Shoja, Aydin (author)
Reflection seismology aims to estimate the Earth's subsurface elastic parameters for further investigation by geologists and engineers. This involves generating elastic waves using seismic sources and recording the Earth's response with receivers. The subsurface model is typically considered a combination of a background model and a short...

van IJsseldijk, J.E. (author)
Monitoring time-lapse changes inside the subsurface is of great significance to many geotechnical applications, such as storage of gasses in underground geological formations. Minute differences in the seismic wavefield between an initial baseline and a subsequent monitor survey have to be detected in order to observe fluid flow inside...

El Marhfoul, B. (author)
Geophysics is a branch of physics that is mainly concerned about under- standing and describing the physical behaviour and activities of the earth’s geological system. Usually, seismic data is acquired at the surface and the corresponding signals go through a sequence of preprocessing steps to filter out the noise and enhance the quality of the...

Nearly-simultaneous-source (blended) acquisition differs from conventional acquisition in that seismic wavefields originating from different sources are allowed to overlap in the recorded seismic traces. This allows more flexibility in deciding the number of shots, the shot density and the effective acquisition time of a survey, but it adds the...

Ground-penetrating radar (GPR), usually working in the frequency from tens of megahertz to several gigahertz, is widely applied in mapping near-surface applications. In recent decades, GPR is frequently utilized for fluid-related applications, such as groundwater assessment, contaminant monitoring, and water-filled fracture detection, based on...

One of the most crucial estimates retrieved from measured seismic reflection data is the subsurface image. The image provides detailed information of the subsurface of the Earth. Seismic reflection data consists of so-called primary and multiple reflections. Primary reflections are events that have been reflected a single time, while multiple...

Schaller, A.M. (author)
Geophysical methods are widely used for hydrocarbon exploration and time-lapse measurements. One method that can be applied in place of or in addition to the routinely used seismic method, is the Controlled-Source ElectroMagnetic (CSEM) method. The work described in this thesis explores various aspects to improve the land CSEM method for...

Feld, R. (author)
Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) is a non-destructive method that images the subsurface using radar. A transmitter generates a radar pulse. This signal propagates into the ground where it reflects against subsurface heterogeneities, and travels back to the surface. A receiver records the reflected signal. The reflected signal contains information...

Grobbe, N. (author)
In this thesis, I study coupled poroelastic waves and electromagnetic fields in layered media. The focus is two-fold:<br/>1. Increase the theoretical and physical understanding of the seismo-electromagnetic phenomenon by analytically-based numerical modeling.<br/>2. Investigate the potential of seismo-electromagnetic interferometry.<br/><br/...

The non-destructive evaluation with the aim of characterizing objects before or after treatment has taken place, and the monitoring of long-term performance is analyzed in this thesis. Generally, these test methods measure material properties or changes in these properties that decision makers are interested in. There is a variety of non...

Seismic reflection imaging is a popular method to image, characterize and monitor the Earth's subsurface. In this method, seismic signals are sent into the subsurface and their reflections are collected. Strong heterogeneities in upper sections of the subsurface often pose a problem for imaging deeper sections. To overcome these problems, it has...

In marine Controlled-Source Electromagnetics, a boat tows an electric source, whose signal is travelling on various paths to the receiver stations at the ocean bottom. Unfortunately, the signal does not only travel via the subsurface to the receivers, but also directly through the water and via the air-water interface. Signals travelling on the...

In this study we developed algorithms for fast frequency and time domain integral equation modelling for marine controlled-source electromagnetic (CSEM) applications. Solutions of integral equations for CSEM applications in a three-layered earth with an assumed reservoirs is examined using the conjugate gradient fast Fourier transformation (CG...

Wirianto, M. (author)
The main goal of exploration geophysics is to obtain information about the subsurface that is not directly available from surface geological observations. The results are primarily used for finding potential reservoirs that contain commercial quantities of hydrocarbons. A number of possible geophysical methods exists these days to achieve such a...

The area of smart well technology, or closed-loop reservoir management, aims at enhancing oil recovery through a combination of monitoring and control. Monitoring is performed with a wide range of sensors deployed downhole or at the surface. These sensors allow for capturing changes in the reservoir conditions, mainly the fluid movement, at...

In their search for improved and new exploration tools, geophysicists have improved seismic and electromagnetic techniques. Since the 1930s it is known that there is a coupling between seismic and electromagnetic waves in the shallow subsurface of the earth. Electroseismic surveying and its reciprocal process, seismic-to-electromagnetic...

Sequestration of CO2 in aquifers and coal layers is a promising technique to reduce greenhouse gas emissions. Considering the reservoir properties, e.g. wettability, heterogeneity and the caprocks sealing capacity, the capillary pressure is an important measure to evaluate the efficiency, the success and the safety of storage applications. In...

In the soil sciences it is of great relevance to accurately determine the electromagnetic properties of the soils, specially the complex permittivity. But in the high frequency regime (relevant band for geophysical applications) accurate permittivity measurements are complicated as the relation of the measured quantities with the permittivity...
