SEAM RPSEA Project
Michael Fehler
SEAM Phase I Project Manager
SEAM Phase I
• Model Construction– Density and P-wave velocities described from
rock and reservoir properties
• Variable-density acoustic simulations– Approximately 65,000 shots
SEAM RPSEA
• Research Partnership to Secure Energy for America
• SEAM work supported as part of Ultra-deewater Program
• SEAM will continue to use model developed for Phase I (subsalt)
Main Focus Areas
• Variable-density acoustic simulations with absorbing upper surface
• CSEM simulations– Michael Frenkel will present
• Gravity simulations– Neda Bundalo will present
• Elastic simulations
• Magnetotelluric simulations
Model Development• Additional parameters needed
– Resistivity (vertical and horizontal)– Shear-wave velocity– Decimated density for gravity
• All models are derived using rock physics consistent with that used for acoustic model construction– Leads to very low S-velocities near seafloor
