Fracture Spacing and Orientation Estimation from Spectral Analyses of Azimuth Stacks
Discrete, vertically aligned fracture systems impart one or more notches in the spectral ratios of stacked reflected seismic traces. This apparent attenuation is due to the azimuth dependant scattering introduced by the fractures. The most prominent notch is located at the frequency where the P wave...
