About this book

Seismic While Drilling: Fundamentals of Drill-Bit Seismic for Exploration, 2nd edition, revised and extended gives a theoretical and practical introduction to seismic while drilling by using drill-bit noise. While drilling seismic methods using surface sources and downhole receivers are also analysed. The goal is to support the exploration geology with geophysical control of drilling, and to build a bridge between geophysicists involved in seismic while drilling, drillers and exploration geologists. This revised and extended edition includes new topics such as novel drilling technology, downhole communication, ground-force drill-bit measurement, SWD seismic interferometry, and fiber optic (DAS). A new section is dedicated to well placement and geosteering. Like the first edition, Seismic While Drilling, 2nd edition also includes examples of SWD analysis and application on real data. - Addresses fundamental knowledge on geophysical principles related to acoustics and seismic waves as well as basic borehole waves and drilling - Includes new technological and methodological developments since the publication of the first edition - Provides new examples for applications in geothermal and analysis of diffractions, offshore marine, and tunnel seismic while drilling (TSWD)
