Abstract

We present processing methods and results from a passive low-frequency (LF) seismic campaign over a giant producing oil field in Abu Dhabi. Processing methods include ambient wave field analysis and the mitigation of the influence of anthropogenic infrastructure noise. Without careful processing to remove these components of the ambient wave field, data are strictly measures of human activity. However, spatially and temporally consistent energy anomalies on the vertical component cluster within the center of the survey area. Available current reservoir data show some correlation with the energy attributes calculated with two different methods.
