Rock-physics templates establish a link between seismic properties (eg, velocity, density,
impedance, and attenuation) and reservoir properties such as porosity, fluid saturation …

Fractures in carbonate rocks make the reservoir and its elastic properties complex, which
creates challenges in the geophysical exploration of oil and gas resources. To study the …

Shear wave velocity (S-wave velocity or Vs) is one of the most critical issues for carbonate
reservoirs characterization, because of its complexity of rock compositions and pore …

Abstract The Bakken Formation is a geographically extensive, organic-rich, tight formation in
the Williston Basin and currently serves as the second largest producer of oil in the USA …

Shear wave velocity plays an important role in both reservoir prediction and pre-stack
inversion. However, the current deep learning-based shear wave velocity prediction …

The pore structure in heterogeneous carbonate rock is usually very complex. This complex
pore system makes the relationship between the velocity and porosity of the rock highly …

Carbonate rocks have a complex pore structure, show strong heterogeneity, and have a
wide range of velocities that lead to more complicated velocity-porosity relationships …

Abstract The Kuster–Toksöz (KT) model is a classical rock physics model concerning the
influence of pore geometry on elastic wave velocities. However, this model is limited to a …

Carbonate reservoirs hold promising potential for hydrocarbon exploration, but they usually
exhibit complex pore structures, which lead to difficulties in the seismic/elastic prediction via …

Accurate characterization of carbonate pore types is of great significance for seismic
reservoir characterization. However, the existing pore-type inversion methods cannot …
