A case study of azimuthal AVO analysis with anisotropic spreading correction
Geomechanical properties of tight, low-porosity reservoirs are largely governed by natural fracture networks. Hence, reliable estimation of fracture density and orientation is extremely important for cost-effective hydraulic completion and hydrocarbon production. Direct information about fracturing can be obtained using borehole methods, such as image log analysis, which provide estimates of fracture counts and orientations on various scales. The main shortcoming of borehole measurements is that they are sensitive only to formation properties in the immediate vicinity of the well. In some cases, the spatial distribution of fractures can be inferred from fault maps obtained by coherence analysis of surface seismic data. However, the correlation between areas of high fracture density and fault locations is not always straightforward.
Controlled Source Electromagnetic Interferometry by Multidimensional Deconvolution – Spatial Sampling Aspects
We review electromagnetic interferometry by multidimensional deconvolution (MDD) and investigate its sensitivity to spatial sampling. Two Sea Bed Logging datasets were modeled numerically. One represents a shallow sea situation with a small vertical sourc
Morphological characterization of Eustrongylides sp. larvae (Nematoda, Dioctophymatoidea) parasite of Rhinella marina (Amphibia: Bufonidae) from Eastern Amazonia.
Absctract Eustrongylides spp. nematodes have birds as final hosts and uses other vertebrates as intermediate/paratenic host (fish, amphibians and reptiles) and have zoonotic potential. In amphibians, the larvae may be located in the subcutaneous tissues, liver and mesentery, between the muscle fibres, especially in the lower limbs. Rhinella marina, which is widely observed in Brazil, has exhibited complex diversity in its helminth fauna, reflecting the unique habitat of the Amazon biome. For the first time, this study describes the morphological aspects of third-stage larvae of Eustrongylides sp. in Rhinella marina from Santa Cruz do Ararí, Marajó Archipelago, Eastern Amazonia, using light and scanning electron microscopy.
