	title = {Highly repeatable 3D compressive full-azimuth towed-streamer time-lapse acquisition {\textendash}- a numerical feasibility study at scale},
	year = {2017},
	publisher = {SINBAD},
	abstract = {Most conventional 3D time-lapse (or 4D) acquisitions are ocean-bottom cable (OBC) or ocean-bottom node (OBN) surveys since these surveys are relatively easy to replicate compared to towed-streamer surveys. To attain high degrees of repeatability, survey replicability and dense periodic sampling has become the norm for 4D surveys that renders this technology expensive. Conventional towed-streamer acquisitions suffer from limited illumination of subsurface due to narrow azimuth. Although, acquisition techniques such as multi-azimuth, wide-azimuth, rich-azimuth acquisition, etc., have been developed to illuminate the subsurface from all possible angles, these techniques can be prohibitively expensive for densely sampled surveys. This leads to uneven sampling, i.e., dense receiver and coarse source sampling or vice-versa, in order to make these acquisitions more affordable. Motivated by the design principles of Compressive Sensing (CS), we acquire economic, randomly subsampled (or compressive) and simultaneous towed-streamer time-lapse data without the need of replicating the surveys. We recover densely sampled time-lapse data on one and the same periodic grid by using a joint-recovery model (JRM) that exploits shared information among different time-lapse recordings, coupled with a computationally cheap and scalable rank-minimization technique. The acquisition is low cost since we have subsampled measurements (about 70\% subsampled), simulated with a simultaneous long-offset acquisition configuration of two source vessels travelling across a survey area at random azimuths. We analyze the performance of our proposed compressive acquisition and subsequent recovery strategy by conducting a synthetic, at scale, seismic experiment on a 3D time-lapse model containing geological features such as channel systems, dipping and faulted beds, unconformities and a gas cloud. Our findings indicate that the insistence on replicability between surveys and the need for OBC/OBN 4D surveys can, perhaps, be relaxed. Moreover, this is a natural next step beyond the successful CS acquisition examples discussed during this session.},

	title = {Tracking the spatial-temporal evolution of fractures by microseismic source collocation},
	year = {2017},
	publisher = {SINBAD},
	abstract = {Unlike conventional reservoirs, unconventional plays are not naturally viable for economical production of oil and gas. They require stimulation by injecting high-pressure fluid causing fractures in the rocks. These fractures make the medium more permeable, hence, the extraction of oil and gas becomes feasible. For drilling purposes and to prevent potentially hazardous situations, we need to have good knowledge of the location of these fractures. Also, we need to have good knowledge about how these fractures originated in time. Hydraulic fracturing changes stress in rocks, which results in the emission of microseismic waves. The opening of cracks due to high pressure fluid injection during hydraulic fracturing mainly causes this change in stress in the rocks. Therefore, microseismic events are mostly localized along these fractures and have finite energy along time. To accurately track the evolution of fractures in both space and time, we need to locate closely spaced microseismic events along these fractures activating at very small time intervals. A naive approach can be the back propagation of the observed data to find out a point in space and time where maximum focusing of back propagating energy occurs. This point corresponds to the location and origin time of a microseismic source. This approach, although simpler, suffers from low resolution and requires scanning of complete 4D volume (3D in space and 1D in time). Hence, this method can be challenging when there are multiple closely spaced microseismic sources originating at different times. We in this work propose a sparsity promotion based method that can locate closely spaced microseismic events, with spatial separation as low as within half a wavelength, activating at small time intervals. We simultaneously estimate the origin time of microseismic events by estimating their source time functions. Our method exploits the fact that microseismic events are localized in space and have finite energy. We use accelerated Linearized Bregman algorithm with a preconditioning operator to arrive at a computationally feasible scheme.},

	title = {Efficient large-scale 5D seismic data acquisition and processing using rank-minimization},
	year = {2016},
	publisher = {SINBAD},
	abstract = {Seismic data collection is becoming challenging because of increased demands for high-quality, long-offset and wide-azimuth data. Leveraging ideas from CS, in this work we establish a cost effective acquisition and processing techniques, which are no longer dominated by survey area size but by the sparsity of seismic data volumes. In the first part of abstract, we establish connections between random time dithering and jittered sampling in space. Specifically, we recover high-quality 5D seismic data volumes from time-jittered marine acquisition where the average inter-shot time is significantly reduced, leading to cheaper surveys due to fewer overlapping shots. The time-jittered acquisition, in conjunction with the shot separation by Singular-Value Decomposition (SVD)-free factorization based rank-minimization approach, allows us to recover high quality 5D seismic data volumes. Results are illustrated for simulations of simultaneous time-jittered continuous recording for a 3D ocean-bottom cable survey, where we outperforms existing techniques, by an order of magnitude computational speedup and using 1/20th of the memory, that use sparsity in transforms domains. The second part of abstract focussed on leveraging low-rank structure in seismic data to solve extremely large data recovery (interpolation) problems. We introduced a large{\textendash}scale SVD-free optimization framework that is robust with respect to outliers and that uses information on the support. We test the efficacy of the proposed interpolation framework on a large-scale 5D seismic data, generated from the geologically complex synthetic 3D Compass velocity model, where 80\% of the data has been removed. Our findings show that major computational and memory gains are possible compared to curvelet-based reconstruction.},

	year = {2016},
	publisher = {SINBAD},
	abstract = {Microseismic waves generated by hydraulic fracturing are used to locate the fractures created in the reservoir. Most of the existing source collocation methods have their limitations in terms of resolution of very closely spaced microseismic events. In this work we propose a method to collocate microseismic events with high resolution along with simultaneous estimation of source time function. In the context of waves, the finite-difference modelling operator acts as an analysis operator for wavefields. This implies that wavefields under the action of a finite-difference modelling kernel can be focused to sources generating these wavefields. We exploit this property of wavefields to locate microseismic events and estimate the source time function jointly. To arrive at a computational feasible scheme, we use the accelerated version of Linearized Bregman (LBR) algorithm to solve the above mentioned problem. This is joint work with Rongrong Wang.},
