PetroLocate is the brainchild of the founders of AquaLocate (www.AquaLocate.com). PetroLocate is dedicated to the development and distribution of the next generation of 𝙤𝙞𝙡 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙜𝙖𝙨 𝙚𝙭𝙥𝙡𝙤𝙧𝙖𝙩𝙞𝙤𝙣 𝙚𝙦𝙪𝙞𝙥𝙢𝙚𝙣𝙩 using Seismoelectric technology originally developed in the UK.
A method of acquiring seismoelectric (electrokinetic) signals has been developed using isolated lines from each electrode pair, referencing of their potentials to a floating virtual earth, and positioning of the pairs close to the seismic source, which achieves a substantial improvement in signal to noise. Seismoelectric signals occur when fast p-waves intersect interfaces where the anelastic properties change (e.g. permeability, porosity, fluid conductivity, fluid viscosity, or ionic concentration). Such interfaces generate various types of slow p-waves, which decay very rapidly generating heat and electrical signals; additionally the rise time of the seismoelectric signal is inversely proportional to the permeability change. Seismoelectric survey (SES) acquisition at the surface can measure the electrical fields from decaying slow waves and infer the change in anelastic properties at interfaces as a consequence. The inversion of surface data is aided by the focusing of the seismoelectric potentials about the shot point, allowing small offset electrode pair receivers to be used. For symmetry reasons this “sounding mode” arrangement simplifies acquisition and inversion and can be used repeatedly along profile lines or on grids producing images of subsurface permeability or porosity.
The signal files are processed to give a sounding plot of permeability and porosity against one-way seismic travel time. Values for a simple seismic velocity model are required to allow time-to-depth conversion. The resulting logs against depth are displayed in the field, allowing the surveying program to be modified according to the observations. Once all the data is collected the PetroLocate software can be used to automatically create 2D models of the processes seismoelectric data.
Operators from around the world have been using the original Seismoelectric technology developed by two former BP exploration Geophysicists, for nearly two decades. PetroLocate has taken the very successful Seismoelectric technology and completely redesigned it to be used to detect and quantify resistive liquids (oil, gas and fresh water) to depths of over 2000m.
PetroLocate Provides:
Worldwide sales of the seismoelectric PL14 (oil, natural gas and geothermal) exploration technology, used to detect mobile resistive liquids including oil, gas and fresh water up to approximately 3000m (approximately 10,000ft) when acceptable testing conditions are present. Exploration with our technology can eliminate the cost and time traditional exploration technology requires.
PL14 Initial Training covering practical use of the seismoelectric PL14 system, data collection and interpretation.
Post Training PL14 data interpretation (full reports or data interpretation assistance)
Infield consultation and exploration surveys
