the so you can go out to 10

111:31 . You don't have to force yourself take zero degrees. That's gonna be

111:35 good A vo is still very What other thing did we learn from

111:42 ? You're gonna need this too. is in one of the questions,

111:45 worth 30 points. You need to that the hydro garb the hydrocarbon charged

111:53 the same shape as the wed, the same close enough to us that

112:01 using the computer right now. Just this by hand. And it's more

112:10 negative is a amplitude. Amplitude is and minus. Don't get confused with

112:17 word magnitude. Magnitude is just, the absolute difference? We look at

112:29 up here. Let me see. see what this looks like here.

112:34 have a plus 0.05. That's this right there. The plus value in

112:41 curve goes down to the right and is the zero line oh at the

112:48 offset. It. Yep, it all amplitude. So this decreases empathy

112:54 offset and when we look at the , it says, well, it

113:02 has the same curve, right? look, I'm starting off negative and

113:08 curve is getting more negative. you start off negative, you get

113:14 negative, you increase, you're getting big amplitude here compared to the zero

113:21 . Oh Well, this is 0.05 this is minus 0.04. This and

113:32 or about the same 92. Fuck second term. That second term almost

113:41 is decreasing amplitude with offset. It's more negative. So I make this

113:48 negative. Yeah, it just gets in magnitude. It hasn't reached zero

113:53 . This starts negative, you make more negative, it becomes something easy

113:59 see what makes this visually attractive is a lot of time your amplitude at

114:10 offset has a very small value. this change in slope this and this

114:18 in slope, they're about the but this starts off as a positive

114:27 . This starts off as a And with your change in slope,

114:32 right there is a lot easier to against this and that right there against

114:44 . We said, let's look at field data. This is on Billy

114:48 Strander presentation. He said on the fill, you start off a small

114:55 , you get big on the far on the gas field. Here,

115:00 is a small offset with offset amplitude about the same. So our first

115:15 , this is what we saw this and I guarantee you, you need

115:27 know that equation that's gonna be on quiz several different times just to,

115:34 ask you what's your interpretation? The version of the equation. This version

115:45 here, the simplified version at the . That's the one just a simplified

115:51 . OK. Now you're also gonna , hey, reflection coefficient is a

116:04 of theta. You're gonna see something goes like this. The normal incidents

116:13 B sin square theta. The previous was normal incidents, cosine squared data

116:32 pr Science square. These are very related pr is simply related to

116:47 also different, just a different And we'll, we'll cover that.

116:55 need to know that. Let's take , ah, oh, go back

117:04 20 minutes after three and finish We ordered pizza. Did you get

117:14 ordered? I just don't know about people over in Germany. Now,

117:35 all important media that we have to at. The one we do.

117:40 lot of exploration is water over Ok. Let's look, take a

117:47 at that. That's a fluid. waves don't propagate in water and they

117:57 propagate in jelly Jello either. But reflection coefficient at any incident angle can

118:06 expressed very simply as this right Now we do run into a little

118:12 of problems and that is once we past this critical angle, we get

118:22 of the zone where the face is longer zero, it starts to

118:32 What does that mean? That means reflection coefficient is gonna become imaginary.

118:41 gonna have a real part and then part and the relationship of the real

118:51 to the imaginary is how we get . OK. Now everybody used to

118:57 the trigonometry. They, they, , they, they got in high

119:01 and everybody remembers it right? Everybody that the inverse tangent and you,

119:08 got that function, you got that . By the way, on your

119:15 , the inverse tangent of the imaginary over the reel is equal to the

119:21 angle. So when we talk about , you have to come in

119:27 you compute this. But when you it, it can reach an imaginary

119:33 . Once it gets past say 32 here, now we can look at

119:41 you'd get out of it. And the PP reflection coming by this red

119:46 going up over all the way That's the P reflection based on this

119:57 , this plot right here. And know, it's about 32 degrees,

120:03 stops and maintains the amplitude of one the way across there. Interesting.

120:12 starting about 32 degrees right there, get a great big amplitude, it

120:19 up real fast. And yet when look at this, you say,

120:28 the high amplitude is way out not in here. And we will

120:35 what happened is there's another wave you barely see in here. And that

120:41 the head wave but it is coming and it gets bigger, bigger and

120:47 coming in here and you'll hear this and over. Not only do you

120:54 on this reflected wave, do you a P going down the P coming

120:59 ? But after a certain offset, get the refraction and that refraction superimposes

121:06 the conventional reflection, which is what drawing out. Said another way is

121:14 we look at it, the big is not necessarily gonna be at the

121:20 angle, but beyond. Now, does say something, it says after

121:27 incident wave, if this angle here bigger than 34 degrees right there

121:42 then there's no energy that goes into subsurface, everything greater than that is

