Weighted correlation tomography for Fluid Flow Electromagnetic method


Abstract
Fluid Flow Electromagnetic (FFEM) method is a geophysical method to monitor dynamic behavior of subsurface fluid e.g. petroleum, geothermal fluid and groundwater. A new program to calculate 3-D FFEM tomogram was developed in order to evaluate observed electromagnetic field due to subsurface fluid flow. This program is based on the correlation tomography that has low computation cost. A new algorithm using weighted factor was used to improve accuracy of tomography result. Some examples of 3-D FFEM tomography are shown in this paper.
