Abstract:
Rock physics links the physical properties of rocks to geophysical and petrophysical observations and, in the process, serves as a focal point in many exploration and reservoir characterization studies. Today, the field of rock physics and seismic petrophysics embraces new directions with diverse applications in estimating static and dynamic reservoir properties through time-variant mechanical, thermal, chemical, and geologic processes. Integration with new digital and computing technologies is gradually gaining traction. The use of rock physics in seismic imaging, prestack seismic analysis, seismic inversion, and geomechanical model building also contributes to the increase in rock-physics influence. This special section highlights current rock-physics research and practices in several key areas, namely experimental rock physics, rock-physics theory and model studies, and the use of rock physics in reservoir characterizations.

Abstract:
Rock-physics models are physical equations that map petrophysical properties into geophysical variables, such as elastic properties and density. These equations are generally used in quantitative log and seismic interpretation to estimate the properties of interest from measured well logs and seismic data. Such models are generally calibrated using core samples and well-log data and result in accurate predictions of the unknown properties. Because the input data are often affected by measurement errors, the model predictions are often uncertain. Instead of applying rock-physics models to deterministic measurements, I have applied the models to the probability density function (PDF) of the measurements. This approach has been previously adopted in the literature using Gaussian distributions, but for petrophysical properties of porous rocks, such as volumetric fractions of solid and fluid components, the standard probabilistic formulation based on Gaussian assumptions is not applicable due to the bounded nature of the properties, the multimodality, and the nonsymmetric behavior. The proposed approach is based on the Kumaraswamy PDF for continuous random variables, which allows modeling double-bounded nonsymmetric distributions and is analytically tractable, unlike beta or Dirichlet distributions. I have developed a probabilistic rock-physics model applied to double-bounded continuous random variables distributed according to a Kumaraswamy distribution and derived the analytical solution of the probability distribution of the rock-physics model predictions. The method is evaluated for three rock-physics models: Raymer’s equation, Dvorkin’s stiff sand model, and Kuster-Toksöz’s inclusion model.

Abstract:
In the spirit of classic rock physics, and as an ideal foundation for conventional quantitative interpretation workflows, we consider several popular models relating elastic rock properties to their composition, microstructure, and effective stress on the background of a worldwide log data set, incorporating sands and shales characterized by the maximum dynamic impedance range. We demonstrate that the patchy cement model, ellipsoidal inclusion model, and siliciclastic diagenesis model may be calibrated successfully against the world data set and used in seismic rock property log restoration/editing. We also demonstrate that some of these models present obvious challenges in terms of the information derived from quantitative seismic interpretation. Notably, the key input parameters used in these rock-physics models may show little resemblance to the rock parameters actually observed in geologic studies. Replacing the true rock parameters with the effective ones may do disservice to the science of rock physics in general.

Abstract:
The estimation of rock and fluid properties from seismic attributes is an inverse problem. Rock-physics modeling provides physical relations to link elastic and petrophysical variables. Most of these models are nonlinear; therefore, the inversion generally requires complex iterative optimization algorithms to estimate the reservoir model of petrophysical properties. We have developed a new approach based on the linearization of the rock-physics forward model using first-order Taylor series approximations. The mathematical method adopted for the inversion is the Bayesian approach previously applied successfully to amplitude variation with offset linearized inversion. We developed the analytical formulation of the linearized rock-physics relations for three different models: empirical, granular media, and inclusion models, and we derived the formulation of the Bayesian rock-physics inversion under Gaussian assumptions for the prior distribution of the model. The application of the inversion to real data sets delivers accurate results. The main advantage of this method is the small computational cost due to the analytical solution given by the linearization and the Bayesian Gaussian approach.

Abstract:
We present a mathematical model of the fracturing of water-saturated rocks and other porous materials in cold climates. Ice growing inside porous rocks causes large pressures to develop that can significantly damage the rock. We study the growth of ice inside a penny-shaped cavity in a water-saturated porous rock and the consequent fracturing of the medium. Premelting of the ice against the rock, which results in thin films of unfrozen water forming between the ice and the rock, is one of the dominant processes of rock fracturing. We find that the fracture toughness of the rock, the size of pre-existing faults and the undercooling of the environment are the main parameters determining the susceptibility of a medium to fracturing. We also explore the dependence of the growth rates on the permeability and elasticity of the medium. Thin and fast-fracturing cracks are found for many types of rocks. We consider how the growth rate can be limited by the existence of pore ice, which decreases the permeability of a medium, and propose an expression for the effective ‘frozen’ permeability.