121:52 reflect. Now, I wanna look this curve right here and I'm going

122:05 correct it, move it all the up to here. So that little

122:11 has been moved up to here and right here, I move it up

122:16 there. I, I do that what's called a static correction so that

122:21 should have the same wavelength all the across. Now. It's pretty close

122:26 the same wavelength right there. These all the same wavel thats but I

122:33 that wavelet it's distorted, it's not . This is a symmetrical zero phase

122:42 but not here. It looks like has a derivative or 90 degrees

122:48 Oh It says it's 63. So that particular angle we were at your

122:57 was 6063 degree. Well, no sitting in here almost close to pie

123:04 two. Yeah, the angle is degrees. So your reflection changed shape

123:16 you get past what's called the critical . Well, we don't have many

123:21 over fluid boundaries. We do have over solid though. Let's take a

123:26 at it. Ah Fred. Come . Oh All right. Let's take

123:31 . Here comes the P wave down the boundary. This is a ray

123:35 . The energy traveled down that ray , it hits the boundary and gazing

123:41 the old pool shooting pool angle, equals the angle of reflection. But

123:47 another wave that goes off. It's reflected she wa now P wave as

123:55 travels here, it grabs a hold a particle and moves it back and

123:58 in this directs the sheer wave, goes sideways. So when it continues

124:05 propagate, it grabs this particle and it sideways like that. Yeah,

124:12 wanna see a good P wave I mean, a sheer wave,

124:17 some salt on the table, make shrill on the table with salt.

124:23 take a piece of sandpaper and glue to the front side of the

124:30 then take not your fingernail. you could use a scrape down on

124:35 sandpaper. So you're creating an up down motion and watch the salt travel

124:42 , but it goes up and down the wave travels down there, not

124:46 and forth. So there's a sheer . It's actually more of a

124:51 but we'll call it a sheer. I transmitted a sheer wave P wave

124:58 wave shear wave. Wow, we we, we know we have a

125:04 in the group and a physicist as . We got to somehow tell what

125:09 amplitude is. What do you want know? Well, all these

125:17 one reflected cheer, two reflected P P transmitted. I wanna know what

125:25 , if I give an amplitude of over here, what does it

125:29 Well as you know, we use is something we're gonna continuity,

125:36 continuity of stress. When we get with that for P wave and she

125:43 , we would have four equations. so these are the unknowns do,

125:49 do these. This is all this is all known. So we

125:56 real numbers or imaginary numbers throughout this yellow box and throughout this whole white

126:05 that when you try to solve these using algebra, this is not a

126:24 problem. You're gonna want a computer this, but it becomes a really

126:30 little problem. So somebody did it us. A guy by the name

126:41 and Rev Rendra and they published Zr's . This is Carl Zep. Now

126:49 going to give us the exact, see, everybody's forearm, show me

126:56 forearm. You have that equation written reflection coefficient, the function of

127:03 Let me hear it again. It's of like a football game. You

127:07 , you gotta get the team in locker room, go, team,

127:09 team. Yeah. OK. Reflection is equal to normal incident cosine squared

127:17 plus coones reflectivity sine squared data. an approximation. You can do it

127:23 your head. But Carl Zeren 1990 , no, no, no.

127:29 me give you the exact solution. he said if you wanna find a

127:36 reflection going down right in here as function of the P wave velocity,

127:42 wave velocity and density of the upper lower medium. Here's the equation you

127:46 to have. Oh, that's not bad for it. I mean,

127:50 some date, isn't it? you got ad minus one there minus

127:56 means divide by. OK. so before you do all those

128:02 you gotta compute D oops. Now gotta do all these multiplications for D

128:08 By the way before you d before do DC, these status and

128:14 you gotta do that first. So , you've done two separate things before

128:21 can actually get this number right This is very easy to put in

128:27 . By the way there, it's not simple. It might take

128:32 a day just to figure out remember to use complex numbers, but it's

128:38 to program. And if you want program the P going down over the

128:49 , that was the previous slide And if you wanna complete the P

128:55 down and the sheer going up, subscript one too, that's this one

129:02 here. There's what you need to . And as it turns out there

129:08 16 different ways you can have a wave going down or shear wave going

129:16 or P wave coming up and or you could have the transmitted

129:23 So these are all the various scenarios you can have the red we

129:33 that's the PP, let's do Simple examples. Here is the model

129:46 this is the ju just so, know, we don't have some of

129:51 slides too. So I think there's issue with the hidden slides in a

129:56 of these sections. OK. What that was was I put those

130:04 uh h when I made the PDF again, I came through and uh

130:16 , oh, I'll show those anyhow I have time. Um This is

130:24 , 3.4. OK. We will those to you. I hope there

130:35 been too many. Has there been lot? Uh It's not a ton

130:41 there's, they've definitely been scattered throughout different sections. We're surviving. All

130:50 . Do you have this one? , this one, this one that's

131:03 there. It is there or No, that one. Mhm.

