In areas where steep dips are encountered conventional practice in resistivity work has involved orienting arrays favourably in relation to the geological strike. In concealed conditions, however, the geological strike may not be known; moreover, strike may change with depth. Considerable advantage is to be gained, in such circumstances, by the use of crossed square arrays in that these yield orientationally insensitive resistivity measurements and also allow strike determinations and measurements of the effective vertical anisotropy. Two traverses of crossed square array observations are presented, together with one deeper sounding. The results show that, in favourable circumstances, reliable data on concealed strike directions can be obtained, and that the anisotropy findings greatly assist the subsequent interpretation. Model results pertinent to the field material are presented and discussed. 相似文献

Consideration is given to the use of a configuration of four electrodes set in a square array for resistivity measurements. It is found that, by passing current successively between different pairs of electrodes, an apparent resistivity can be determined which is both more sensitive to the position of the array centre and less dependent on orientation than the measures usually obtained with colinear arrays of electrodes. At the same time the observations made enable the degree of the departure of local conditions from conditions of lateral homogeneity to be assessed. Theoretical and practical examples of the use of this electrode system are given and the use of the system both as a tool in mapping and in depth investigations is considered. It is shown that provided electrode spacings are suitably arranged the results of a probe carried out using the square array can be interpreted by conventional methods. The system is shown to have particular advantages in the investigation of lateral resistivity variations and the reduced dependence on orientation makes possible the recasting of interpretation data in an orientationally invariant form with a consequent drastic reduction in the number of type curves required for a particular problem. 相似文献

The effectiveness of azimuthal apparent-resistivity measurements as a method for determining fracture strike orientations 总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2

Azimuthal apparent-resistivity measurements are made for the purpose of determining the strike direction of subvertical fracture sets. Data are collected about a common centre, with an electrode array expanded along a sufficient number of azimuths to define the variation of apparent resistivity with orientation. The apparent resistivities for any one electrode spacing are then plotted in a polar diagram. If the data form an ellipse, this is often interpreted as reflecting aligned, subvertical fracturing. However, it is also possible for heterogeneity within the rockmass to manifest itself, at the scale of the measurement, as a variation of apparent resistivity with azimuth. It is recommended that the offset Wenner array is used for all measurements and that a parameter is introduced, the homogeneity index, which defines whether the variations due to homogeneous anisotropy, such as subvertical fracturing, are greater than those due to inhomogeneity. This simple parameter, which is the quotient of two standard deviations, is valid for both single-peaked and multiple-peaked ellipses. A four-stage scheme for the interpretation of azimuthal data is suggested and a consistent set of quantitative measures is recommended. These will allow data, collected by different workers over different lithologies, to be compared. There are a number of geological situations which can give rise to anisotropy within the rockmass and great care is needed when interpreting azimuthal data in terms of aligned fracturing. Numerical modelling of the response to a buried channel of a rotated offset Wenner array demonstrates that elliptical data are generated by such a linear feature. Depending on the location of the array with respect to the channel, these data are either indistinguishable from those generated by aligned fracturing, or can be recognized by application of the homogeneity index. In the case where the response can be identified as being due to a channel, diagnostic information can be derived on the location and strike of the channel. 相似文献

Archaeological indications near Mugardos (Ferrol, NW Spain) suggest the existence of a Roman settlement. In fact, in the area were found pavements, walls with north-south and east-west orientations and some structures that endured heating. These remains are covered by soil, more than 1 m thick, and lie over schists. In order to determine the archaeological potential of the area and to delimit future excavations a geophysical survey, consisting of a joint resistivity and magnetic survey, was planned and carried out. The square array of electrodes was used and the data are discussed as apparent square array resistivity maps and azimuthal inhomogeneity ratio (AIR) maps. The magnetic survey included total field measurements using sensor heights of 0.30 and 2.30 m above the ground, so that a magnetic gradient could be computed.A combined interpretation of both resistivity and magnetic data is discussed. Later excavations have confirmed the geophysical interpretation. 相似文献

Apparent resistivity measurements with the square array technique in the vicinity of a dipping interface have the advantage over collinear array methods that they are less dependent on orientation of the array. In order to exploit this, existing potential solutions for the dipping interface problem have been adapted for the computation of apparent resistivities over such a feature using a square array. Comprehensive interpretation techniques covering this problem are given and the limitations imposed by residual array orientation effects are discussed. 相似文献

