Observation Of Continuous Fracturing In Crosshole Seismic Experiments In Crystalline Rock
Abstract
Crosshole seismic data were gathered in a metamorphic section. These data exhibited anomalous events that were ultimately attributed to the interaction of tube waves and converted tube waves with a continuous fracture connecting the transmitter and receiver boreholes. The pattern of the anomaly is distinctive and easily recognized in a crosshole seismic section and might prove to be useful in the evaluation of high volume inter-borehole fluid communication, or in the assessment of hydrofracture effectiveness.
