Fluid Characterization using 4D Simultaneous AVO and Rock Physics Inversion
This paper outlines a case study of a quantitative workflow using 4D simultaneous AVO and 4D rock physics inversion to detect changes in the spatial distribution of the steam chamber and heated bitumen in the subsurface. A 4D McMurray oil-sands dataset is analysed, with 7 years between start of steaming and production, and acquisition of the monitor survey.
