Although three-dimensional seismic reflection data can image the geometries of faults in the sub-surface, it does not provide any direct information on the physical properties of fault zones. We currently cannot use seismic reflection data to infer directly which faults may be leaking or sealing and are reliant instead on shale-gauge ratio type calculations, which are fraught with uncertainties. In this paper, we propose that full-waveform inversion P-wave velocity models can be used to extract information on fault zone acoustic properties directly, which may be a proxy for subsurface fault transmissibility. In this study, we use high-quality post-stack depth–migrated seismic reflection and full-waveform inversion velocity data to investigate the characteristics of fault zones in the Samson Dome in the SW Barents Sea. We analyse the variance attribute of the post-stack depth migrated and full-waveform inversion volumes, revealing linear features that consistently appear in both datasets. These features correspond to locations of rapid velocity changes and seismic trace distortions, which we interpret as faults. These observations demonstrate the capability of full-waveform inversion to recover fault zone velocity structures. Our findings also reveal the natural heterogeneity and complexity of fault zones, with varying P-wave velocity anomalies within the studied fault network and along individual faults. Our results indicate a correlation between P-wave velocity anomalies within fault zones and the modern-day stress orientation. Faults with high P-wave velocity are the ones that are perpendicular to the present-day maximum horizontal stress orientation and are likely under compression. Faults with lower P-wave velocity are the ones more parallel to the present-day maximum horizontal stress orientation and are likely in extension. We propose that these P-wave velocity anomalies may indicate differences in how ‘open’ and fluid filled the fault zones are (i.e. faults in extension are more open, more fluid filled and have lower <i>V</i><sub>P</sub>) and therefore may provide a promising proxy for fault transmissibility.</p>","PeriodicalId":12793,"journal":{"name":"Geophysical Prospecting","volume":"72 8","pages":"3168-3183"},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-08-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/1365-2478.13586","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141947108","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In this study, we develop an inversion method with the associated workflow to simultaneously recover both the depth to a magnetic basement and a laterally varying magnetic susceptibility in the basement rock. To achieve this, we employ a set of constraints on the inverse problem.

The waveforms generated by a Ricker monopole acoustic transmitter, linear frequency modulation monopole acoustic transmitter and pulse compression signal–driven linear phased array acoustic transmitter in a fluid-filled open borehole are numerically simulated by employing the finite-difference method.

Projection onto convex sets is an effective method for recovering missing seismic data that is typically used for processing data with a good signal-to-noise ratio. The computational attractiveness of the projection onto convex sets reconstruction approach is compromised by its slow convergence rate.
