Synopsis

Time Lapse Approach to Monitoring Oil, Gas, and CO2 Storage by Seismic Methods delivers a new technology to geoscientists, well logging experts, and reservoir engineers, giving them a new basis on which to influence decisions on oil and gas reservoir management. Named ACROSS (Accurately Controlled and Routinely Operated Signal System), this new evaluation method is presented to address more complex reservoirs, such as shale and heavy oil. The book also discusses prolonged production methods for enhanced oil recovery. The monitoring of storage zones for carbon capture are also included, all helping the petroleum and reservoir engineer to fully extend the life of a field and locate untapped pockets of additional oil and gas resources. Rounded out with case studies from locations such as Japan, Saudi Arabia, and Canada, this book will help readers, scientists, and engineers alike to better manage the life of their oil and gas resources and reservoirs.

About the Authors

Junzo Kasahara received B.S., M.S., and D.Sc. degrees in geophysics from Nagoya University in 1965, 1967, and 1970, respectively. From 1970 to
1986, and then from 1988 to 2004, he was an assistant, associate, and full professor at the University of Tokyo. He worked in marine seismology. During 1974, 1976, and 1979, he was a visiting associate professor at the University of Hawaii. In 1986, he joined Schlumberger Japan as a manager for seismic interpretation and logging tool design. During his academic work, he published three books with the University of Tokyo Press. He was awarded the title of professor emeritus at the University of Tokyo. In 2004, he joined the Tono Geoscience Center as a senior researcher, where he worked on the ACROSS project. Between 2004 and 2008, he served for the extension of the Japan Continental Shelf. Currently, he is the principal
investigator of the geothermal project and a visiting professor at the University of Shizuoka.