Abstract:
Rock physics modeling aims to provide a link between rock properties, such as porosity, lithology, and fluid saturation, and elastic attributes, such as velocities or impedances. These models are then used in quantitative seismic interpretation and reservoir characterization. However, most of the geophysical measurements are uncertain; therefore, rock physics equations must be combined with mathematical tools to account for the uncertainty in the data. We combined probability theory with rock physics modeling to make predictions of elastic properties using probability distributions rather than definite values. The method provided analytical solutions of rock physics models in which the input is a random variable whose exact value is unknown but whose probability distribution is known. The probability distribution derived with this approach can be used to quantify the uncertainty in rock physics model predictions and in rock property estimation from seismic attributes. Examples of fluid substitution and rock physics modeling were studied to illustrate the application of the method.

Abstract:
Various types of experiments are used to interrogate the mechanical behavior of rocks. The whole experimental spectrum covers many orders of magnitude in frequency (roughly ten orders of magnitude) and in strain (approximately eight orders of magnitude). These experimental studies have established unambiguously a certain number of robust results, namely, frequency dependence, dependence on stress-strain level (nonlinearity), eventually the presence of hysteresis (stress is not an analytic function of strain), and dependence on the direction of observation (anisotropy). These four behaviors are synthesized in a single model. The model allows direct comparison of the magnitude of the different phenomena (dispersion, nonlinearity, anisotropy) and their combinations in rocks. The frequency dependence of the mechanical properties should not be neglected, but another fundamental parameter, namely, the strain level, is important to explain the mismatch between the “static moduli,” measured with a press in rock mechanics, and the “dynamic moduli,” measured with ultrasonic devices in rock physics, which commonly is not appreciated. Such a unified model helps to make the link between different communities (e.g., rock physics, seismology, applied seismics, and rock mechanics) by using the same mathematical tool, and it could contribute to mutual fertilization among these communities.

Full text
Abstract:
Joint inversion of seismic AVA and CSEM data requires rock-physics relationships to link seismic attributes to electric properties. Ideally, we can connect them through reservoir parameters (e.g., porosity and water saturation) by developing physical-based models, such as Gassmann’s equations and Archie’s law, using nearby borehole logs. This could be difficult in the exploration stage because information available is typically insufficient for choosing suitable rock-physics models and for subsequently obtaining reliable estimates of the associated parameters. The use of improper rock-physics models and the inaccuracy of the estimates of model parameters may cause misleading inversion results. Conversely, it is easy to derive statistical relationships among seismic and electric attributes and reservoir parameters from distant borehole logs. In this study, we developed a Bayesian model to jointly invert seismic AVA and CSEM data for reservoir parameters using statistical rock-physics models; the spatial dependence of geophysical and reservoir parameters were carried out by lithotypes through Markov random fields. We applied the developed model to a synthetic case that simulates a CO2 monitoring application. We derived statistical rock-physics relations from borehole logs at one location and estimated seismic P- and S-wave velocity ratio, acoustic impedance, density, electric resistivity, lithotypes, porosity, and water saturation at three different locations by conditioning to seismic AVA and CSEM data. Comparison of the inversion results with their corresponding true values showed that the correlation-based statistical rock-physics models provide significant information for improving the joint inversion results.

Abstract:
In this thesis, I propose the following: - The P and S-wave velocities can provide a suitable link between reservoir parameters and rock properties using core, log and seismic data. - The pore aspect ratios as key parameters of rock geometry can be used to explain the different responses of elastic properties in clay-sand rocks (especially for thin and varying lithology formations). The use of fixed aspect ratio for physical velocity models will result in obvious errors in the prediction of elastic moduli and velocities (in particular for formations at shallow depth, or in loose and thin layers). - The time-average equation (Wyllie et al., 1956) ignored the effects of pore geometry, degree of consolidation fluid and clay content. It results in a hidden defect in the transformation between porosity (form core and well-log) and velocity (from seismic) when the rock contains clay. - The current models of Gassmann (1951), Kuster & Toksöz (1974) and Xu-White (1995) have some difficulties in calculating elastic moduli for rocks containing aligned pores and minerals in anisotropic formations. To investigate these, I first use method of multiple regression and artificial networks to establish an empirical correlation between reservoir parameters and P and S-wave velocities. This correlation includes porosity, clay content, aspect ratio and velocities, which can be used as an extension of the empirical model of Han et al (1956). Second, in order to overcome the weakness of empirical models, physically realistic theoretical models are established. The first theoretical model is the isotropic dual porosity model (IDP). The aim of the IDP is to develop a general rock physical model that provides a satisfactory integrated approach to the evaluation and prediction of reservoir parameters and rock properties for the purpose of reservoir characterization. Third, because the IDP model does not consider the effects of pore orientation, clay content and velocity anisotropy etc., a refined anisotropic dual porosity model (ADP) is then developed for anisotropic porous media.

