Researchers in the field of exploration geophysics have developed new methods for the acquisition, processing and interpretation of gravity and magnetic data, based on detailed investigations of bore wells around the globe. Fractal Models in Exploration Geophysics describes fractal-based models for characterizing these complex subsurface geological structures.
The authors introduce the inverse problem using a fractal approach which they then develop with the implementation of a global optimization algorithm for seismic data: very fast simulated annealing (VFSA). This approach provides high-resolution inverse modeling results―particularly useful for reservoir characterization.
- Serves as a valuable resource for researchers studying the application of fractals in exploration, and for practitioners directly applying field data for geo-modeling
- Discusses the basic principles and practical applications of time-lapse seismic reservoir monitoring technology - application rapidly advancing topic
- Provides the fundamentals for those interested in reservoir geophysics and reservoir simulation study
- Demonstrates an example of reservoir simulation for enhanced oil recovery using CO2 injection

About the Author
Dr. Ravi Prakash Srivastava is a Scientist for CSIR, National Geophysical Research Institute. He has more than 10 years of research experience in processing and interpretation of geophysical data. Currently, he works on the simulation of reservoir models using geophysical and geological and petrophysical data. He is a co-project leader of the Indo-Norwegian project on “Reservoir modelling and simulation study for enhanced oil recovery using gas injection. His research interests include the application of fractals in modelling of complex geological structures, inversion of geophysical data, and reservoir modelling and simulation. He has received the National Geoscience Award in 2012, the CSIR Young Scientist Award in 2010, and the Indian Science Congress Association Young Scientist Award in 2008.
Nimisha Vedanti is a Principal Scientist for CSIR-NGRI and received an M.Sc.Tech (2000) in Exploration Geophysics from Banaras Hindu University, India and Ph.D. (2007) from Osmania University while working at CSIR-National Geophysical Research Institute, India. She held a postdoctoral position (2007-2008) at the University of Texas at Austin, USA under the BOYSCAST fellowship of the Govt. of India. She worked as a visiting scientist at the Department of Geoscience, University of Calgary, Canada, SINTEF Petroleum Research, Trondheim, Norway and Department of Geoscience & Petroleum, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim Norway. Dr. Vedanti is a recipient of the Krishnan Gold Medal-2017 (Indian Geophysical Union), K.R. Gupta Award (2015) of the Geological Society of India, National Geoscience Award (2012), CSIR-Young Scientist Award (2009) and Indian Science Congress Association -Young Scientist Award (2008). Her primary research interests are hydrocarbon exploration and reservoir geophysics, which includes seismic data analysis, reservoir monitoring and geophysical inversion.

Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to THE SAINT BOOKSTORE, Southport, United Kingdom, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods.
