Abstract

Induction and short normal log concepts will be compared to SV and SH particle motion vector concepts from a vertical-force source to propose the SV wavefieldvelocity / SH wavefield-velocity (VSV / VSH) ratio attribute in identification of fracture sweet spots in densely fractured reservoirs such as in the Marcellus Formation, Pennsylvania, USA.
