Seismic While Drilling: Fundamentals of Drill-Bit Seismic for Exploration

Seismic While Drilling: Fundamentals of Drill-Bit Seismic for Exploration, Second Edition gives a theoretical and practical introduction to seismic while drilling by using drill-bit noise. The goal is to support the geophysical control of drilling, and to build a bridge between geophysicists involved in seismic while drilling and drillers. This revised and extended edition includes new topics such as novel drilling technology, downhole communication, ground-force drill-bit measurement, and SWD seismic interferometry. Like the first edition, Seismic While Drilling, 2nd edition also includes real-life examples of SWD data analysis and application.
