The success of drilling oil and gas wells is largely determined by the presence of high HC-content and permeability of the reservoir at the point of penetration. For a reliable study of these characteristics should be used microseismic emission and the scattered reflection waves. For their observation, selection and positioning in geomedium we developed technology “Seismic Location of Emission Centers” and “Side-View Seismic Location”, which significantly extend the range of problems solved during seismic exploration of hydrocarbon deposits. Examples of application of these technologies in the exploration and development of hydrocarbon deposits are provided.
