Analyzing the Influence of Natural Fractures
Our FracEvSight™ fracture evaluation product is focussed on utilizing oriented borehole image for geological interpretation. Their evaluation give us the ability to see surfaces and geometric patterns (biogenic/diagenetic sedimentary structures and coarse grained fabrics). Surface interpretation allows us to identify sedimentary beds and their thickness, natural fractures, faults and even in some cases sedimentary structures (cross bedding, lamination, etc). Fractures are identified and analyzed in terms of azimuth, dip angle, vertical distribution, fracture sets and meaningful fracture parameters are computed (such as fracture density).Bed boundaries mapping allow evaluation of their potential control over fracture distribution. If present, micro-macro deformation structures (folds and faults) are also interpreted to investigate further control over fracture distribution. If available, lithology information can also be integrated to evaluate the potential control over fracture distribution.
