    Abstract: A method is described for monitoring a stimulated reservoir volume (SRV) including receiving simulation parameters, performing 3D fully coupled quasi-static poro-elastic finite difference modeling using the simulation parameters, wherein the 3D fully coupled quasi-static poro-elastic finite difference modeling is based on a rescaling of solid rock and fluid flow density parameters and generates simulated temporal quasi-static stresses, and pore pressure. In addition, simulated stresses may be used for performing calculation of the 3D rotation of the simulated stresses to principal directions; performing calculation of the temporal 3D Mohr-Coulomb (MC) failure criteria from the calculated principal stresses and the simulated pore pressure for all or selected time steps; and displaying the computed temporal MC failure criteria results on a graphical display. The method may also be used in time-lapse monitoring of the reservoir for microseismic depletion delineation.

    Abstract: A method is described for generating a subsurface model using stochastic full waveform inversion by receiving a seismic dataset representative of a subsurface volume of interest; performing stochastic full waveform inversion of the seismic dataset to generate a long wavelength subsurface model; and performing full waveform inversion of the seismic dataset using the long wavelength subsurface model as a starting model to generate an improved subsurface model. The method may further include performing seismic imaging of the seismic dataset using the improved subsurface model to generate a seismic image and identifying geologic features based on the seismic image. The method may be executed by a computer system.

    Abstract: A method is described for property estimation including receiving a seismic dataset representative of a subsurface volume of interest and a well log from a well location within the subsurface volume of interest; identifying seismic traces in the seismic dataset that correspond to the well location to obtain a subset of seismic traces; windowing the subset of seismic traces and the well log to generate windowed seismic traces and a windowed well log; multiplying the windowed seismic traces and the windowed well log by a random matrix to generate a plurality of training datasets; and training a neural network using the plurality of training datasets. The method may be executed by a computer system.