131:13 . No, I think the previous . What's that? The, the

131:19 one? I think it was Yes. Yes, we have

131:29 Let me, let me tell you you missed. OK. You'll

131:42 you'll get that. I, I . Here's a model and here is

131:53 amplitude, I should say magnitude and angle and look how it goes

132:00 down, back, down, All right. This is all very

132:06 . But then again to over here look at what the model is.

132:12 10,000 ft per second, over 25,000 per second. That's like cream cheese

132:20 top of stainless steel. It gives a sh this would be your shot

132:29 out and function of offset shot You move that up, take the

132:40 that's here, you move it That'll be over here. So flattening

132:47 , it's called Norma Mova. But move this up with a static shift

132:52 I don't stretch it and I get shown right in here. I guarantee

132:59 never see this. I mean, order even to do this in the

133:05 model, it takes a lot of to get rid of all the other

133:12 that's gonna be there. There's stuff here that only theoretically is is what

133:18 gonna drive. And that's why I to this. This is more

133:24 It has a P wave of over 13,000. The amplitude decreases with

133:31 . Here's the critical angle and it at the critical angle, you get

133:36 high amplitude sitting out there, I at the model and here is the

133:42 angle right here and there's absolutely no amplitude there. Your big amplitudes out

133:50 . Where's the big amplitude that Carl told us is gonna be there?

133:57 If you look closely there is the weight, the refraction coming in coming

134:04 and it starts right there at the at the critical angle. And as

134:11 turns out, it has a different than the flat event right here.

134:17 therefore the amplitude is not maximum the maximum is back there. So

134:23 idea that critical angle as the maximum , that's correct. If he didn't

134:29 the head wave coming in which it's always gonna be there. You

134:34 separate it physically, physically, it's . I can separate it because

134:39 I'm plotting these one ray at a PP reflection. I could then do

134:45 P headway. So did you have plot? He had this plot?

134:59 . This is Zebras solution and that by uh Excel. And then this

135:17 using a code called the reflectivity That means everything is computed headways surface

135:28 everything. So that head wave and reflection there come about to say at

135:35 critical angle, your total elastic This red says your maximum amplitude is

135:44 there almost twice, not twice but further out than at the critical

135:52 What do I get out of Fred? What you get out of

135:56 is this right here? And this where people that do a vo oh

136:05 me the far offset. I'm gonna you. Yes, again, this

136:13 from this green to this green cannot used for a vo. In other

136:20 , this amplitude going up cannot be to predict because it has the head

136:29 . Well, Fred, you went critical A yeah, your head wave

136:35 does come in before because it's a band that you're measuring. So you

136:44 use it until this distance out here the head wave refraction and the reflection

136:59 time or you come back in here the amplitude starts going up. So

137:09 no way to process out the head . E I I wish I could

137:18 yes. But you see the head is coming in right over top of

137:28 reflected wave. I I, you then the, the head wave,

137:41 you look at the seismic reflection, head wave comes in here, it's

137:49 . This is the reflected wave time down here offset going across there.

137:55 is the reflected wave, this hyperbolic it's ta the refraction is tangent to

138:03 reflective. And when you say you say I suck, I can't

138:07 that. There's no time there's no offset separation. So you have to

138:16 predict it, which I can't No, I don't, I don't

138:25 what, what it leads to is talk about being able to separate velocity

138:34 from density by looking at the very offset. And the answer is you

138:41 , that portion is, don't go . The headway screwing you up.

138:54 we? We didn't pass any did we? We had two

138:59 haven't we? Yeah. Yeah. . OK. Good. All

139:07 I think it's Newton's time. I picked on him yet today. Are

139:11 ready? You're a mathematician. What you shaking your head? You are

139:19 , I just told you a you gotta see what these people had

139:23 be. OK? Here it Newton, everything, everything in here

139:34 gonna be a number, everything right . It's gonna be a number.

139:42 ? No, your job as a is to be able to predict what

139:52 reflection would look like if it's bri versus if it's gas. That's

140:00 So that means the density and P velocity going from Brian, the gas

140:10 are gonna be reduced by about And in doing that, going from

140:20 to guess how much will RP vary reflected P wave? The question

140:30 is there any insight gathered from the equation which I display here? In

140:38 to answer this, please don't say and make me feel bad. I

140:45 see any. It's, it's, an ugly question for it. So

140:50 we have to do is ask our Reinhardt BFD and this goes back to

141:05 sixties or so, German professor. here's this equation, I simplified it

141:13 bit but uh modified it slightly. said, if you want to look

141:22 a PP reflection, you can go and use Carl Z's equations. He

141:31 , but let me give you a method. Now, in 1960 we

141:37 didn't FP CS, we didn't have , main computers. So he's doing

141:43 by hand. He basically says, that I'm making a simpler solution.

