| Summary | This book addresses the practical aspects of multi-component data acquisition, processing, and interpretation. The first part is devoted to overcoming the difficulties associated with shear-wave acquisition. The second part reviews the processing and the main challenges of the shear-converted modes: static corrections, gathering, velocity analysis, and compensation for shear-wave splitting in axial anisotropy. The third part is devoted to case histories in which new attributes, such as VP/VS ratio, crack density, or fracture orientation, are illustrated in a reservoir-characterisation context. |
