Introduction to controlled-source electromagnetic methods : detecting subsurface fluids / Anton Ziolkowski, Evert Slob.

By: Ziolkowski, Anton, 1946- [author.].
Contributor(s): Slob, Evert C. (Evert Cornelis), 1962- [author.].
Material type: materialTypeLabelBookPublisher: Cambridge : Cambridge University Press, 2019Description: 1 online resource (xvi, 300 pages) : digital, PDF file(s).Content type: text Media type: computer Carrier type: online resourceISBN: 9781107415904 (ebook).Subject(s): Earth (Planet) -- Electric properties | Earth (Planet) -- Magnetic properties | Earth (Planet) -- Crust | Electromagnetic fields | Electric prospectingAdditional physical formats: Print version: : No titleDDC classification: 551 Online resources: Click here to access online Summary: This volume describes how controlled-source electromagnetic (CSEM) methods are used to determine the electrical conductivity and hydrocarbon content of the upper few kilometres of the Earth, on land and at sea. The authors show how the signal-to-noise ratio of the measured data may be maximised via suitable choice of acquisition and processing parameters and selection of subsequent data analysis procedures. Complete impulse responses for every electric and magnetic source and receiver configuration are derived, providing a guide to the expected response for real data. 1-D, 2-D and 3-D modelling and inversion procedures for recovery of Earth conductivity are presented, emphasising the importance of updating model parameters using complementary geophysical data and rock physics relations. Requiring no specialist prior knowledge of electromagnetic theory, and providing a step-by-step guide through the necessary mathematics, this book provides an accessible introduction for advanced students, researchers and industry practitioners in exploration geoscience and petroleum engineering.
