Understanding Basement Fracture Architecture in Padra Field, South Cambay Basin, India, through Full-Azimuth Imaging
Detection and characterization of fractures in reservoirs is important for maximizing hydrocarbon productivity and recovery efficiency. Seismic attributes like coherency and curvature that are derived from reflection seismic data are used to detect faults and fractures. In advanced seismic fracture detection technology, Automatic Fault Extraction from diffraction seismic data effectively detects finer scale features.
Read this article to learn how this methodology was applied to seismic data from the Padra Field in India.

Carbon Capture Utilization and Storage (CCUS) has the potential to play a key role in reducing emissions, and permanently storing the captured CO2 in the subsurface makes it an essential part of the solution. However, storing the carbon has its challenges, ranging from assessing geologic reservoirs to containment for permanent and safe storage, among others.
