Workshop 8

Elastic FWI What For? Monday, June 2nd |

Convenors

  • Bertrand Duquet (TotalEnergies)
  • Gilles Lambaré (Viridien)
  • René-Edouard (Plessix)

Description

With the constant increase of HPC capabilities, elastic FWI has rapidly progressed over the last decade and is today used at industrial scale. Elastic FWI however covers different levels of complexity: from modeling only partly the elastic propagation (e.g. only in major model heterogeneity such as salt bodies), elastic propagation but limited to inversion of model perturbations using only P component of data, to the full multi-parameter elastic inversion of multi-component data at the reservoir inversion scale. The level of complexity used depends on the objective to achieve – from improved structural imaging to precise reservoir characterization – and on the type of seismic acquisitions considered (land/marine, mono-component/multi-component). We propose during this workshop to focus on assessing the added value of elastic versus acoustic FWI in terms of velocity model building and imaging.

Participant Profile

Researchers, practitioners, students, and decision makers interested in better understanding the value and challenges of elastic FWI.