141:49 is too bad, man. I'm gonna do many. And so

141:52 he comes up with this approximation, interesting thing is we look at this

141:59 approximation. That term I saw that water over jello. You know,

142:07 the fluid fluid part. And what this? That's the rigidity part?

142:14 I'll be darn what does the word mean to you? Oh, I

142:20 there was a, there was a coefficient friend. The sheer wave of

142:28 , I think it was called sheer . Oh Is that why I'm seeing

142:34 these beta in there? Yeah, got a little Alpha Don here.

142:40 that's, that's immaterial there. this term right here. Al

142:50 Look at that. That is with . It says this term right here

142:59 what you're gonna use with offset depending contribution. OK? We can do

143:07 interesting. Do you have these OK. No. Did everybody bring

143:24 sand and chill ba trends with What are you talking about,

143:28 Well, you got in, you're into a new area. You tell

143:33 what the rock properties are as a , you know, rock property says

143:39 wave velocity and density. If I to do sheer a velocity, I'll

143:45 it. I'll use the Greenberg Gusto equations that you showed a little bit

143:50 . OK. So you go ahead you're gonna pick three different depths in

143:57 three different depths. We review cast and three A vo you don't know

144:04 they are, but they are So here are the properties of the

144:11 and density. Ok. Now, break this up into team, we're

144:19 compute the A vo response as a exercised using this equation. Who knows

144:33 one? Anybody else who in out of the world? Oh,

144:39 just out of Houston. Who knows Taylor? Ok. Taylor, you're

144:47 team captain from away from home. of this SD Friday night lights or

144:58 they call that movie. Ok. the team captain. He, he

145:08 out 70. You're always answering the , right? Don't pick on

145:17 Fred. You're the team captain. ? I'll be the team captain for

145:25 three. Who wants to be on team anybody? No, you can't

145:31 on my team. Stephanie, you're , you're on team one.

145:35 that's ok. Don't worry, I this underhand. You ready? Here

145:40 goes. So what I want you do? Hey, there, are

145:50 ready? See this equation, I want you to compute the fluid

146:08 . I want you to compute that this class two is 9000 ft

146:26 They are the rock properties that you're have. And now here's your equation

146:36 gonna use. So when you go , they want, oh, by

146:41 way, you could do this 50 from one degree to 51 degrees.

146:49 you have just p way density lower medium. OK. Stephanie, you

146:57 your team, you got the whole , you and your team are gonna

147:02 the rigidity factor for 51 different 0 to 50 Tessa is gonna help

147:11 . She knows Python, are you only one? Nobody else is raising

147:19 hand but they know Excel and that work too. Ok? So let's

147:26 ready. No, Taylor, you figure out how to do this.

147:32 the commander there, Stephanie, I turn around and start looking at

147:38 group see if they're gonna help OK. Anybody done yet?

147:58 Let's have the group now time to your data in Taylor. You're in

148:03 of the fluid part, right? . So for that 9000 ft depth

148:10 just sent me an email and he me these values right here. That's

148:16 fluid term for Bord Fell. Stephanie, she just handed it to

148:23 . The rigidity term had hardly had time to get this done.

148:29 Bor Feld says my total response is sum of the blue in a

148:37 So add these together. I get brown. Do you have a copy

148:41 this? You should have a copy them. You have the brown curve

148:45 in the middle now just behind or that is a black line. That's

148:52 exact Z. Hey, that's not . I mean word fell's approximation.

148:58 exact Z are almost overlays not bad all. But here we go

149:07 Geoscientists what you're greedy then why are greedy? Because you say what is

149:14 enough. Let's do the gas So get ready ta them. I'm

149:20 need your term for the gas, fluid term. So, oh here

149:24 his email. Let me get So here's the first one Taylor gave

149:29 for the web. Oh Look at the fluid term went down to this

149:34 curve over here again. Stephanie, gonna give me the rigidity to?

149:42 . So give me the rigidity. , hey, hey, just a

149:48 . Stephanie, that's the same thing you gave me before. Come

149:53 Now we asked, you're, you're me that the rigidity term for the

150:03 is the same as the rigidity term the what? Uh let's go back

150:12 . Yeah, Fred, don't you sheer wave velocity isn't affected by what's

150:19 the portal much at all? So of a sudden these are about the

150:26 for gas or for what that Discrimination lies in this poor fluid

150:39 Oh my gosh. And what is ? That's the normal incidence term.

