Abstract:

Near‐surface geophysics is being applied to a broader spectrum of problems than ever before, and new application areas are arising continually. Currently, the tools used to examine the near‐surface environment include a variety of noninvasive methods employing electrical, electromagnetic, or mechanical energy sources, along with passive techniques that measure the physical parameters of the earth. Some of the advances of recent years have emerged from breakthroughs in instrumentation and computer‐processing techniques, and some have been driven by societal needs, such as the increasing demand for the accurate geophysical characterization of polluted sites. Other compelling factors, such as the ever‐expanding need for groundwater, the enactment of laws that have spurred geophysical surveying for archaeological purposes, and the necessity for better soil‐physics information in geotechnical engineering and agriculture, are present worldwide. For historical context, the reader is referred to an excellent review concerning the status of shallow exploration techniques in the mid-1980s (Dobecki and Romig, 1985).

Abstract:

The results of the works undertaken by students on practical classes and during educational practices have been discussed. Causes and difficulties in student learning of exploratory geophysics have been analyzed. It has been found a deficiency in practical skills of future engineers relevant to the work with geophysical facilities and equipment and further mental processing of the measured parameters of natural and artificial geophysical fields. A brief description has been given for improvements in the methodology of teaching geophysics to future geology and geoecology engineers via inclusion of practical works with geophysical equipment on the test site on the Zorge Street with tasks linked to engineering-geological cross-section study and mapping underground infrastructure on the given area. There are some other examples of student involvement in solution of geophysical tasks on the objects of educational geophysical practices with subsequent detailed geological and geophysical interpretation.

Full text

Abstract:

The methodologies of microgeophysics have been derived from the geophysical ones, for the sake of solving specific diagnostic and/or monitoring problems regarding civil engineering and cultural heritage studies. Generally, the investigations are carried out using different 2D and 3D tomographic approaches as well as different energy sources: sonic and ultrasonic waves, electromagnetic (inductive and impulsive) sources, electric potential fields, and infrared emission. Many efforts have been made to modify instruments and procedures in order to improve the resolution of the surveys as well as to significantly reduce the time of the measurements without any loss of information. This last point has been achieved by using multichannel systems. Finally, some applications are presented, and the results seem to be very promising and promote this new branch of geophysics. Therefore, these methodologies can be used even more to diagnose, monitor, and safeguard not only engineering buildings and/or large structures, but also ancient monuments and cultural artifacts, such as pottery, statues, and so forth.

Abstract:

AbstractOver the past decades, the development of fibre optic cables, which pass light waves carrying data guided by total internal reflection, has led to advances in high-speed and long-distance communication, large data transmission, optical imaging, and sensing applications. Thus far, fibre optic sensors (FOSs) have primarily been employed in engineering, biomedicine, and basic sciences, with few reports of their usage in geophysics as point and distributed sensors. This work aimed at reviewing the studies on the use of FOSs in geophysical applications with their fundamental principles and technological improvements. FOSs based on Rayleigh, Brillouin, and Raman scatterings and fibre Bragg grating sensors are reviewed based on their sensing performance comprising sensing range, spatial resolution, and measurement parameters. The recent progress in applying distributed FOSs to detect acoustic, temperature, pressure, and strain changes, as either single or multiple parameters simultaneously on surface and borehole survey environments with their cable deployment techniques, has been systematically reviewed. Despite the development of fibre optic sensor technology and corresponding experimental reports of applications in geophysics, there have not been attempts to summarise and synthesise fibre optic methods for prospecting as a comprehensive and modern branch of geophysics. Therefore, this paper outlines the fibre optic prospecting methods, with an emphasis on their advantages, as a guide for the geophysical community. The potential of the new outlined fibre optic prospecting methods to revolutionise conventional geophysical approaches is discussed. Finally, the future challenges and limitations of the new prospecting methods for geophysical applications are elucidated.

