PEH:Reservoir Geophysics

Petrowiki 

Reservoir geophysics, in contrast to exploration and development geophysics, is a relatively new field. Rather than being limited to assisting in the identification and delineation of prospects, geophysics is now increasingly being used for the characterization of the internal geometry and quality of reservoirs themselves and is often used as a means of monitoring reservoir changes between wells during production. Advances in the reliability of seismic observations and in methods for interpreting these observations in terms of reservoir properties have, together with economic considerations, provided the driving forces for the development of reservoir geophysics. The chapter on Fundamentals of Geophysics in the Reservoir Engineering and Petrophysics section of thisHandbook addresses the concepts used in seismic studies and is a useful introduction to the general topic. This chapter expands on the applications of geophysical technologies to reservoir characterization and monitoring for improved production.