150:45 where the poor fluid discrimination is not avi re interesting. So, rigidity

150:59 is identical for wet and gas The fluid response identifies the poor fluid

151:07 bingo. We can go up now collect our price. Now we'll do

151:13 same thing for the board F class . Here is the two terms and

151:23 , on the wet. Look how bra, that's the total response and

151:30 fluid just about overlap. I come here to the gas again, the

151:42 and Bord Feld's total expression overlap. rigidity term is about the same sitting

151:50 here. No, this has It means something does lapse. It

152:00 that, oh, and this is a bright spot. They called class

152:08 . We're gonna find out it's a amplitude. Mm. It says those

152:15 amplitude you see, look at that compare that to this over there.

152:19 mean, that's 20 times bigger. gonna be so big. It's gonna

152:23 a hole on your monitor screen. will come through so much.

152:35 Isn't that interesting? It says these spots that you're looking at, they

152:42 care what the rigidity term is. basically kind of flat. Wow,

152:52 means those bright spots or like fluid fluid type of the terms rigidity is

153:00 needed. Interesting. OK. Let's a look at those that are very

153:11 . Now, the deep ones at good separation between the velocities 24,000.

153:26 remember linear approximations probably has some assumptions with it. And what are those

153:37 ? There's not a big change in wave, there's not a big change

153:40 density, simple stuff. What's not big, well, going from 10

153:48 14,000, that's a 40% change. big. What does that mean in

153:55 linear approximation? Well, has a of an important thing for us.

154:01 it says if you look at 14,000 depth, the Bord Feld's response is

154:11 brand. Now, look at the right here compared to the exact

154:24 And let's put the gas in it see what that has there. There's

154:28 board fill and there is a ZR Fred. They're not off by much

154:37 maybe 0.03. That's not my is . You don't have the slide.

154:50 the one this year. 0000 I know. OK. Once

155:03 muscle. Um Don't have animation on slides. God, you gotta,

155:18 gotta put every animation. OK? attention to my little thought. That's

155:27 one I have to do. It says that Fred, don't worry

155:35 that. It's only 0.02. There's , I mean, look at,

155:45 much different than this. Much different that. What more do you

155:51 Well, but more I want is want you to look down here at

155:58 and I want you to go back what you read on Rutherford and

156:02 And what did they say? We're Oklahoma, we're drilling for the hard

156:09 in the hard shore. What we for is when the amplitude in the

156:14 goes to zero. Yeah. So amplitude I'm following this event. Seismic

156:21 event. All of a sudden it and you tell me to drill.

156:27 , no boss is gonna drill where amplitude disappears. The plude is supposed

156:32 increase when you get hydrocarbons, not what we're seeing here. It

156:39 but more importantly, what happened? came da and goes through the zero

156:50 . It reverses polarity on the CD . Gather that multitrace set of data

157:00 represents one trace. When you stack together, you have an area or

157:09 amplitude is going to go through zero here. The real data says you

157:16 go through zero, your amplitude Well, that is a great and

157:21 show you real data in a little on where that's significant. It tells

157:27 where to drill. So you gotta the exact solution. The conclusions here's

157:41 that we can reach. First conclusion it's time for a break. Let's

157:46 about a five minute break till we to about 10 after four. All

158:05 . Conclusions from Reinhardt Borel. They hate to keep saying this but the

158:17 are on the quiz. Uh and Ron Quist, the class three which

158:27 are going to call bright spots. rigidity term is small in fluid fluid

158:34 dominates for those of you. that are in processing. It says

158:44 implication, Avio is approximately flat for and hydrocarbon saturates. What does that

158:58 when you're processing seismic data? There's a problem. How do you balance

159:04 traces? How do you balance the offset compared to the near offset?

159:11 , what this says is dominant at that you can see. They should

159:18 the same amplitude magnitude going from near far on a class three bright

159:25 So if you know you're in class environment, you're gonna do this.

159:30 a little bit tell a little bit , we tell you what is a

159:35 three environment based on your velocity profile on what you can see in seismic

159:45 if you get a large increase or in the A vo and you

159:52 you're in a class three environment. class three? Basically, it means

159:59 velocity is less than seven or 8000 per second. When you're 7 8000

160:05 per second interval, velocity expect to in class three. So any large

160:11 or decrease and the A vo not brighten the increase expect that that's not

160:19 shall, that's gonna be salt, gonna be limestone, it's gonna be

160:23 else. The stack provides the most estimate of poor floor. That's

160:37 Well, of course, if you this, if you're expecting the same

160:42 on every trace stack, it that your signal to noise ratio.

160:48 who ever say something like that? That was a as it turned out

160:53 is a fly by night company Shell that actually wrote this paper. So

160:59 wants to believe shell, very good and it's very basic and a lot

161:05 good God. It's actually called stacked ac ked stack. And uh I

161:13 I gave you a copy of them linear approximation equation namely tips.

