Report on Optimization of Seafloor Deployments for Permanent Reservoir Monitoring
Abstract
This report addresses how distributed fibre-optic sensing can be used for monitoring of CO2 storage processes, and more specifically how it compares to conventional seismic data. It focusses on shallow subsurface characterization (uppermost 100 m below seabed), and high resolution and high frequency seismic data. Our main conclusion is that distributed acoustic sensing in our experiment gives comparable results to those obtained from shallow seismic methods.