This study focuses on characterizing subsurface rock formations of the Wellington Field, in Sumner County, Kansas, for both geosequestration of carbon dioxide (CO₂) in the saline Arbuckle formation, and enhanced oil recovery of a depleting Mississippian oil reservoir. Multi-scale data including rock core plug samples, laboratory ultrasonic P-&S-waves, X-ray diffraction, and well log data including sonic and dipole sonic, is integrated in an effort to evaluate existing rock physics models, with the objective of establishing a model that best represents our reservoir and/or saline aquifer rock formations. We estimated compressional and shear wave velocities of rock core plugs for a Mississippian reservoir and Arbuckle saline aquifer, based on first arrival times using a laboratory setup consisting of an Ult 100 Ultrasonic System, a 12-ton hydraulic jack, and a force gauge; the laboratory setup is located in the geophysics lab in Thompson Hall at Kansas State University. The dynamic elastic constants Young’s Modulus, Bulk Modulus, Shear (Rigidity) Modulus and Poisson’s Ratio have been calculated based on the estimated P- and S-wave velocity data. Ultrasonic velocities have been compared to velocities estimated based on sonic and dipole sonic log data from the Wellington 1-32 well. We were unable to create a transformation of compressional wave sonic velocities to shear wave sonic for all wells where compressional wave sonic is available, due to a lack of understandable patterns observed from a relatively limited dataset. Furthermore, saturated elastic moduli and velocities based on sonic and dipole sonic well logs, in addition to dry rock moduli acquired from core plug samples allowed for the testing of various rock physics models. These models predict effects of changing effective (brine + CO₂ +hydrocarbon) fluid composition on seismic properties, and were compared to known values to ensure accuracy, thus revealing implications for feasibility of seismic monitoring in the KGS 1-32 well vicinity.

Abstract:
The primary focus of this dissertation is to develop a predictive rock physics theory that establishes relations between rock properties and the observed seismic and to present the results of different seismic characterization techniques to interpret a tight gas sand reservoir off the south coast of South Africa using as input rock physics analysis and inverted seismic outcomes. To perform the aims and goals of this study a workflow that involves the execution of three main processes was implemented: (1) rock physics modelling, (2) a simultaneous seismic inversion, and (3) seismic reservoir characterization techniques. First, a rock physics model was generated as a bridge between the seismic observables (density, Vp and Vs) and reservoir parameters such as fluid content, porosity and mineralogy. In situ and perturbational log - derived forward modelling was performed. Both in situ and perturbational forward modelling were used to generate synthetic seismic gathers, which were used to study the AVA attribute responses. Overall, the effect of fluid fill on this tight gas sand seismically is modest compared with the effect of porosity changes. Second, there follows a detailed description of a workflow implemented to simultaneously invert P and S pre - stack seismic data. The derived elastic properties (acoustic impedance, Vp/Vs and density) were then used in combination with the rock physics analysis to characterize seismically the reservoir. The predicted acoustic impedance and Vp/Vs volumes show a good tie with the log data. However, the density outcome was of limited quality compared with the two mentioned above. Finally, using outcomes from rock physic s analysis and/or inverted data, four seismic techniques to characterize the reservoir were conducted. The techniques involved are: (1) AVO cross - plotting to generate a good facies property based on AVO attributes (intercept - gradient) and rock physics in the area of study , (2) rock physics templates (RPTs) to compute discrete rock property volumes (litho - Sw, litho - porosity) using a collection of curves that cover all possible "what if" lithology - fluid content - porosity scenarios for the reservoir and the inverted data, (3) a lithological classification to calculate litho - facies probability volumes based on a litho - facies classification using petrophysical cut - off s , multivariate probability functions (PDFs) and inverted data, and (4) an extended elastic impedance (EEI) inversion to derive rock property volumes (Vclay, porosity) based on AVO attributes (intercept, gradient). Despite differences in the input and theory behind each technique, all outcomes share parallels in the distribution of good and poor facies or reservoir and non - reservoir zones.