161:24 log Maler tips in Bend Mahler works . We're near in class 20 By

161:32 way, look at the bottom this is an example, you have

161:38 wet small amplitude gas bait. So your stack section, you're gonna see

161:44 that burns right through the monitor, amplitude flat amplitude. Now, in

161:50 class two, often called phase this was the 9000 ft depth.

161:59 we looked at the wet response, amplitude died with offset. When we

162:04 at the gas, it increased with . Just looking at these two

162:11 Would you be able to say one's magnitude and the other, you

162:15 even looking at it, would you , oh, that's negative and this

162:18 positive or vice versa, this is and that's positive. Would you see

162:25 ? I don't know, but I would notice this. I sure would

162:31 starting with zero offset to the far here and that amplitude decreases and here

162:38 amplitude increases. I would not miss . So that definitely is a very

162:45 idea. This is what Bill Ostrander talking about, having been able to

162:55 the amplitude increase like that Avio rigidity . One here it is the rigidity

163:13 has the same weight as the fluid . The fluid fluid term must be

163:22 from rigidity to say it. Another you gotta be able to get what

163:27 normal incidence is. You gotta be to get how the amplitude slopes with

163:32 two important features. You gotta get AVIA was invented for class two.

163:39 prospect might not even be recognized on stack section. So you gotta have

163:44 type of Avio modeling or it's Avio in class one rigidity term dominates the

163:59 fluid term Avio decreases with offset. looked at the wet Avio decreases with

164:09 . We looked at the gas Avio with offset. The linear approximation equation

164:16 inadequate. We're going to have to the full lasted. We need more

164:25 than conventional Avio attributes. Well, , we try to show one and

164:33 is on the what case if you the amplitude magnitude was approaching zero.

164:44 is a CD P gather and we at the amplitude of magnitude. It

164:51 from my gosh, it went from to minus over here. That's a

164:58 on the timing line and that's plus got a zone of excuse me,

165:08 phase reversal or reverse polarity. This our big signature where we need more

165:16 . That is one way. This what Rutherford and Williams, you're talking

165:23 looking for the dead zone. the Avio equation mathematically those of you

165:34 Excel very simple to program. Let's at each term delta alpha. What

165:44 delta mean? Delta means change in PD wave or whatever property it means

165:54 minus upper, lower minus upper, minus upper density P wave velocity.

166:03 does row mean? What does alpha itself row alpha sitting by itself are

166:11 properties if you see alpha by that means the P wave of the

166:17 medium plus the P wave of the medium divided by two. OK.

166:24 is the, what is PP is incident angle? Ding ding ding alert

166:32 Houston. This is your Houston City sending an alert message. Watch out

166:38 theta you notice incident was fee, don't have fee there. You have

166:46 though the the is the average of incident and the transmitted absolutely essential that

166:58 go there because what will happen for in literature, we saw these big

167:05 on the far offset. They were false because they didn't use the average

167:21 you, you have, you come here with the large Anglesey and then

167:29 it might be a short angle and it goes to a big angle

167:37 So this might be the incident angle but the theta is you take the

167:44 angle and then this lower angle right there you take the average.

167:50 isn't that the same down here? , they're just kind of reversed but

167:55 average angle, the top and the are the same. So what does

168:01 mean? Well, let's come up the top and take a look delta

168:10 . What's delta row? Let's consider top interface, delta row would be

168:19 two minus row one. OK. about this boundary? Oh, it

168:28 still be the lower minus the Oh, but that's just opposite.

168:34 other words, that might be plus the talk, but it would be

168:40 minus for the bottom if you happen have medium one, medium two,

168:51 one again, shill upon shill. this might be plus delta row,

169:00 this would be minus delta road, same for delta alpha, delta beta

169:07 delta right there. These are averages here. So it doesn't make any

169:14 . All of a sudden you can they were reflection coefficient for the upper

169:23 is equal to the reflection coefficient of lower bed with the minus sign.

169:33 this means is as your two reflections closer, closer, closer and closer

169:42 as they get closer, they merge they go to zero because the upper

169:50 coefficient is equal to the minus the . And so as they approach one

169:55 , you get zero reflection, add together. They're at the same location

170:02 it wasn't there, there was always residual left over. Now comes a

170:12 by the name of Ralph Shy Ralph a research geophysicist at Gulf Oil Armor

170:20 . Beautiful time. He said I where the other people like their

170:30 So, but I I'm gonna give something a little bit different. And

170:34 way I present it is a way geoscientists would like, cause I'm gonna

170:43 you what constitutes the amplitude from the traces, what constitutes the amplitude from

170:52 mid and afar? I want to you that this is the acoustic and

170:58 on the air traces the mid to ratio. We already know that because

171:04 pr or so's reflectivity and the far a function of the P wave

171:10 So let's see what that means. said, if you go ahead,

171:19 competes, goes from 0 to 9 . Poison starts at 15 and goes

171:24 90 pw 30 good. What do mean from? Look at the low

171:29 here, you see angle of zero right along this. So your 10

171:34 angle of incident fall something like You're 15 degree lower like that and

171:42 maybe you're 40 degree out like something like that. And then p

171:51 for the very far offset. Isn't interesting at the farther offsets? Look

172:00 this garbage that's coming in. What that? They all hydrocarbons?

