국내 대륙붕 제 6-1광구 고래 I지역에 대한 AVO분석 (OFFSET에 따른 진폭변화 연구: 주로 유체성분분석)을 수행하였다. 특히, 관심을 끌었던 고래 I지역의 다층에 대한 AVO 분석결과, 물을 함유한 층인, 다층에서는 가스를 함유한 저류층인 가층에 비해 가스를 함유할 가능성이 더 높게 나타났다. 하지만, 시추결과에 따르면 다층은 물로 채워진 층으로 판명되었다. 본 연구에서는, 가스를 함유하지 않은 다층이 더 뚜렷한 AVO 현상을 나타나게 된 원인을 분석 및 고찰하였다. 그 방법으로 다양한 AVO 분석 방법 (PxG stack, psedo-Poisson's ratio stack, Scaled-S-Wave reflectivity stack 분석 법 및 Cross Plot등)을 통해 가스층과 물을 함유한 층의 분류 가능성에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 그 결과, 일반적인 AVO 분석 방법에 의해서는 가스층과 물을 함유한층의 분류가 어려웠다. 따라서, AVO 분석시 나타나는 AVO 현상에 대한 심도있는 고찰을 위해서는 AVO 모델링 기법의 적용을 고려해 볼 수 있으며, 이를 통해 탐사 위험도를 낮출 수 있을 것으로 기대된다. 또한 새로운 유망구조에 대한 상기 AVO 분석방법을 적용하여 유망구조의 가스함유 가능성에 대한 연구가 가능할 것으로 판단된다. 그 실례로, 고래 I지역에 대한 새로운 유망구조에서의 가스 함유가능성에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 연구 방법으로는 상기에서 언급한 다양한 AVO 분석 방법을 적용하였으며, 그 결과 유망구조에서의 가스 발견 가능성은 높은 것으로 사료된다. 따라서, 향후, 가스층 탐사시 (물론, 연구결과 얻어진 가능성에 대한 시추결과가 있어야 하겠지만)축적된 AVO 분석기법을 적용 시 석유탐사에서 위험률 제고에 기여할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.

This paper shows that crosshole seismic survey allows to detect even a small size of underground tunnel (about 2m$\times$2m). Such a small tunnel (e.g. infiltration tunnel) causes diffraction, as the seismic wave propagates, which results in distinctive variations of traveltime and amplitude of the first arrivals. This effect (or tunnel effect) is a typical indicator for the existence of tunnel and thereby an information about the tunnel location can be obtained. It was shown that the tunnel effect illustrated by numerical modeling (FDM) could be also observed in field measurements. The depth and shape of the tunnel were determined by a simplified processing method based on the use of amplitude variation of the first arrivals. The estimated location of the tunnel was well matched to that of the real tunnel.

A field experiment generating shear waves by trench method was conducted at two places in Taejun area. We were able to separate the P- and S-waves by summing and subtracting the vertical and horizontal component of the data recorded at a three component downhole geophone in the borehole. The analysis of the records revealed that the shear waves were polarized to NS and EW directions. The faster shear waves were polarized to NS direction. The NS direction generally agrees with the dominant joints direction observed from the cores collected from the borehole.

The finite element method combined with the sensitivity method is adopted for 2-dimensionl Fourier transform inversion. To improve the efficiency of inversion calculation, multi-resolution wavelet method is proposed., Theoretical data which is obtained from above method is shown to examine the proposed method. Theoretical model assumes that underground cavity is located in limestone area. In theoretical model, 16 current and potential electrodes are located to get theoretical data. It is shown that the about inversion method is very exact and useful calculation method, in case the larger model is very small such as under ground cavity.

Diffraction tomography (DT) is a quantitative technique for high resolution subsurface imaging. In general DT algorithm is used for crosswell imaging. In this study high resolution GPR DT algorithm which is able to reconstruct high resolution image of subsurface structures in multi-monostatic geometry is developed. Developed algorithm is applied to finite difference data and its criteria of application and its limit are studied. Inversion parameters (number of imaging frequency, regularization factor, frequency range) are deduced from isolated weak scattering model. And the usuability of the algorithm is proved by applying to models which break the weak scattering approximation.

