Title:
DOWNHOLE LIBRARY OF MASTER WAVELETS FOR VSP-WHILE-DRILLING APPLICATIONS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO2006001831
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
A controllable seismic source (301) is used in a seismic-while-drilling system for obtaining VSP data. Coded information is sent downhole about the signal generated by said controllable source (301). The information about the seismic source (301) is used for reconstructing the source waveform and processing the VSP data. Optionally, a reference signal measured at one depth (3005, 307, etc.) of the BHA is used for processing of signals at subsequent depths.