A particular methodology adapted to crystalline formations with a thin weathered zone was developed for a village hydrological project, in Benin. A combination of electrical profiles, Schlumberger and square arrays, was able to locate the most fractured zones in the basement. We present some results obtained from theoretical models as well as from field data. The suggested methodology uses both measurements of resistivity and anisotropy. Strong anisotropy and low resistivity indicate the most productive hydrogeological areas. 相似文献

Effect of uneven noise source and/or station distribution on estimating the azimuth anisotropy of surface waves 
下载免费PDF全文
下载免费PDF全文 With the development of the dense array, the surface wave velocity and azimuthal anisotropy under the array can be directly obtained by beamforming the noise cross-correlation functions (NCFs). However, the retrieval of the Green's function by cross-correlating the seismic noise requires that the noise source has a uniform distribution. For the case with uneven noise source, the azimuthal dependence on the sources in the expression for the spatial coherence function, which corresponds to the NCF in the time domain, has the same form as the azimuthal dependence of the surface wave velocity in weakly anisotropic media. Therefore, the uneven noise source will affect the surface wave anisotropy extraction. In this study, three passive seismic methods, i.e., beamforming, SPAC (spatial autocorrelation), and NCF, are compared to demonstrate that an uneven source distribution and uneven station distribution have equivalent effects on the outcome from each method. A beamforming method is proposed to directly extract the velocity and azimuthal anisotropy of surface waves. The effect of uneven noise source and/or station distribution on estimating the azimuth anisotropy of surface waves was investigated using data from the ChinArray Phase II. A method for correcting the apparent anisotropy in beamforming results caused by an uneven station distribution is suggested. 相似文献

Consideration is given to the form of apparent resistivity sections obtained by varying electrode array position and spacing over two dimensional features. Since basic solutions exist for horizontally layered media and for vertical or dipping single interfaces, simple rules are proposed whereby these solutions can be directly combined to give solutions for more complex sections. Substantial approximations may be involved as the rules do not fully allow for interactions between the constituents. The range of error incurred in application of the rules is explored, with particular reference to the square array system of resistivity measurement. The two extremes- of orientation of the square array with respect to the line of section are separately considered in this survey. Within appropriate limits, the rules appear extendable to a wide variety of simple structures for which rigorous solutions would be formidable. The rules are finally discussed in relation to practical applications. 相似文献

ON THE COMPLETENESS OF DATA SETS WITH MULTIELECTRODE SYSTEMS FOR ELECTRICAL RESISTIVITY SURVEY 总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1
This paper describes how, using a surface linear array of equally spaced electrodes, potential data can be obtained for use in electrical resistivity imaging. The aim is to collect a complete data set which contains all linearly independent measurements of apparent resistivity on such an array using two-, three- or four-electrode configurations. From this primary data set, it is shown that any other value for apparent resistivity on the array can be synthesized through a process of superposition. Numerical tests show that such transformations are exact within the machine error for calculated data but that their use with real field data may lead to noise amplification. 相似文献

Downhole resistivity measurements provide valuable information for geosteering and formation evaluation. It is important to understand and correct the environmental effects, such as the borehole, the tool eccentricity and the resistivity anisotropy effects, of the measurements based on fast and accurate modelling methods. A new pseudo-analytic solution for eccentric coaxial and tilted-coil antennas in the cylindrically multilayered medium with transverse isotropic conductivity was developed. This method can take the eccentric tool, the borehole, the mud invasion and the resistivity anisotropy into account. These formulas enable us to simulate the responses of the downhole induction logging tools, including induction wireline and azimuthal propagation logging-while-drilling measurements. Instead of using the prior fictitious boundary, the generalized reflection coefficients are proposed to construct the linear matrix functions to deal with the tool eccentricity. The cylindrical functions are reorganized and presented in forms of ratios. Thus, the proposed formulas obviate the overflow issue in the computation and are more stable and efficient. The proposed approach is compared and validated with other well-established methods. Simulations and case studies show that: (1) the responses of azimuthal resistivity logging-while-drilling tool are affected by the tool's eccentricity in both isotropic and anisotropic medium; (2) sine curve behaviours exist for the phase difference and amplitude ratio of azimuthal resistivity measurements along with different eccentricity azimuth. 相似文献

Relationships for the mutual impedance of horizontal coplanar, vertical coplanar, perpendicular and vertical coaxial loop
antenna arrays operating at a high frequency, located over a layered conducting medium, have been derived. The relationships
take into account the occurrence of displacement currents in both the free space and the conducting medium. The relations
can be used for calculating the earth parameters in geophysical prospecting. The use of high frequency antenna array makes
it possible to determine distributions of apparent resistivity as well as apparent electrical permittivity. The potential
application of the measurements of mutual impedance of loop antennas operating at a high frequency to the geophysical examinations
is presented. The measuring system developed for this purpose is described. A simple method of interpreting the mutual impedance
measurements to obtain the traces of apparent resistivity and apparent permittivity of the investigated earth is given. 相似文献