172:08 let's, let's take these far Take a look at those, put

172:15 in the middle, here's the the P wave velocity and this is

172:23 middle term and I, I put resistivity curve right beside it and this

172:29 typical Gulf coast and every time you a resistivity that's lower than the other

172:36 that's a sand. Sand has lower than the shell. So every place

172:42 a sand, the resistivity changes look , oh, that's hydrops. Look

172:48 that. Every time I got a sand, the middle term in Chuy's

172:54 has a big amplitude. Well, be darned. That's interesting.

173:02 let's look at how we apply This is Australia and I'm looking at

173:12 and I see this term right That angle, that event is not

173:19 the near offset. This goes from to 2400 m and there's nothing on

173:26 near offset for that reflection. this doesn't have anything on the near

173:34 what is happening here. But we're go back and take a look at

173:41 . This is the normal shale curve yellow or sands, grayer shells.

173:55 replace all the sands with shale. I replaced them. Look at that

174:02 shall, right. OK. Compared the previous right? No, let's

174:10 at three regions right here. The mid and far. What happened

174:21 Look at this song right here. at that song. When I put

174:31 of sand and shale, you get here go like yeah. Holy mackerel

174:38 telling you, it says that there a difference between sand and shale and

174:48 gives you your poisons ratio difference in middle. No, I make it

174:55 sand, I don't think don't have sly. There is all sand and

175:02 , there's nothing in the middle. the difference in mythology. They give

175:07 the reflections. Hey reflection coefficient function theta. You think what I'm supposed

175:15 remember? Cosine squared and N I the difference of poor sos ratio,

175:23 part of the poison reflectivity. That's it's said. The difference of poison

175:28 . The different lithology Poisson's ratio gives mythology. OK? Some thin bed

175:44 . This is a graduate student You ready? I challenge you.

175:55 ? I wanna do this modeling. is real earth. Well, almost

175:59 earth. Real earth and French make mind. Ok? But don't look

176:04 your, you got the answer on . No, no, no.

176:08 at that. How do you get single reflection all by itself? What

176:16 your earth look like? I just one reflection pp tell me what your

176:23 is. So I it's acoustic Did anybody know what the word acoustic

176:32 ? We talk about modeling? No wave velocity, shear wave velocity goes

176:37 zero. Acoustic is air sheer doesn't in air. OK? Acoustic but

176:43 good. I'm not gonna thank you . You're not done yet. You

176:49 to tell me where's the source and . OK. What type of receiver

176:54 you have? That's what explosive thoughts like 51 it's like what kind of

177:07 or an explosive source. OK. type of receiver do you have?

177:14 It's a matter what? Well, it's a hydrophilic matter wouldn't it.

177:20 if you had a hydrophone sitting out , when the explosion goes off,

177:27 gonna get a direct arrival. You have a direct arrival on this

177:33 Oh, so any better help how get rid of the director of?

177:48 trying to take a peek at his . That's ok. It took me

177:51 though. You have vertical geophones. if you have a vertical geo filme

177:59 the energy comes sideways, theoretically, phone doesn't move. Now, let's

178:12 the explosive source and geophones are on surface of the ground. We got

178:19 problem. We got an airwave, ground rule, maybe. So what

178:33 we do? We make this an medium? In other words, it's

178:42 made up of a sand that has share way velocity but then somewhere in

178:50 he cannot make up little hole in and put your earphones in the receivers

178:57 the same de say it another way it, you have this model where

179:04 of air, it's replaced by the weathering zone all the way up to

179:09 middle air is replaced by solid This is what you get,

179:14 OK. So looks like this, have source. Now let's go ahead

179:25 the next one and move the source a little bit. So it's no

179:35 on the surface and air replaces that that went to the moon. Now

179:44 what you get, you get a arrival coming in and you get your

179:53 again like you had before. But you're beginning to see a head wave

180:03 across there very faint. But at critical distance there begins the head wave

180:10 in this event right here is done to back a multiple very heavy out

180:23 , big amplitude. But here's the angle. What what they do way

180:29 there. Let's you take a look that. Remember that critical angle,

180:38 reflects with the amplitude of one. magenta re going down there, we

180:48 the critical ray. That angle right at angle is a critical angle.

