Fracture quality images from 4D VSP and microseismic data at Jonah Field, WY.

Natural and induced fractures provide the only means of production in tight gas sand reservoirs. The objective of this work is to locate and characterize natural and induced fractures from the analysis of scattered waves recorded on 4-D (time lapse) VSP data in order to optimize well placement an...
