Interpreting seismic anisotropy in fractured reservoirs

An upper limit to the compliance of individual fractures within a reservoir can be determined, given estimates of the effective confining pressure at reservoir depths and the mean aperture of open fractures which is usually obtained from core and well log analysis, The value can then be used with el...