Abstract:
Static and dynamic interaction mechanism of the retained soil-compressible geofoam buffer and yielding retaining structures requires further investigation. The present study, initiated on this motive, discusses the results of 1-g physical model tests and numerical analyses of cantilever retaining walls with and without deformable geofoam buffers between the wall and cohesionless granular backfill. 0.7m high walls with various wall thicknesses were utilized in the physical modeling. Dynamic tests were carried out by using a laminar container placed on a uni-axial shaking table. Influence of buffer thickness, geofoam type and wall flexibility as well as base excitation characteristics on the lateral earth pressures and flexural wall deflections were under concern. Outcomes of the analyses performed with FLAC-2D (v6.0) finite difference code were validated against the results of the physical model tests. It was observed that the arching effect induced in the retained soil by the lateral compression of the lower half of the geofoam buffer has a positive effect, as this zone is able to absorb a portion of the total unbalanced lateral force exerted by the backfill thus causing a reduction in the static and seismic lateral wall pressures. Relative thickness and stiffness of the geofoam buffer appear to be the most dominant factors affecting the reduction in earth thrust. Lateral earth pressure coefficients determined from physical model tests were compared with those calculated using methods available in the literature. Good agreement was observed between the predictions. Graphs were provided to estimate the static and dynamic lateral earth pressure coefficients for various combinations of wall stiffness and buffer characteristics. Analysis of a 6m high prototype cantilever wall subjected to an excitation recorded in August 17, 1999 Kocaeli earthquake by finite difference method exhibited the contribution of geofoam buffers on seismic performance of cantilever earth retaining walls. It was observed that the presence of an EPS geofoam inclusion provides a reduction of the permanent flexural wall deflections as well as total seismic thrust likely to be experienced by the wall during an earthquake.

Abstract:
Les structures de combustion constituent un témoin de la fréquentation humaine et leur étude permet d'appréhender un aspect du mode d'occupation d'un lieu donné. Ainsi, pour compléter les approches classiques qui s'intéressent à la typologie des foyers, à la fréquence des feux, à la nature des combustibles, etc., une caractérisation thermique de ces structures a été proposée. Elle s'appuie sur les impacts thermiques enregistrés par les sédiments soumis aux feux et plus précisément sur les modifications des propriétés de thermoluminescence (TL) et de magnétisme avec la chauffe.Le site-laboratoire est celui de la grotte de Fraux (Dordogne), occupée à l'Âge du bronze, dont le statut et le mode d'occupation pose question puisqu'elle présente tant des vestiges domestiques (sols de circulation, foyers, mobiliers) que des vestiges symboliques (manifestations pariétales, dépôts de mobilier). La place importante des foyers parmi ces vestiges a induit une étude spécifique de ces structures. En effet, ce site recèle plus d'une soixantaine de structures de combustion et, aspect important pour notre approche archéométrique, présente un état de conservation exceptionnel puisque la grotte est restée fermée depuis l'occupation de l'Âge du bronze.L'étude de certains foyers de la grotte des Fraux a permis de tester le potentiel de paléothermomètres fondés sur ces deux propriétés indépendantes à savoir la TL des grains de quartz et le magnétisme des oxydes de fer contenus dans les sédiments. Le paléothermomètre TL a été élaboré en comparant les signaux TL d'échantillons provenant de foyers archéologiques à ceux de références thermiques chauffées en laboratoire. Pour le magnétisme deux pistes ont été exploitées : les températures de déblocage de l'aimantation rémanente et l'évolution de la signature magnétique -minéralogie et taille de grain) avec la chauffe. La détermination des paléotempératures atteintes par les sédiments substrats des structures de combustion apporte une première indication sur leur intensité de chauffe. Afin d'étalonner ces informations paléothermométriques en termes d'énergie mise en jeu, des feux expérimentaux ont été réalisés. Ils ont permis de comparer les impacts thermiques entre feux archéologiques et feux expérimentaux, de construire un échantillonnage d'histoire thermique connue, mais aussi d'estimer les températures atteintes, les épaisseurs de sédiments affectés, les quantités de combustibles consommés pendant un temps donné, la quantité d'énergie dégagée par la combustion... Ces expérimentations ont aussi servi de base à une modélisation de la propagation de la chaleur dans les sédiments. Les simulations effectuées dans ce modèle numérique permettent alors d'estimer un temps minimal de fonctionnement des structures de combustion.Nous disposons ainsi d'un nouvel outil pour la caractérisation thermique de foyers archéologiques.

Abstract:
Galileo Galilei was the first modern scientist, launching a new scientific method that superseded, after one and a half millennia, Aristotle’s physics. This chapter describes the trajectory of Galileo’s career, beginning with his studies of motion at the University of Pisa that were interrupted after his move to the University of Padua by his telescopic discoveries of mountains on the Moon and the moons of Jupiter. Galileo became the first rock star of science, and he used his fame to promote the ideas of Copernicus and the Sun-centered model of the solar system. But he pushed too far when he lampooned the Pope. Ironically, Galileo’s conviction for heresy and his sentence to house arrest for the remainder of his life gave him the free time to finally finish his work on the physics of motion, which he published in Two New Sciences in 1638.

