Here we present an example of using PP and PS converted-waves for
characterizing volcanic gas reservoirs in Daqing Oilfield in Northeast
China. The volcanic targets are buried at depth raging from 2800m
to 3600m, which often give rise to incoherent P-wave response. To
overcome this problem, a multicomponent seismic experiment was set
up to evaluate the converted-waves recorded by digital MEMS (micro-electro-mechanical
system) sensors. The experiment includes six 2D lines, passing through
ten boreholes drilled for the volcanic reservoirs. Several multicomponent
VSPs have also been acquired for correlation purposes. Analysis the
P- and S-waves from the target formation at the ten borehole locations
reveals very consistent P- and S-wave amplitude anomalies. From the
gas producing wells, the P-wave reflection is consistently weak and
scattered, whilst the PS-wave reflection are consistently strong
and continuous. In contrast from the non-producing wells, both PP-
and PS-waves show continuous and strong reflections. The gas reservoirs
can then be delineated from joint PP- and PS-amplitude analysis and
the results agree with the drilling results in the study area. This
provides conclusive evidence demonstrating the benefit of multicomponent
seismic data from digital MEMS sensors.
