Thrall Oilfield Survey Project, Texas - Case Study
In January 2012, we performed seismoelectric survey at 3 sites in Thrail Oilfield. The seismoelectric signals in #3 site indicated that there is no oil reservoir. In April, the drilling company drilled at this point and only got a dry-hole. However, we detected the oil reservoir at #1 and #2 sites based on seismoelectric signals. Then in October, the report from the same drilling company show ...

The seismoelectric effect: A nonisochoric streaming current: 2. Theory and its experimental verification
Propagation of ultrasound waves through a porous body saturated with liquid generates an electric response. This electroacoustic effect is called the “seismoelectric current”; the reverse phenomenon, where an electric field is the driving force, is known as the “electroseismic current”. The seismoelectric current can be measured with existing electroacoustic devices that were originally designed ...

Seismoelectric survey project for oil and gas exploration in Mangistau Oilfield, Kazakhstan - Case Study
The seismoelectric survey was conducted by Seismo Electronics LLC in November, 2015. After our survey, seismoelectric data from measurement points nearby proposed location do not show promising hydrocarbon reservoir and their signal anomalies are even weaker compare to anomalies from two existed wells. We didn't recommend drilling in this proposed location, but our client is interested in a ...

Seismoelectric effect: A non-isochoric streaming current. 1. Experiment
Propagation of ultrasound through a porous body saturated with liquid generates an electric response. This electroacoustic effect is called the “seismoelectric current”; the reverse process, when an electric field is the driving force, is called the “electroseismic current.” Seismoelectric currents can be measured with electroacoustic devices originally designed for characterizing liquid ...

Beaver Dam Groundwater Survey Project, Utah - Case Study
In May 2014, we conducted seismoelectric survey for Willowstick Technologies LLC in Beaver Dam area, Utah, USA. According to our client’s requirement, we designed 3 seismoelectric survey lines, with total 50 measurement stations. After data processing and interpretation, we located 3 layers of aquifers. The red layers are the top and bottom of the first aquifer; the green ones for the ...

A method for pore size and porosity analysis of porous materials using electroacoustics and high frequency conductivity
Electroacoustic measurement of the seismoelectric current generated by ultrasound in wetted porous materials yields information on pore size in certain situations. This occurs when electric double layers inside the pore overlap or when the pore size is sufficiently large that for a given frequency the hydrodynamic flow cannot achieve a steady Pousille profile inside of the pores. Indeed, we show ...

Seismoelectric survey project for oil, gas and water exploration in Shengli Oilfield, China - Case Study
In January 2015, Seismo Electronics LLC. completed the seismoelectric survey project for its client-Sinopec Shengli Oilfield Company. Our geophysicists used our instrument to detect reservoir 2000-4000m below ground surface. We provided three recommended drilling locations to our client, which all match the client’s existed reservoir analysis results. Our seismoelectric survey successfully ...

Fracture Area Groundwater Survey, Llano, Texas - Case Study
In April 2011, our client had four unsuccessful drilling wells before our company participated in this project at Blackjack Ranch, Llano. After geological analysis, we conducted the seismoelectric survey along the fracture direction and provided our client a well location with 5 gallon/hour water production which proved by later ...

Haiti Groundwater Survey Project - Case Study
We already have done over 230 survey sites with DC-4500 Ground-flow Locator in Haiti with 95% success rate since 2011. More than 230 water wells were drilled and most of seismoelectric surveys were performed in ...

Seismoelectric survey project for oil, gas and water exploration in Shengli Oilfield, China - Case Study
Seismo Electronics LLC. has recently finished a project for its client-Sinopec Shengli Oilfield Company. This project, which has over 8000 acre survey area, has been in the works since January, 2015. Our geophysicists used our instrument to detect reservoir 2000-4000m below ground surface. We provided three recommended drilling locations to our client, which all match the client’s existed ...