Abstract:
The pioneering work of Gus Archie moved log interpretation into log analysis with the introduction of the equation that bears his name. Subsequent developments have mixed empiricism, physics, mathematical algorithms, and geological or engineering models as methods applied to petrophysical measurements in boreholes all over the world. Principles of Mathematical Petrophysics reviews the application of mathematics to petrophysics in a format that crystallizes the subject as a subdiscipline appropriate for the workstations of today. The subject matter is of wide interest to both academic and industrial professionals who work with subsurface data applied to energy, hydrology, and environmental issues. This book is the first of its kind, in that it addresses mathematical petrophysics as a distinct discipline. Other books in petrophysics are either extensive descriptions of tool design or interpretation techniques, typically in an ad hoc treatment. It covers mathematical methods that are applied to borehole and core petrophysical measurements to estimate rock properties of fluid saturation, pore types, permeability, mineralogy, facies, and reservoir characterization. These methods are demonstrated by a variety of case studies and summaries of applications. Principles of Mathematical Petrophysics is an invaluable resource for all people working with data related to petrophysics.

Abstract:
This work is based on the observation that further major advances in geochemistry, particularly in understanding the rules that govern the ways in which elements come together to form minerals and rocks, will require the application of the theories of quantum mechanics. The book therefore outlines this theoretical background and discusses the models used to describe bonding in geochemical systems. It is the first book to describe and critically review the application of quantum mechanical theories to minerals and geochemical systems. The book consolidates valuable findings from chemistry and materials science as well as mineralogy and geochemistry, and the presentation has relevance to professionals in a wide range of disciplines. Experimental techniques are surveyed, but the emphasis is on applying theoretical tools to various groups of minerals: the oxides, silicates, carbonates, borates, and sulfides. Other topics dealt with in depth include structure, stereochemistry, bond strengths and stabilities of minerals, various physical properties, and the overall geochemical distribution of the elements.

Full text
Abstract:
Heavy minerals (HMs) are minerals with a specific gravity greater than 2.9 g/cm3. They are commonly highly resistant to physical and chemical weathering, and therefore persist in sediments as lasting indicators of the (former) presence of the rocks they formed in. The presence/absence of certain HMs, their associations with other HMs, their concentration levels, and the geochemical patterns they form in maps or 3D models can be indicative of geological processes that contributed to their formation. Furthermore trace element and isotopic analyses of HMs have been used to vector to mineralisation or constrain timing of geological processes. The positive role of HMs in mineral exploration is well established in other countries, but comparatively little understood in Australia. Here we present the results of a pilot project that was designed to establish, test and assess a workflow to produce a HM map (or atlas of maps) and dataset for Australia. This would represent a critical step in the ability to detect anomalous HM patterns as it would establish the background HM characteristics (i.e., unrelated to mineralisation). Further the extremely rich dataset produced would be a valuable input into any future machine learning/big data-based prospectivity analysis. The pilot project consisted in selecting ten sites from the National Geochemical Survey of Australia (NGSA) and separating and analysing the HM contents from the 75-430 µm grain-size fraction of the top (0-10 cm depth) sediment samples. A workflow was established and tested based on the density separation of the HM-rich phase by combining a shake table and the use of dense liquids. The automated mineralogy quantification was performed on a TESCAN® Integrated Mineral Analyser (TIMA) that identified and mapped thousands of grains in a matter of minutes for each sample. The results indicated that: (1) the NGSA samples are appropriate for HM analysis; (2) over 40 HMs were effectively identified and quantified using TIMA automated quantitative mineralogy; (3) the resultant HMs’ mineralogy is consistent with the samples’ bulk geochemistry and regional geological setting; and (4) the HM makeup of the NGSA samples varied across the country, as shown by the mineral mounts and preliminary maps. Based on these observations, HM mapping of the continent using NGSA samples will likely result in coherent and interpretable geological patterns relating to bedrock lithology, metamorphic grade, degree of alteration and mineralisation. It could assist in geological investigations especially where outcrop is minimal, challenging to correctly attribute due to extensive weathering, or simply difficult to access. It is believed that a continental-scale HM atlas for Australia could assist in derisking mineral exploration and lead to investment, e.g., via tenement uptake, exploration, discovery and ultimately exploitation. As some HMs are hosts for technology critical elements such as rare earth elements, their systematic and internally consistent quantification and mapping could lead to resource discovery essential for a more sustainable, lower-carbon economy.