Full text

Abstract:

We present an approach to the use of electomagnetic geophysical methods for delineating groundwater contamination, and test the concepts at three waste disposal sites. The approach includes a technique for modelling a site's response to a variety of instruments, and a device-independent method of contouring the data. The modelling attempts to account for the noise inherent in the measurement process, particularly the effects of lateral variations in stratigraphy. These concepts are evaluated by comparing the geophysical response to groundwater conductivities measured in sampling wells. We conclude that geophysics offers a cost-effective supplement to drilling, and that it is best used in a reconnaissance mode to map the general distribution of contamination prior to a detailed sampling program. The correlation between the observed and predicted geophysical response as a function of groundwater conductivity is as good as can be expected given the uncertainties in the process. The methodology proposed is simple to use and practical. Key words: groundwater, contamination, geophysics, electromagnetic, mapping, modelling.

Abstract:

As unconventional resources continue to be the focus of many operating companies, applications of cost-efficient practices along with technological advancements in drilling and completion will continue to be key enablers for efficiency and obtaining economies of scale. However, this pursuit of efficiency has led to a perception that developing these resources is strictly an engineering-optimization endeavor. This perception suppresses the value of geophysics in addressing uncertainties related to reservoir quality and completion effectiveness. Eventually, it may hinder unlocking the full potential of these resources. Despite this narrative about efficiency versus effectiveness, geophysics is challenged by inherent constraints such as noise, resolution of data, and the ability to identify economic sweet-spot fairways. Therefore, geophysicists encounter difficulties quantifying the value of geophysics in unconventional resource plays and struggle expressing it in economic terms. This paper sheds light on an SEG workshop, “Maximizing the value of geophysics in unconventional resource plays,” that was conducted in Dubai in October 2018. A total of 52 attendees from 17 companies and nine countries took home one common message: “How can my geophysical work positively impact the bottom line, i.e., $/BOE.” The workshop addressed questions related to how the value of geophysics can be realized and measured throughout the unconventional asset life cycle and how this value can be maximized and expressed in economic terms.

Abstract:

AbstractAn analysis has been made of the usefulness of surface geophysical site investigations as part of a rural water supply programme carried out in southern Kano State, northern Nigeria. Field work was undertaken under the auspices of the Kano State Agricultural Rural Development Project in conjunction with Groundwater Development Consultants (International) Ltd, Cambridge. The database for this study consists of the results of surface geophysical site investigations at over 200 rural villages and comprised electrical resistivity and/or electromagnetic ground conductivity methods together with hydrogeological data from boreholes drilled as tubewells. The groundwater potential of southern Kano State was determined as a result of field studies of hand-dug wells, water table levels, geological and geomorphological mapping, the use of aerial photographs and, in particular, surface geophysics. Areas with poor groundwater potential were successfully highlighted. A drilling programme was planned on the basis of these field studies which allowed the drilling rigs to be used to maximum effectiveness providing successful tubewells whilst the more problematical sites were investigated further. Wildcat wells sited without the aid of geophysics and drilled in the Basement Complex of the Younger Granite terrain in Kano State resulted in unacceptably high failure rates (c. 70%). Once geophysical methods were introduced, the failure rate fell to less than 32% and, following further development of geophysical field and interpretation techniques, the final failure rate was around 17%. For a project whose target was 1000 successful tubewells, each costing of the order of £15,000, the saving to the client as a result of reduced number of failures was of the order of £5 million. The use of resistivity surveys, especially in conjunction with electromagnetic induction methods, has proved invaluable in the evaluation of groundwater potential and the planning of extensive drilling programme in southern Kano State.

Abstract:

Abstract and IntroductionGeophysical field measurements are now more frequently employed to gain information about the ground conditions, so that construction projects can be economically and safely designed. This is especially the case for offshore structures and nuclear power plants or where the ground conditions are poor.Large scale structures require aseismic design and this area of application has been greatly improved, as we can accurately analyse the dynamic properties of the ground. Instruments are also available to monitor the ground behaviour during and after construction so that the new stress conditions can be evaluated.The fields which have been improved recently are: the seismic reflection technique for shallow exploration, the measurement of shear wave velocity to determine dynamic modulus, borehole measurement of all types and most recently radar to give a continuous high resolution section of the near surface. All these techniques have been improved by new technology enhancing the display and plotting capability and S/N ratio, as well as continued development of the theoretical problem.

