Background
Infrasonic Passive Differential Spectroscopy IPDS®
• New technology for hydrocarbon reservoir detection and
monitoring developed since 1995 by a group of scientists in
cooperation with international oil companies
• Currently set up for hydrocarbon detection in any onshore
environment
• Hardware: Ultra sensitive low frequency Oil Seismometer
• Applied and tested over 400 fields

TECHNOLOGY
ₒ Infra Passive Seismic Differential Spectroscopy “IPDS” is new technology for
hydrocarbon reservoir ( Gas & Oil) detection and monitoring natural signals occurring in
the ground.
ₒ IPDS can be acquired as Pre-seismic or after seismic survey, and applies IPDS as stand
alone or complementary technology for hydrocarbon exploration and monitoring tool.
ₒ It is clean and environment friendly, it can be run in any conditions.
ₒ Data acquisition employs custom designed surface arrays of ultra high resolution
broadband seismometers. Our in-house processing and evaluation technology results in
reservoir hydrocarbon indicator and give net-pay zone thickness estimation of
hydrocarbons in the subsurface.
ₒ Used in conjunction with conventional exploration technologies (2D-3D seismic, gravity,
magnetic surveys, surface geo-chemistry, remote sensing & etc.) to reduce
uncertainties.
ₒ Makes a considerable contribution to reduce the dry well risk (avoid dry wells), resulting
in lower costs in investment ($ per oil barrel).

Objectives

➢ To Demonstrate the passive seismic survey with wells


results.
➢ To Show the statistical results of drilled wells before and
after drilling.
➢ To provide the correlation coefficient results between net
pay zones (NPZ) and Passive Seismic anomalies Reservoir
Hydrocarbon Indications – (RHI)
➢ To Avoid Drilling Dry Wells, Reduce Cost & Minimize Risk.

BACKGROUND

1. Total run 130 worldwide Passive Seismic surveys

2. 17 passive seismic surveys with developed fields and exploration areas in UAE

3. Total passive seismic measuring points are over 20,000 data points

4. The survey covered over one hundreds drilled wells, with over 15 wells before

drilling

5. The wells correlation with passive seismic survey results (success ratio) is

ranging between 80% to 97%.

6. To calculate net pay zones required: Wells drilling data, test results, well logs,

water saturation and porosity logs. Other need current well status.

Conclusions
➢ Worldwide acquired over 130 Passive seismic surveys, with
over 20,000 data measuring points.
➢ Over hundred drilled wells survey have 86% to 97%
correlation with Reservoir Hydrocarbon Indications.
➢ Over 15 drilled wells have good correlation results with
Passive Seismic survey after drilling came very close to the
predication - over 86% accuracy.
➢ Statistically; average correlation coefficient between net
pay zone and Passive seismic anomalies over 80%
➢ Reduce drilling risk below 20%