Basic Laterolog devices employ a measure-current focusing technique to provide well logs of formation resistivity that feature sharp vertical definition combined with a depth of investigation much improved over those of normals of comparable spacings. To develop the concept of measure-current focusing, a disk-electrode arrangement analogous to a guard-ring capacitor is considered first, leading finally to consideration of a real sonde in a cylindrical borehole. In the latter, auxiliary currents are adjusted to maintain substantially at zero the vertical potential gradients above and below the central measure-current electrode; this has the effect of focusing the measure-current beam. However, prediction of sonde responses on the basis of current patterns can in some cases be misleading. Indeed, for a given Laterolog array, one may use a (reciprocalmode) current pattern radically different from the one defined by the basic (direct-mode) measure-current focusing scheme and still obtain the same resistivity measurement. This feature is illustrated for Laterolog 3 by use of transfer impedances, and demonstrated for certain more general cases using the reciprocity theorem. Comparisons of Laterolog responses across typical thin beds, both non-invaded and invaded, with those of normal devices of a comparable range of spacings illustrate the improved vertical resolution obtained with Laterolog devices. The examples also show the different magnitudes of the auxiliary currents (thenceforth designated “bucking”- or “focusing” currents) used in the direct and reciprocal modes and illustrate how these currents must continuously vary in order to maintain the focused condition as the sonde moves through the bed. Finally, briefly considering possible applications of Laterolog-type arrays in surface prospecting, it is shown that a one-dimensional array laid out on the surface does not provide the same degree of measure-current focusing as is obtained in a borehole. Some improvement is obtained with a combination of two crossed linear arrays. Much more is obtained using a circular array. 相似文献

Introduction The method of apparent resistivity with direct current (DC) measurement, adopted from geophysical exploration, is one of the most important precursory approaches in earthquake prediction, in which the geo-electric constitutive model is illustrated by the scalar theory Archies law and correspondingly a set of calculation methods for apparent resistivity of layered media has been established (QIAN, et al, 1985; YAO, 1989). But this is not consistent with the fact that in earthqu… 相似文献

Knowledge about the spatial distribution of the fracture density and the azimuthal fracture orientation can greatly help in optimizing production from fractured reservoirs. Frequency-dependent seismic velocity and attenuation anisotropy data contain information about the fractures present in the reservoir. In this study, we use the measurements of velocity and attenuation anisotropy data corresponding to different seismic frequencies and azimuths to infer information about the multiple fracture sets present in the reservoir. We consider a reservoir model with two sets of vertical fractures characterized by unknown azimuthal fracture orientations and fracture densities. Frequency-dependent seismic velocity and attenuation anisotropy data is computed using the effective viscoelastic stiffness tensor and solving the Christoffel equation. A Bayesian inversion method is then applied to measurements of velocity and attenuation anisotropy data corresponding to different seismic frequencies and azimuth to estimate the azimuthal fracture orientations and the fracture densities, as well as their uncertainties. Our numerical examples suggest that velocity anisotropy data alone cannot recover the unknown fracture parameters. However, an improved estimation of the unknown fracture parameters can be obtained by joint inversion of velocity and attenuation anisotropy data. 相似文献

Constructing the Apparent Geological Model by Fusing Surface Resistivity Survey and Borehole Records

We constructed an apparent geological model with resistivity data from surface resistivity surveys. We developed a data fusion approach by integrating dense electrical resistivity measurements collected with Schlumberger arrays and wellbore logs. This approach includes an optimization algorithm and a geostatistic interpolation method. We first generated an apparent formation factor model from the surface resistivity measurements and groundwater resistivity records with an inverse distance method. We then converted the model into a geology model with the optimized judgment criteria from the algorithms relating the apparent formation factors to the borehole geology. We also employed a non-parametric bootstrap method to analyze the uncertainty of the predicted sediment types, and the predictive uncertainties of clay, gravel, and sand were less than 5%. Overall, our model is capable of capturing the spatial features of the sediment types. More importantly, this approach can be arranged in a self-updated sequence to enable adjustments to the model to accommodate newly collected core records or geophysical data. This approach yields a more detailed apparent geological model for use in future groundwater simulations, which is of benefit to multi-discipline studies. 相似文献