The authors consider the problem of applicability and sensitivity of methods of ground geophysics for studying the state of rock massifs in the permafrost zone. Using the example of gold deposits in Magadan Oblast, they study and analize peculiarities of changes in the values of electrical resistivity and induced polarization of soils, depending on their cryogenic state. Sufficiently high efficiency of geophysical methods in distinguishing thawed, seasonally thawed, locally frozen, and permafrost rocks is substantiated. The research results are recommended for optimizing field development processes in various engineering and geological settings.

Abstract:

Streaming potential in rocks is the electrical potential developing when an ionic fluid flows through the pores of rocks. The zeta potential is a key parameter of streaming potential and it depends on many parameters such as the mineral composition of rocks, fluid properties, temperature etc. Therefore, the zeta potential is different for various rocks and liquids. In this work, streaming potential measurements are performed for five rock samples saturated with six different monovalent electrolytes. From streaming potential coefficients, the zeta potential is deduced. The experimental results are then explained by a theoretical model. From the model, the surface site density for different rocks and the binding constant for different cations are found and they are in good agreement with those reported in literature. The result also shows that (1) the surface site density of Bentheim sandstone mostly composed of silica is the largest of five rock samples; (2) the binding constant is almost the same for a given cation but it increases in the order KMe(Na+) < KMe(K+) < KMe(Cs+) for a given rock.References Corwin R.

Abstract:

The paper starts with a brief review of the literature about uncertainty in geological, geophysical and petrophysical data. In particular, we present the viewpoints of experts in geophysics on the application of Bayesian inference and subjective probability. Then we present arguments that the use of classical probability theory (CP) does not match completely the structure of geophysical data. We emphasize that such data are characterized by contextuality and non-Kolmogorovness (the impossibility to use the CP model), incompleteness as well as incompatibility of some geophysical measurements. These characteristics of geophysical data are similar to the characteristics of quantum physical data. Notwithstanding all this, contextuality can be seen as a major deviation of quantum theory from classical physics. In particular, the contextual probability viewpoint is the essence of the Växjö interpretation of quantum mechanics. We propose to use quantum probability (QP) for decision-making during the characterization, modelling, exploring and management of the intelligent hydrocarbon reservoir . Quantum Bayesianism (QBism), one of the recently developed information interpretations of quantum theory, can be used as the interpretational basis for such QP decision-making in geology, geophysics and petroleum projects design and management. This article is part of the themed issue ‘Second quantum revolution: foundational questions’.

Abstract:

Because of a change in emphasis from power plant siting to projects principally involving process and facility monitoring and certification of existing structures (dams, pipelines, etc.), geotechnical and groundwater geophysics is in quite a healthy state after some lean years following the demise of nuclear energy construction projects. The orders‐of‐magnitude jump in the computational capability of geophysicists working in these fields has overshadowed advances in instrumentation (e.g., digital enhancement seismographs), field methods (e.g., cross‐borehole EM), and interpretive procedures. The advent of powerful, affordable microcomputers has enabled expansion into applications demanding finer resolution and quicker turnaround of results. As a result, shallow seismic reflection, seismic and electromagnetic geotomography, and the complementary use of surface and borehole electrical resistivity and seismic data will soon be common if not dominant methods in geotechnical and groundwater investigations. Future trends point to increased emphasis on environmental and economic issues (e.g., toxic wastes or the stability of underground petroleum storage facilities), cross‐fertilization with petroleum reservoir engineering (process monitoring and detailed reservoir description), and greater involvement of computers in the planning, data acquisition, and interpretive phases of our projects. As computers take over more of the data collection‐processing‐interpretation sequence, one of the greatest challenges facing us will be to define the proper role of humans and to use the new technology wisely.

Abstract:

Three components of the SEG strategic vision statement are (1) to connect the world of applied geophysics, (2) to show the world the power of applied geophysics, and (3) to connect geology and engineering to geophysics. These components are directly related to how SEG reaches out to its membership, so let me illustrate how SEG fulfills this strategic vision.
