US Patent:

7599251, Oct 6, 2009

Filed:

Mar 14, 2008

Appl. No.:

12/048722

Inventors:

Jeff L. Love - Georgetown TX, US
Charles Puryear - Houston TX, US

Assignee:

Seispec, L.L.C. - Georgetown TX

International Classification:

G01V 1/00

US Classification:

367 49, 367 25, 367 37

Abstract:

The method for exploring desired characteristics of a subsurface sector, having at least one resonant frequency, is based on selectively transmitting suitable narrowband energy waves into the subsurface sector, thereby producing narrowband signals reflected off the subsurface sector. The transmitted narrowband energy waves can be selectively and optimally adjusted in real time so as to provide optimum illumination of the desired characteristics from the explored sector.

Appl. No.:

12/604257

Inventors:

Jeff L. Love - Georgetown TX, US
Charles Ian Puryear - Houston TX, US

Assignee:

Seispec, L.L.C. - Georgetown TX

International Classification:

G01V 1/00

US Classification:

367 32, 367 49

Abstract:

A system and method are disclosed for exploring a subsurface region that contains a target sector of interest. The method comprises providing information about the harmonic response for the target sector of interest and a seismic source. The method comprises controlling the seismic source to provide seismic waves in a narrowband selected on the basis of the information about the harmonic response for the target sector of interest. The method comprises activating the seismic source so as to introduce seismic waves into the subsurface sector and sensing reflections of the seismic waves at a seismic receiver.