180:55 if I come down with an amplitude one, I reflect up with an

181:00 of 0.3. But the white ray coming from the dynamite source, it

181:05 its boundary, it reflects with a of one. Now another multiple,

181:12 ray that started inside this critical it bounces again comes off of minus

181:19 bounces here. It's 0.09 but the one still maintains an amplitude of

181:26 And so for it, everything all a sudden that's going along the surface

181:32 gets gigantic amplitude while the multiple decreases time this is the trapped energy.

181:42 the low velocity zone. That's the I told you about all the low

181:46 zones that we have in our Now, they're called leaky modes and

181:58 modes, the leaky modes or all where the race starts inside this magenta

182:07 , the trap modes, obviously they're , they have big amplitudes. So

182:13 we look at our record again, are are multiples. And here,

182:26 are the P one P one P means in the first layer P down

182:33 back up two P one means P P one P one P one.

182:39 this is a little different P one two. So you get down in

182:44 one layer you travel in the second and up in the one layer.

182:48 what that means. You can see various headways. No, not

182:56 Here's the interesting one. This line down here which is associated with a

183:04 called the pre critical. Look at amplitude inside on the far traces big

183:12 , but look inside the leaky You have this tremendous amplitude sitting out

183:19 . Yeah. By the way, tremendous amplitude because it was called your

183:25 waves. Now, we do everything same except to go from the

183:34 we go to the elastic. I have a sheer wave. Lets

183:41 e who look at all the extra I'm getting. Wow. Just because

183:48 added the other velocity. Oh Now you're getting sheer type of a

183:56 that's A P going down, maybe , going back up and so

184:02 So all of a sudden what we off with the simple model, all

184:08 gotta do is add air, give elasticity. And all of a sudden

184:13 got this boundary of rays coming in yet they're very simple. The geology

184:22 is so simple and look at all noise that you get unbelievable. Let's

184:32 you the difference between ray theory and . This is the Gulf of Mexico

184:40 Canyon, deep water. And this the ray theory solution. Ray means

184:49 gotta send a ray down, keep of which of our bets and keep

184:54 of the amplitude coming up. When compare that to the reflectivity, which

185:02 the elastic model, these two look good with that compares very nicely to

185:10 . And a lot of care has go into the ray theory to make

185:16 look like the reflectivity model. But than that, you have to have

185:24 sediments to illustrate that if you have sentiments, you you normally have the

185:33 any reflectivity the same. Say it way you can believe you're modeling,

185:39 can believe tips modeling. But if go to more consolidated sediments, there's

185:48 ray theory on the left and there's reflectivity all of a sudden they match

185:59 where they're unconsolidated. But when you to big reflection coefficient, everything goes

186:07 just really big, very bad. , to show you the difference.

186:15 an elastic, this has sheer wave in there. This is the

186:23 there's no sheer weight in here. how clean it looks, look how

186:30 you get in here if the sheer goes to zero and I give you

186:36 elastic mono acoustic, all the all this noise, it's from the

186:48 way. Think if we could understand that noise really means, think of

187:00 we could define our real earth. , there's just a lot of energy

187:06 there that we are not able to it, decipher it. What do

187:15 think we'll ever be able to do ? I don't know. Maybe A

187:19 one of these days would be something would help, but there's still something

187:24 to aim for in our computer I told you what Carl Savit said

187:32 time, he was a scientific advisor one of the presidents, Executive vice

187:45 for Western Geophysical. Uh Everybody still combat. There's not a computer system

187:53 can be built that a geophysicist won't it to its knees. We will

188:00 make it so we can handle our . And I guess we're kind of

188:07 . Now, when you look at kind of recording that Saudi Arabia

188:16 when you look at the fact that have 24 vibrators going simultaneously, the

188:25 never stops. They have to take data. It consists of 24 different

188:33 located all the way around your Sir. They do what they call

188:38 lend them. In other words, a record for each one of those

188:43 . What is the record? 5 100,000 channels. You have 500,000 receivers

188:50 their drive. You have 24 So every 28 seconds, 30

188:59 you're getting another 500,000 records that have be de blended, broken apart.

189:10 only process the data one time. can't afford to do it. I

189:16 can't make a mistake and they can't a lot of the today's current

189:23 It's just too expensive. It, brings the computer to its knees.

189:32 . I have the n tomorrow is to be full surprises. The biggest

189:40 is going to be rain. He me. Ok. Um I,

189:48 can't say cancel the class. We're gonna have to hope that we get

189:54 when it's not raining too hard and pack an extra suit of clothes and

190:03 nice garbage bag and wrap it and tape on it. Hey, you

190:10 float, float. Yeah. any comments or questions? What

190:24 What about it? That