In order to effectively, and accurately assess seawater intrusion in coastal area, multidisciplinary data including geophysical, well logging, and hydrogeochemical data should be managed in systematical way. Such systematical management of data is critical key to improve the re-usability of the data as well as the accuracy of the assessment by means of providing a method of synthetic analysis. Therefore, for systematical management of multidisciplinary data in seawater intrusion problem, we have developed a database management system and 3-D visualization interface based on geographic information system in this, study. All geophysical survey, well logging, hydrochemical, as well as drilling, data are classified as attribute data using Microsoft Access, and joined with spatial information based on ArcView. The database management system and 3-D visualization interface to handle these data, also, developed using the script language of ArcView. We think the development of database and 3-D visualization system will improve the efficiency of data management, user-friendliness of data access, and accuracy of data analysis.

The Sambo mine is located in Hae-je Myeon, Moo-an Gun, Chollanamdo, which consists of host gneiss and rhyolite possessing quartzite veins with other compositions such as gold, silver, and sublimated sulfur. The ore grade estimated from the core was 0.05～10.9g/t or less in gold and 0.05～389g/t or less in silver, indicating a partial mineralization. The purpose of this paper is to understand the subsurface structures and the distribution of mineralized bodies in the Sambo mine using a combined method of Schlumberger, Wenner, and Dipole-di-pole resistivity surveys on the surface and the resistivity tomography survey in boreholes. The result of three-dimensional resistivity inversion showed that the mineralized body is extended to 240m long in the N10°～20°E direction, with 30m wide and 80 m thick from the surface. The low resistivity zones (<1,000ohm-m) determined from the resistivity image were in good agreement with the mineralized bodies and weak zones identified from the logged cores.

In this study, we have developed a 3-D visualization program that is helpful in the interpretation or comparisons of geologic and geophysical data, which have been acquired to understand the cause of ground subsidence in the residential area and to establish reinforcement strategy. The visualization program was developed under the Windows operating system for convenient use and easy understanding. It uses Visual C++ for the Graphic User Interface and the OpenGL for graphic handling. Since this program is user-friendly, even users who do not have the basic idea about GIS or CAD can get very useful information with this program. The applicability of the program has been verified by visualizing the real core log and resistivity tomography images obtained from the ground subsidence area. These results have shown that the program is very useful for comparisons of these two data for the interpretation of subsurface structures.

In order to estimate the hydrocarbon reserves, the porosity of the reservoir must be determined. The porosity of the area without a well is generally calculated by extrapolating the porosity logs measured at wells. However, if not only well logs but also seismic data exist on the same site, the more accurate pseudo porosity log can be obtained through artificial neural network technique by extracting the relations between the seismic data and well logs at the site. In this study, we have developed a module which creates pseudo porosity logs by using the polynomial neural network method. In order to obtain more accurate pseudo porosity logs, we selected the seismic attributes which have high correlation values in the correlation analysis between the seismic attributes and the porosity logs. Through the training procedure between selected seismic attributes and well logs, our module produces the correlation weights which can be used to generate the pseudo porosity log in the well free area. To verify the reliability and the applicability of the developed module, we have applied the module to the field data acquired from F3 Block in the North Sea and compared the results to those from the probabilistic neural network method in a commercial program. We could confirm the reliability of our module because both results showed similar trend. Moreover, since the pseudo porosity logs from polynomial neural network method are closer to the true porosity logs at the wells than those from probabilistic method, we concluded that the polynomial neural network method is effective for the data sets with insufficient wells such as F3 Block in the North Sea.

Until recently, limestone yield production is mainly depend on geological investigation and boring. In the study seismic and electrical method are applied to calculate the basic data of limestone yield production. the result of geophysical prospecting, the depth of bed rock is approximately 17m. And there is a slightly difference between the limestone layer boundary which is drawn by electrical prospecting method and that of geological investigation.
